Presumably the "amiga community" are users of the classic Amiga systems, plus the next gen Amiga replacements like aOS 4.x, Morphos, AROS, plus the emulators (both soft like UAE and hard like fpga arcade).  I don't know about the Anubis/ARIX folks, but they seem to have returned to hiding so it may not be an issue.


Hiding?   Nah just busy :)

Who in God's name is mikeymike? I've been here since the beginning and not seen him before.

Is he a new moderator?


He's been here forever. :P

@usual suspects



some of these posts are absolutely hilarious. i would just suggest that, before we start running from imaginary black helicopters, maybe we just enjoy the forum as we always have? you know, wait for for all of this evil to actually occur before complaining about it? :roflmao:

could you at least choose a more stylish one?




:P

Historically, One of the most popular ways to get threads *quickly removed out of people's sight*, was to have a few controlled people posting several Off Topic posts in a thread. This rendered a "valid" reason for a moderator to remove the thread altogether as "off topic".

"could you at least choose a more stylish one?" *IS* off topic. And this could render moderators as "Amigadave" to delete..., well, whatever in the thread, according to his perceived view of... well, maybe "decency"? Fairness?

Maybe this was your intention?

/me putting on a *thicker* tin foil hat, the last one obviously didn't work!


It is totally on topic ... We're talking about the future of a.org. That discussion itself is a conspiracy theory.   That led to the tin foil hat which is people claim is worn by conspiracy theorists.   And then came my post which was merely about the fact that maybe some of those conspiracy theorists prefer to be stylish.  

Maybe it's you who is trying to derail the thread so it goes into the sock drawer?
/me puts on tin foil 10 gallon hat.

Anyway I figure I'll give them the benefit of the doubt for a little while.  Even if they have a certain person with a mod badge who I wouldn't mind if he rage quit and never showed up again.


On that note maybe that's why he's banning people over on awn to force them to post over here?

In the meantime, the ads have been removed. That's very welcome because, before the ownership change I started getting the occasional virus/malware warning when visiting this site. I have no doubt that this malware was being injected via the ads.



Thanks for pointing that out.  Btw google search results work again. :)

This thread is hilarious! All these conspiracy theories!  :laughing:

I'm curious. Do you guys think we landed on the moon or do you think it was faked?



Not sure maybe?  I still want to know if it's made of cheese though.

Btw maybe your cat doesn't like you because it's not really a cat but a guinea pig?  Just saying it's possible. :P

Hi, there is a glitch on the home page in the stats section you should take a look at. It's showing secret moderator threads we are not supposed to see so i thought i should report it (but not before i had fun reading them). For example: amigadave is getting hammered on his birthday so he wont be around, moderation policies, amigadave is coming back because he likes the new owners, etc.

Also thanks for clearing out the spam blogs.

Amigadave is coming back?  Great they can cancel my account now.
