It's probably nothing but we have been made aware of a recent threat against all Amiga sites including Amiga.org
http://moobunny.dreamhosters.com/cgi/mbthread.pl/amiga/expand/182043
We will keep Amiga.org safe and look out for any type of attack. Not sure why someone would bother computer hobby sites but whatever.

I think you can sleep good tonight =), he seems like he isnt the sharpest tool in the sheed and i doubt he has the skills to do any such thing :).

Is this some new definition of the word "threat" that I wasn't previously aware of ? (Sorry Douglas Adams!)
Threat i.e Threat an Act of....in that case, I eat chocolate. Problem solved. Happiness is restored ! A threat while eating chocolate isn't a threat at all, unless its a threat to denial of chocolate service. And that would be an act of war !.

Of course it could be one of a number of odd jobs that hang out there, but BoingBoss rings a bell as one of Doomy's sock puppets.

It's only common sense to be cautious. There are some very nasty scripts out there that *if* you can get them onto the server you can do some harm.

Seems this person has been a thorn in MooBunny's side for weeks or months? Hopefully they don't try to create accounts here. We have antispam measures in place.

Come on, Franko, get yer wet fish ready.. Loonies vs. 'normals'....it's fightin' time! ;)

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... :)
-

You were a fan of the retrogeekcomputers website right?

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.

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.
-

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

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!

We will know if it's Doomy for sure when the only bad thing that happens is someone gets a rusted and dirty 501 card in the mail for their Military Spec A500.

Doomy 8/1
It's someone pretending to be Doomy. Got to have some serious personality problems to do that.
He does a fair job imitating Doomy's voice, but Doomy never used abbreviations like 'u' and 'r' and 'AM'. His grammar was always good.

He learned txting and got lazy? It's a senior Doomy from a nursing home in the future still haunting Amiga sites? Future Doomy infriging on present time. That could explain his claim to have the power to take out all Amiga sites.

Nah, it's Thierry.
On moobunny he'd go through phases of this kind of rubbish, after several months he'd "pop" and disappear for a while, presumably to sort himself out and then return much calmer. It was speculated on more than one occasion that this was due to someone in real life performing some form of intervention.
Apparently whatever safety net that caused him to stop before is now gone. Shame really.

You guys should all realize that every time you guys go on a Doomy rampage, you push the idea that he did nothing wrong. How long has it been since this guy was on A.org? Yet, there are regular threads about how unstable the guy was. I think the members of Amiga.org, should start taking a closer look at themselves.
I mean really, it was even suggested in this thread that his address should be posted, and someone should go to his home and beat him. Again, since I have been here, it hasn't been Doomy that has been acting unstable.
-

What nonsense is this? To point out that the guy ripped off members of the community via ebay is to imply that he didn't?
Presumably by your reckoning then, for instance... By discussing paedo priests people are in fact pushing the idea that they didn't actually do anything wrong...
Tell me, what colour is the sky on the planet that you spend most of your time?

There sure are. I have to resort to things like
"suhosin.executor.func.blacklist = passthru, show_source, shell_exec, system, pcntl_exec, popen, pclose, proc_open, proc_nice, proc_terminate, proc_get_status, proc_close, leak, apache_child_terminate, posix_kill, posix_mkfifo, posix_setpgid, posix_setsid, posix_setuid, escapeshellcmd, escapeshellarg"
for some users due to their inability to write safe code :/ and things like chroot/per user php processes etc.

Well, since MooBunny is completely free and open (not even requiring accounts and log-in procedure) the most difficult part of beeing a thorn in MooBunny's side is to find the spare time and energy to do it, and then of course upholding that energy despite the fact that nobody really cares...

It's for the veteran users here on Amiga.org. Sometimes they get really nostalgic.
They feel they are being pushed aside in favour of the young like you and me so they started a secret club to make them feel special. I think they are just letting the newbies know who's in charge around here.
Damn i wish i had one of thoses avatars :(

the_leander has hit the nail on the head here. If someone is crazy enough to take something I said seriously then that's conclusive proof that person is definitely a fully certifiable bamstick... :)
So therefore Belial6 is actually the guilty party (methinks he doth protest too much) and we should all light our torches and march on his homepage and tickle the bugger to death... :)

