05 Clear Screen.

10 Wow.

20 In the interest of maintaining sanity (to all), I suggest nobody read or add anything to this thread.

30 Show some respect and patience already.

40 No reason why A.org has to be turned into some cats litter box.

50 I'm very saddened how this turned out, especially for Wayne and Jens.

60 And Tone007... c'mon - surely not so. Or was that in some kind of retaliatory faux pas? Nevermind.

70 goto line 20 and STOP  ;)  lol

It's not as good as the Indivision AGA, and not just because of the lack of AGA.

This thread is developing a nasty overtone.

If this site was ever to close down, we would all be screwed.  

Let's get everything in perspective here.

I agree, as I am proud of my zero post count on amigaworld and don't even have a sign on for amigans.net. The level of idiocy seems to increase on both of these sites and make me feel if I posted I would soon be banned*.

Personally I couldn't give a flying F**K who owns amiga.org, Wayne has done a fantastic job especially considering he lost interest in the amiga years ago (something that I can personaly understand as i tend to drift in and out of amiga use). If the new owner doesn't want to come public that's up to him/her. I'm far more worried about the level of personal data that google collects about me than anything I've ever posted on this site.

*especially when I've been drinking like now :)

Until such time, flatly stated.  "I'm sorry, you're wrong, thanks for playing".  :)

Wayne

OK :)

Can I just point that I don't want my account closed, nor do I mind who owns Amiga.org, nor will it stop me from being an active member here.

I'm just a curious cat, so I looked up the relevant policies and presented them as I interpreted them.. since I wanted to know who the new owners were :) I tried!

Edit: Cammy, you're welcome on both. AW has a culture of people who speak their mind, however harsh their comments may be, and expect the same done back to them.. I personally try to be polite so I don't get people jumping down my throat.. but I don't mind a good argument every now and then. We all miss you on IRC too.

Deleted.

I suggest this thread be locked as it is serving no useful purpose any longer.  I think that everyone has had ample time to voice their opinions on this subject.

It's serving at least one, and that is as a sad reminder to me of why I don't even look at this site much any more. I've loved spending time here over the past few years, I'm very grateful to Wayne for keeping it going for so long, and I'm glad that somebody has agreed to continue his great work. But judging by some of the responses here, I don't think I'll be bothering to come around much any more.

:cry:
