@ Boudicca

I know the feeling on my occasional trips south of the border I really should take an interpreter with me or an LED display with subtitles... :)

ere Karlos you seem to have the hang of it, fancy a job as a personal interpreter... :)

Are you guys sure that this "boing boss" is the person you think he is?  Why spread rumors?  Most of you are so negative.  :(

And people are wondering what has happened to the Amiga community lately!

Why do fringe operating systems attract the loonies ?  Anyone have a theory ?


Well being a genuine 100% certified loonie, I have a theory and it goes a bit like this...

Long long ago in the far off distant future lived a young brussel sprout named Fred. Now Fred was a happy little soul who owned the very last Amiga in the entire galaxy.

One day while Fred was floating about in the sky  in his amazing flying brick he suddenly encountered a worm hole that brought him back in time to 1886 when he claimed to all who would listen that the Amiga would one day rule the world.

To cut a long story short 100 years later Fred was right and so all those who said he was a loonie had to eat their words (which were quite tasty actually, a bit like the same taste of the little bit of fluff found in your belly button) and so every loonie jumped on the Amiga bandwagon because if you weren't an Amiga owner you were just plain weird... :)

We'll that's the story I heard from a giant six legged pink mushroom , ok not much of a theory I know but it's true so it is... :)

I really hate people that gossip about other people. To me, they are the lowest scum on the earth. Especially those that spread rumors with no actual evidence to back up those rumors.

I see no gossip.  A threat was made, and people are speculating as to who may have made the threat.

Forgetting to use a proxy, thus exposing your usual IP address kinda gives it away.

Did you guys ever stop to think that someone is posing as this boing boss, to give the guy a bad rep?  So quick you guys are to believe in the negative.  :(

Well, we can fix that. I can make it so you don't have to hear it...

Let's be completely clear about one thing here. Though people sometimes lament his antics, DoomMaster made himself persona non grata on this forum and was banned indefinitely by the former site admin, a ban which extended to any and all sock puppet accounts he created or attempts to create in future.

Until I'm instructed of a change in that policy, I will have no hesitation in enforcing that ban.

Are you Boing Boss?

If you are this has to be the worst defence ever!

My answer to this is simple. If in doubt start a witchhunt!    :rolleyes:

In response to this threat i am calling a war council.

As part of my contribution i present to this council my army of nazi zombies led by General Death.

With Franko's dads army we have already taken the first steps in building a force that can oppose this threat.

Are you serious? It's well established that Foody is Thierry Prevadec, aka Atheist. Not just here on Amiga forums but also elsewhere. Here he claims to be a Muslim:
http://forum.mpacuk.org/showthread.php?t=34374&page=5
(see post #99 and #94)

Here he trolls a Microsoft forum in 2006:
http://www.microsoft-watch.com/content/desktop_mobile/microsoft_to_tighten_the_genuine_advantage_screws.html

And it's been established that the moobunny spammer is posting from the same ISP as Foody aka Atheist aka Thierry Prevadec thanks to a slip-up where he forgot to proxy.

I guess it's possible that two insane spammers with the same posting style hitting the same board in the same time period could be on the same ISP in Canada though, so your doubts are well-founded!