Good day,
Hans.
-
Quite, he's been a signed up member for longer than either of us ;)
Why does there has to be some hidden, uncharitable reason for any bit of light-hearted tomfoolery these days?
What part of it being the "silly" season is not being understood?
I live for silly! lets get very very silly! :mickeymouse:
Are we still here? Or has amiga.org been destroyed and we're now all in AO heaven?

moto
yes
Maybe he is MIA because the Crotchless Panties cut off the blood supply to his brain?
best explanation to date!
:banana:
-
If he has been here all this time, it makes the torch and pitchfork wielding appear all that much more unstable. It wasn't Franko who suggested posting a home address. It was Darren. As much as Darren may have been joking, there has been at least once recently during a hate session that a photo of the persons home was posted. And, as much as some here are joking, and my be just fine with Doomy, it is clear that not everyone here is joking. There are clearly people here that, right or wrong really hate this guy. It really turns the site into an ugly place.
Again, it is one thing to give someone a friendly ribbing and suggest that they get tickled to death. It is quite another to suggest posting his address so that someone can assault him in a forum with people who really do hate him.
-
Everybody knows i'm actually Hans
No, I'm Hans. You must be Evil Hans.

First you acknowledge..
Darren may have been joking,
You then go on to say..
It is quite another to suggest posting his address so that someone can assault him in a forum with people who really do hate him.
How very lucky he is to have you to protect him from the ugly horde of mentalists that live on this site! Why, without your calming influence we would all have gone out and blootered him!!!
:rolleyes:
Seriously, his address has been fairly widely known since he pulled the scams he did. Do you not think that if something were going to be done to him, it would have happened already?
Your "concern" is noted however.

@Belial6
The problem is Doomy sold a lot of Amiga cards over the years that were rusted and dirty. It has been proven that rust and dirt shortens human lifespan.

But in defence of Doomy he did offer to autograph an A2000 he refurbished :)
-
I was joking about the rusted and dirty Amiga cards but Doomy might be getting far too much publicity in this thread. We are not 100% sure Doomy is the MooBunny stalker or if he is still a member here. We suspect who he might be but we are not certain.
-
Whinge whinge whinge... :rant: :rant: :rant:
We don't need proof this is a witchhunt!

My theory is that it might be Steve Jobs. The guy has always had it in for Amigans since he snubbed us before Commodore and Atari came along. Personally i think he's scared of us. The guy is evil. :madashell:
Evil i tell you EVIL :madashell:

You more or less have to have a written contract and two witnesses to avoid rape charges in Sweden today. One guy was actually charged for sexual abuse and assault against a woman who apparently liked it rough. Her mother didn't approve of her daughter's BDSM habits and reported the guy to the police. -.-
Anyway, that's a matter for another thread. :D

Aah, moobunny, the 4chan of the Amiga world. Script kiddies and trolls, I wouldn't worry too much about them.

Did I mention Sweden has harsher punishments for copyright infringement than for selling drugs outside schools?
There's a reason I left the country. ^^

No I've finished my degree now. I've been busy with my new job, and also needed a bit of a break from the negativity that was building here at the time. Now I've got the arduous task of trying catch up to Karlos' post count, but it seems a bit futile ;)

I wouldnt bother, Franko who only been around 5 mins will prob overtake you all by middle of next year :)

Love those sketches. Also like the orgina of cavemen ones. Rest of it getting a bit weak these days.
Same for my idols mitchell & webb, last series very lame.
Though their radio stuff and peep show still amazing

Agreed - None of them have really changed their formula for a long time. TBH even Peep Show isn't what it used to be.

Another nutter that belongs in a video nasty.
Perhaps a room with soft walls and a good dose of medication would be nice.
He has my pitty...................... and I further notice its this time of year that he has no happiness in his sad little pathetic life, so making sure he makes every one else unhappy.
A well padded room with no sharp objects to harm himself has been sorted out..... ohhhhh the poor old chap.
Long live Amiga, happy Christmas every one including the unbalanced person who is a little of the rails right now, hang in there help is on its way.................

I know what you mean about peep show, first 5 series were where it was at. Though I think the current series has re-captured what it was all about, mush better than previous series, which i cant really remeber what happened now.
Fav Mitchell and Webb sketch is chesseoid.

