A cautionary warning note for anti Amiga, AROS & MorphOS trolls

[SysAdmin]

We at Amiga.org like to keep a positive attitude and a glass half full approach. While we don’t think the Amiga well displace all the Windows machines in the world tomorrow we do feel there is room in the computer industry for Amiga OS, AROS & MorphOS. 10,000-100,000 active users is a nice goal to shoot for, even one million active if we get really lucky. Even if it’s a secondary machine or hobby, fans of these alternative operating systems should not be persecuted for their choice of computer fun.

Constructive criticism is of course welcome and helps developers improve their products. But if you come to Amiga.org solely to spew hate and negativity towards MorphOS, X-1000, AROS, Amiga, Etc this will no longer be tolerated.

Negative comments will be taken in context of the rests of your posts. Idea exchanges and great debates are welcome but Amiga.org will not be a platform for any Amiga hate spreading or fud. If this is your repeated goal you might just find your account no longer working here. If another platform not Amiga, MorphOS or AROS related is your passion then perhaps a forum for that system is a better fit for you? We like to keep the site family friendly and fun. Amiga fans new and old are welcome here and positive communication is recommended. If you only have something bad to say maybe you should keep it to yourself? Jokes are still welcome of course as is healthy debate and intellectual exchanges. This is just a general message and is not aimed at any one member.

Enjoy Amiga.org and keep it happy.

You forgot the FPGA based Amiga camp.
 
Hold on... "Windows 7 rules! I can play Crysis and BFBC and NFS and GTA on my 8 core Xeon. I probably have a job in Microsoft as a mail clerk or janitor. Amiga is a joke with only 5 users. Macs are overpriced and turn you into a zombie when you use it!"
 
 
So I assume this is mostly aimed at the MorphOS and AROS bashing? What about fair criticism of the X1000s ridiculous price?

Off with your head!
 

 

Just kidding, as already stated, fair criticism is allowed and can be a learning experience for developers. Amiga.org is very tolerate and this warning is to prevent someone from getting way out of line and upsetting many members. Posts are also taken in context to what the poster has contributed to Amiga.org in the past. Everyone has a bad day now and then.

For my own account, turn amiga.org into amigaworld.net and I'm outta here.
 
In my view, amiga.org is one of the _very few_ international amiga sites where one is actually allowed to express ones views without constantly having the troll-screaming crybabies and insane moderation ruining everything - remove that I don't see the point in this site.

No worries, that is not going to happen.

Common sense is your friend.

If it's chilling perhaps I should have waited to post this on October 31st.

Piru is right.  Censorship defeats the purpose of even having a forum. How can anyone here now expect to speak freely or have a different point of view if you're standing there threatening to ban them if you don't agree with what they have to say?  The posting guidelines are pretty clear so I'm a bit disturbed by your post as well.  At best, it seems threatening.  Not the kind of place where I want to share ideas or debate.

Your reading too much into it. Trolling is different then expressing your ideas. It's only intent is to damage and hurt others.
