I actually do not blame him.  I mean, do some of you people actually read the crap you post?!  Or do you enjoy talking crap about people, who are not here to defend themselves, or spreading lies and rumors about other people with absolutely no legal evidence to support any of your claims.  If I was the Admin, many of you would have been kicked out long time ago.  I really do hate gossipers and trouble-makers, they are the worst scum on the earth.  I will not mention any names, because you people know who you are.

Actually i have always felt things on here have always been melodramatic. The best way to solve this is not respond actively and instead just laugh it off  :lol:

I mean, this is a community where lots of people interact. There is bound to be disagreements at some point about something. OK Transition had a minor lapse in sanity - who cares? It happens to the best of us. My point is for all the people threatening to leave this site just because of this - stop be melodramatic.

Thank you for this surprise gift Transition! I'm still kind of shell shocked, this news caught me by complete surprise. I know owning the site stressed you sometimes and I'm sure everyone appreciated you saving it in 2009. I will work hard to make you and Amiga.org members proud.

Not necessarily - to me it seemed to be spot on until I read in your latest comment that you meant it in a different way than I thought. ;-)

Thanks for your time Transition. I had wished for another turn of events but the decision is not mine, you have done a lot and will not be forgotten.

Pyromania, I hope you take great care of a.org and I hope the whole mess with Aladdin will sort out somehow.

Tedd always found this conspiracy theory funny but I never did. If you think about it for a second it makes no sense. When I took over Aladdin 4D at the end of 2007 I immediately let everyone know. If I could have afforded to buy Amiga.org in 2009 I would have done the same thing. I'm well known in the Amiga community for many years. There would be 0 motivation on my part to say someone else bought it, someone few in the community know unless that was the case.

Quote from: SysAdmin;702157
Effective 12:00 CST time I'm retiring my post from Amiga.org. My tired old bones just can't keep up with this anymore. I'm not closing the site down but instead giving the site to Bill Panagouleas (Pyromania) as a gift. I hope this in some way makes up for his sadness and hurt over the Aladdin 4D deal. It was not my place to speak out in public about a matter that was discussed with me in private. I hope Deron can find it in his heart to work things out with Bill but if not it's my last wish that my gift of Amiga.org to Bill will restore his joy, enthusiasm and hope for a brighter future for Amiga, MorphOS & AROS. It was his idea to save Amiga.org in the first place, I was but a wallet that allowed it to happen. I hate long goodbyes so will keep this short.

Good luck Bill and enjoy my gift to you, please always keep your members happy. I have learned from my experience here and wish all members, mods and anyone I have missed the best. I have asked that this account be renamed to something else and will no longer post from it. Anyone needing to contact me for some reason can do so via e-mail.

Best wishes

- Tedd

I guess I missed something. Who DO they belong to after August 4, 2012?

As the new owner it is a Site Administrative account that I now control. I renamed it SysAdmin so it's not confused with Transitions old account and posts.

Hey Pyro, I hope that you have good luck running this site, I certainly will remain around...

Need a part for a PC or Mac? PM me, I\'ll let you know if I come across it.

OS X trumps Windows on every level.

MorphOS, OS4 and Classic Amiga systems are the only ones who are real \'Amigas\', not that joke AROS or Amiga Forever.

How about you just leave it with the original name so people don't get confused, then just never use it?