Methinks he's been at it already, me little medals been nicked and yet I have a higher daily post count on here than anyone else, c'mon Karlos hand back me medal and I'll let you keep your high score for a while longer... ;)
Anyway stop talking about me, I'm just an innocent bystander in all of this, back to the subject, are we all still here, has anything happened or is this some alternate reality that I'm posting in right now... :)
For all I know I could have been abducted by aliens again and am really living in some sort of cyberspace induced dream and I'm not even awake and typing this... :)

Sorry for being off topic to your off topicness (sure, its not a real word, but Im going to use it anyway), but the crazy that is demonstrated by whoever has been spamming Moobunny and/or made threats in regards to other amiga sites is much more entertaining than the usual type of crazy displayed on amiga forum sites.
I for one would like to thank this as-yet-still-thinks-he's-anonymous person for helping bring the amiga community as a whole together once more. With the current amiga landscape having many factions it's nice to be able to unite, read a little of the insanity and collectively point and laugh. Certifiable, sure, literate, not one of him. Armigeddion? I mean heck, there was even a movie, isnt that how most bozo illiterate monkeys learn these days ?
One thing Im curious about though, are people absolutely certain foody is athiest2 ? (or more specifically are athiest and athiest2 different people?).
I actually used to speak to foody a little on irc, and while we didnt always see eye to eye I did chat to him more than I did Athiest (whom Ive also chatted with a little here and there) and find it quite surprising to hear people saying him and athiest2 are the same person. Foody is(was?) a Classic Amiga person while athiest was an os4.x guy if Im not mistaken ?
Oh yeah, and one more thing,..... "I will reveal my identity tonight in the A.M.",.......
not only is he well behind schedule, but "tonight in the A.M." ? Maybe Im being a little pedantic, but Im pretty sure we're not dealing with an intellectual giant here.
Reminds me of that old poem that starts, "I went to the pictures tomorrow and took a front seat in the back".

If Doomy is on right now, why don't you just out him? And even if you don't, why don't you apply the TOS to the attacks that are continually heaped on the guy? As far as I can tell, he is an Amiga.Org made villain. How bad could he have behaved that would be worse than calling for a real life in the flesh beating?
I'm going to give you the benefit of doubt, seeing a join date of 2002, but in case you don't remember your history, Doomy, let's call him "Mr. Campbell" actually threatened at one time to "come down to my neck of the woods and sort {me} out" (paraphrased, since the original resides with an attorney friend of mine) since he "had family down here".
Historically speaking "Mr. Campbell" had repeatedly abused this forum system (by way of multiple accounts), and it's members (by way of ripping them off on eBay), and it's staff (by way of threat over being banned) to the point where it was unilaterally decided by myself and the admins at the time that his presence was no longer tolerated.
Since then, I'm certain that George, aka "Mr. Campbell", aka Doomy, circa potentially you, has continually kept several accounts in violation of the posted rules of the site. Traditionally, we have tolerated "him" until such time that his antics have invariably surfaced enough to ban whatever account he is using at the time. He ALWAYS slips up and reveals himself.
Generally speaking, "We" can't stop people from reading the forums. That's what AO is here for, but we can work towards making it a better place for the community here by way of managing any given nutbaggery on a given day.
When I say "we", of course I mean the site owners, Bill P, and the site's current list of site admins. I gave all this up for lent, and while I have nothing seriously against "Mr. Campbell", I do think anyone this deeply attached to any hobby, while using a forum to rip off its' members may sincerely need a psychiatric evaluation by professionals.

It's not just folk on Amiga forums that threaten Doomy on you tube whatever he has done there there are a number of really nasty videos threatening Doomy and his family with death threats. Now I don't know Doomy only what I've read about him and some things he's posted but it would seem wherever this guy goes he causes trouble for himself and upsets a hell of a lot of people not just those on Amiga sites...
I would post the threat videos here but some of them are really sick & twisted (haven't a clue why YouTube allow some of them they are so bad) so Belial6 if you want to see them for yourself dig around on you tube, all these folk can't be wrong. Me I couldn't care less about him one way or the other, but one things for sure love him or hate him the whole Doomy saga leads to some very interesting and often quite amusing reading... :)

What do i search for on you youtube to see these videos? I had a look but couldn't find any :)

but there are other vids out there direct at Mr Hans C in which 'our' Doomy has responded to...
Has anybody noticed the lack of mods on the site today !!! are they fighting the threat behind the scenes here keeping us all safe and warm, it must be the longest I've seen without Karlos popping in... :)

The question that keeps popping up in my mind is:
Does any of you have actual evidence that proves that this guy "ripped" anyone off, evidence that would hold up in a coart of law? Or did someone that simply does not like the guy start rumors, which then led to a snowball effect.
I have watched this guy's videos on YouTube, especially the ones about his vintage computer history, and I must say, he does not seem like the kind of person that you people say he is. Now, he may have said some stupid things here on Amiga Org, and he may have made some threats, but, has he followed thru with any of those threats, or was he just being foolish at the time?

