That site is geared towards OS4. Why he doesn't rename it something more appropriate remains a mystery. Also not sure why Lemon Amiga is listed there.

He called it "amigaos.net" just to annoy you :lol:

I venture to guess the reason it was left out of the site is because, in general, any talk of AmigaOS4.x around these parts stirs up alot of flame wars and that's*not exactly inviting to old amigans coming back to the scene because of the new hardware announcements (X1000 & Sam4440/460). Minimig, (hopefully soon Natami) are great new products and should be represented as well IMHO
-
@ klx300r. That is not right. The Amiga community being small should be sticking together like this :knuddel:
Not like :griping: or :argue: .
Also i notice they advertise a lot on here making announcements regularly. If they do ignore Amiga.org on purpose then i am willing to call that a bit arrogant :madashell:
Out of curiosity how many users are actively involved with Amigaworld compared to Amiga.org? Which site is bigger?

ahh I agree whole heartedly but alas it's just to plain obvious to ignore that this unfortunately is not the case here at amiga.org lately:(

I, for one, would like to appologize if that's the impression you've received.
We all do offer/argue our own personal opinions (dare I say, prejudices), but I do believe there's more tolerence for alternative systems here than on other sites.
I use MorphOS, and while tired of AOS users' insistance that the use of the trademark "AmigaOS" offers them some level of superiority, I still welcome them to the mix and hope for the long term sucess of their market.
I can understand those that insist on continuing to use legacy systems (as they were some of the most invovative computers ever made), and I wholly hope the Minimig, Replay and Natami all carry register level compatibility into a new level of performance.
X86? AROS, a system I was unsure would survive is finally reaching full utility.
Where else on the web do you find posts covering all these systems?
OK, so times it looks like this :madashell: other times like this :griping: or this :hammer:, but underneath it all there IS some of this :knuddel:.
-
I did a complete binedit of a Windows 7 installation, replacing all occurances of "Windows" with "AmigaOS", so now I have AmigaOS 7 running on this PC of mine here.
Screw you all! :D
-
Amiga.org... it's only amiga forum I read (and occasionally post in) :D
-
Who cares this site is designed so shitty I wouldn't bother to check back,regardless of content. It looks bad in IE, opera, and firefox.
Enough said.

Maybe because this site is geared towards Amiga, and not amigaone or amigaos? Some people are very picky when it comes to trademarks, and believe segregation is a good thing.

C=USA's Amiga trademark must really annoy them.

Monty Python is a bit like National service was, you don't get a choice in the matter, it's start the very day your born when the Dr slaps your bum just before the most expensive machine in the hospital goes... PING... :)
(I agree with tone007, that should be your new sig... :lol:)

IMO amiga.org is the grandfather of all Amiga sites but 'some people' seem to attack anything AmigaOS4.x here and I just can't understand it:confused:...anyhow this site has helped me out tremendously over the years with my classics and I enjoy it but I can't help but notice that there are news items every day for AmigaOS4.x that are posted on other sites but many posters don't bother posting here for fear of yet another flame war etc.
anyhow enough has been said about that it too many threads lately...Amiga is anything that gives the user the Amiga 'feeling' ..so if the spirit of Amiga lives on & the user is having fun then it's Amiga in my books:afro:

I made that mistake by signing my brain over to medical science, now every time I go in for a scan I think they're trying to bump me off, things like pianos mysteriously falling from the sky, giving me the wrong meds, or forgetting I'm still in the scanner and leaving the cleaners to find me... :(
Hmmm... odd that... :)

Guys if you must really know why A.org isn't featured I have the answer for you and its none of the above.
I have already explained this elsewhere anyhoo, if you want A.org featured then I need a screenshot of A.org open in Timberwolf, default colour scheme, title bar active/blue until someone is kind enough to supply me with an image/a link I will not be able to include the site. It has nothing to do with politics, bureaucracy and all that rubbish some of you guys seem to revel in.
So feel free to post an image/link of http://www.amiga.org/forums/ as per above.

I think this thread title should be changed. It's not really in the Amiga.org spirit to attack other sites like that.
You'll have to excuse some of the newer (and younger) members here who feel the need to start these threads.
I for one don't care about anything going on in the Amiga scene anymore. I just come here to chill out with old friends.

But MorphZone.org links to amiga.org! :)
(And it isn't a registered trade mark AFAIK)

Hell yeah, don't say you missed the havoc it caused? ;)

I know the FOX News Channel is not meant to be taken seriously but I didn't realize they were stealing old Pythons sketches nowadays... :lol:

Wrong. Rules of wisdom #32. Never interupt a witchhunt that's already in progress :rtfm:

Someone modified my thread :(

Now i will begin to rebuild what little i have left of my existance and will one day rise from the shadowy depths of victimisation
That is all :cool:
