Title: Aaaarghhh! Am I a Pirate?
Post by: guest3217 on January 05, 2007, 11:57:55 PM

Aaargh matee!

So in my ongoing web surfing, I came up with a link to (Bleep bleep / edited by Wizardo) and found, what looks like, a treasure bounty of old time favorites....

(I couldn't resist PhotonPaint... :lol: ....my first graphics program on my old A500....)

I have often read posts on Amiga.org chastising the terrible notion of piracy...and its ultimate impact on the demise of Amiga, Inc....so on and so forth....
So, is this a site "Non-Grata"? Is it one of those dens of iniquity every good Amiga boy and girl should stay clear of? :roll:
Ciao,
Wiz

P.S.  Still can't find a downloadable version of Vista Pro 3.0 to replace what seems to be my corrupt adf....

@Wizardo

This subject was a cut and dried no-no, until recently when Wayne loosened things up a bit. Now it is more of a grey area. Discussion can be permitted to a point, just don't link directly to warez.

Amiga.org has a fine line to walk or will be shut down.

Understood...I had a feeling it might be touchy.
Thanks for the heads-up Redrumloa....:rtfm:

Yes, not talking about things freely really helped my life... Cant say as hiding anything that might be considered 'bad' has ever been a problem... warez dont kill, people do.