People bought stuff from him on ebay on the basis that he was a member of this site, they paid and didn't get what they paid for. They then came back to this site and complained.
Rather than idly ask these questions, go take a look for yourself. It's all there in the archives and we have a working search function.

Con artists never seem bad at first. At least, not successful ones.
Now, he may have said some stupid things here on Amiga Org, and he may have made some threats, but, has he followed thru with any of those threats, or was he just being foolish at the time?
He got banned, he tried to come back repeatedly - in further breach of the TOS after having threatened the lives of people on this site. Whether he intended to carry out those threats or not at this stage is irrelevant. He is not welcome on this board.
I would however strongly urge you to go through the archives and find out for yourself just what kind of person he is.

the_leander has just given you some perfectly good answers, I've already posted here that it's not only folk on Amiga sites this Doomy guy has upset and as it appears you have visited HCs youtube channel, then read a bit more carefully and follow the clues...
You'll soon find out why this guy has made himself so unpopular as I said a short time ago not all these folk can be wrong, so stop defending this guy unitl you've read everything and you can then draw your own conclusions... :)
-
I get that he very well likely did many of the things that are claimed of him. The problem is that while it is said he went so far as to threaten you Wayne, I also see in this very thread a physical threat against him. As I understand it, he was banned because the kind of nutbaggary that would make physical threats are not the kind you want here. I would agree with that, but the rules against threats seems to only apply to those that the mob has decided they don't like.
There are definitely nutcases on this board. Heck, one might argue that hanging out on this board pretty much defines you as a nutcase, but the viciousness on this board gets REALLY bad, and a blind eye is turned when for some people, while the TOS bets broken out for others.
The comments made against "Mr. Campbell" go far beyond warning against doing business with the guy. They are incessant, and personal attacks. They set the bar pretty low for what is considered acceptable behavior, and they are frequently exactly what some of the claims against him are.
I realize that many of use were in high school when we were first introduced to the Amiga, but we are not any more. We should act like grown ups. OK, maybe not grown ups. But we should at least be civil.

@ Belial6
Where is this physical threat in this thread you speak of, I've been looking and can't find it ???
To me personally I find this thread quite amusing and don't honestly think anyone is going to hunt down HC and duff him up, as far as I can tell it's just all a bit of fun.
In this so called civilised world there are far more hideous things happening right now as we speak that you should be getting worked up about rather than taking too seriously what is nothing more than a bit of banter... :)

It is, Belia is deliberately ignoring context to prove himself right. He won't let it drop until Darrin gets permanently banned for making a jokey comment. You watch, any time there's a heavy discussion and the TOS gets talked about, he'll bring this up again.

Ahh... So saying quite being a hypocrite and bagging on some guy that isn't even (at least openly) on this board, including threats, is trolling? I get the context. The context is that many people on this board think the guy is a crook, and an ass. The guy is gone from Amiga.org. If he isn't really gone, he is at least in hiding. You already won. The pitchfork and torch waving that is still going on isn't "context". It is seeing a guy that you have already beat down, and then going out of your way to just keep kicking him.
The context I see is a group of bullies who have found a target that they can use to rationalize their petty asshole behavior because after all "he ripped off users".
-

Still ignoring context I see. And an adhom into the bargain, awesome!

The threat was in 8th entry in this thread. It was made by Darrin.
A bit of fun is you threatening me with fuzzy tickle sticks. OK, a bit of fun is using the tickles sticks, but that is another story. I am here. You are poking fun at me, to me. Bagging on a guy that has been banned from the site is not poking a bit of fun. Again, a simple warning that he has ripped some people off from this site is one thing, but that is not what is happening here. When you actually think badly of someone, saying bad things about them is entirely different than saying bad things about your pal that you think is a great guy. One is a bit of fun, the other is an attack.

