Title: What happened to Czech amiga news?
Post by: Dragster on September 01, 2003, 05:35:08 PM
Hi... just wondering, it was a pretty good source for information and it's not been updated since May!

I don't remember reading it was going to close or such.

regards

Dragster

Here too but last news story is 12th May - either nothing interesting has happened in the three and a half months since (possible...) or the site is dead?

If I were to guess, the site's maintainers either had something happen in their personal life which kept them busy, or they have found something better to do.

maybe the admin died??  :-(  Nah i doubt so though...

But you never know though

Sure is kinda odd, you usually see some info being posted if the site is shut down.

For a first-person point of view thing, running an Amiga-related Web site is the single most frustrating thing that I have ever done.  Those who like your work never say so, those who don't like your work harrass you to no end.  

I have no problems believing that the administrator of that site just got fed up and went on walkabout until the situation improved.  Hell, running Amiga.org I got fed up about once every two months and even the current admins are having to learn to deal with trying to support a community that is genuinely ungrateful and intensely critical of everything.

wayne:well as you know by now , we wont spam you with "WE LOVE THIS SITE" everyday or really...never , as you allready stated it so many times that you got to much mails/pm's :)



hmm maybe i should pm kees and let him know ?

maybe i should be quiet ?

maybe i should bug him about fixing the site instead ?

just an example :)  

anyway make a entry on the site , so people who like it can click every now and then , and one for people who dont... would be a nice feature :)

HIT the box if you like , hit box number 2 if you dont ...  would save alot of unessesary emails/pm's :)



anyway about czech , well i knew this about 3 months ago , we have discussed it in other threads and was given the same answer, oh well more time for aorg.org then :)
