@AmigaDave,

Yes, it's as @Piru suggested I had the same password for all my main Amigan forums.  Fortunately I use other passwords for everthing else. I have now made all the passwords different.

Anyway, it's good to be back as me. ;-)

When is the A-Eon website going to be updated?
It has the same info on it that was there over a year ago.
Eh! I think you had better look again.

I'd just like to point out in as much a non-trollish fashion as I can how Trevor is doing it RIGHT in regards to comms with the Amiga user base...

Glad things got fixed and best of luck!

Good to hear it was a hoax and I'm glad it was sorted out before I even knew anything about it.

I don't mean to start a witch hunt, but thinking more generally on this whole incident, it seems as though we've got a real sociopath somewhere in our midst. Someone went to the bother of compromising Trevor's account(s) and simultaneously cross-posting at all the Amiga forums. We've all got our preferences and subtle (or not so subtle) biases regarding the various post-Classic machines, but the level of effort required for this hack of an infinitesimally small community is symptomatic of someone in need of a mental health intervention. In the grand scheme of things, the Amiga just isn't worth it.

Obviously someone who doesn't want OS4 and the AmigaOne X1000 to succeed. To announce that Trevor was quitting it's a clear sign.

@Trevor

I had personaly just assumed you had switched companys, taken up acting and been advertising a well known brand of UK breakfast cereal.

No, it's not him. But I suspect it's the same guy who goes though all the AmigaOS 4 YouTube videos and gives them dislikes.
If he have the time to do this, then he have the time for other shady activities.

More likely it was just done for the laughs than anything else. Or as others describe it, "for teh lulz!!11!".