I am not suggesting that Darrin get banned. I am suggeting that if moderation is going to be done, the endless bitch sessions filled with derogatory comments about a guy that was banned YEARS ago, is a good place to start, rather than the administrators joining in.
And why wouldn't I point to this thread when the TOS gets talked about? The TOS don't come up very often, as banning and moderation is pretty lenient on the site, but when moderation has come up, it has always been for things far less than what has happened in this thread.
Ask yourself, are there half as many posts talking about Cammie's gaming contest as there are posts bagging on Doomy? Which of the two is being productive to the site? Which of the two is actually still a member?
If Doomy is such a threat to the community that he needs this much coverage, then just have a sticky at the top of every forum, warning not to do business with him and move on.
-
OK another time i didn't want to join in but i will... who in their right mind would take what Darrin said about tickle sticks seriously?? are you 5 years old and don't know what humour is?
Honestly if you think of that as a threat i would hate to see what you would do if someone said Boo to you late at night.
But since i think you and selles are both doomy i guess you have to troll for something to keep you alive.. (ahhh i have hit the nail on the head.. doomy needs trolling NOT food to keep him alive.....) :D :D :D
-
Ask yourself, are there half as many posts talking about Cammie's gaming contest as there are posts bagging on Doomy?
And you're helping this how?

According to Transition, both are.
If Doomy is such a threat to the community that he needs this much coverage, then just have a sticky at the top of every forum, warning not to do business with him and move on.
Or, we could just continue to have fun whilst ignoring your really quite groundless complaints.
-
I think what we are dealing with is not so much as a demented person as we think but more of a narcissistic person. A, "Brat Child" if I may.
It is a fact that Doomy has gone through great lengths to say, "Hey! look at me! See what I’m doing?" And we do, we look; we comment; we give the bugger the recognition he wants.
So the problem is that Doomy has it stuck in his head that ANY notoriety is GOOD notoriety. This is why he has such a problem. That is why WE have such a problem.
How do we snuff this circle of "Doom"? Donno. But I think we need to stick to our guns and not lets others rile us up. We have proof and we are friends here. Both back each other up.
So, Belial, why don't you bring up a topic that is important to you and find out how dynamic and helpful we at A.org really are.
I dare ya. ;)

Doomy is our Lindsay Lohan?

OK another time i didn't want to join in but i will... who in their right mind would take what Darrin said about tickle sticks seriously?? are you 5 years old and don't know what humour is?
Honestly if you think of that as a threat i would hate to see what you would do if someone said Boo to you late at night.
But since i think you and selles are both doomy i guess you have to troll for something to keep you alive.. (ahhh i have hit the nail on the head.. doomy needs trolling NOT food to keep him alive.....) :D :D :D
Really? Is that where it goes? It strikes me that Doomy is Amiga.orgs very own Godwin. Instead of brining up Hitler and calling anyone that disagrees with you a Nazi, you call them Doomy. The site administrator can see my IP address. He can see that I log in from Northern California 100% of the time.
You should also read better. Darrin said to post Doomy's address, and that one of us must live withing "arms reach" of him. That is a threat.
It was Franko that made the comment about tickle sticks, and I explicitly said that it was NOT a real threat. Why? Because he made it TO ME. He wasn't involved in some hate session that I could not defend myself in.
But seeing the join date of 2007, I feel it safe to assume that you, like me, have never actually had an interaction with Doomy. Yet you still see him lurking in the shadows. You decide, "I don't like what he is saying. He must be Doomy."

Maybe he already has, and that's why his post count is so high.

Scurrilous! My post count is entirely genuine. Would be about 11K higher if it weren't for the bloody mpacuk forum ;)

There are no accounts, that's the point. You enter a username (can be anything) and an email (doesn't even have to pass a format check) and it displays whatever you post. The only thing it reveals is the IP address (or hostname if known) you posted from, which given almost everybody uses a proxy, means that a lot of nonsense ensues.
You can usually tell the regulars after a few visits though.

I dunno. Some people on there have been banned from pretty much every other forum that requires an account. Others just prefer the constant hostility I guess.
It can be kind of fun, people there when they do start arguing about a topic really don't hold any punches.

@Belial6
The issue is pretty irrelevant at this point. George is banned. He has been banned for years. Whether or not he stays banned is now no longer up to me, but from what I see on the net (Youtube, etc), his tactics and demeanor have not changed.
I don't care that he threatened me. I pretty much think, and thought at the time, that it's all laughable.
For God's sake, I'm old enough to take care of myself, and I have enough firepower within easy reach to take care of pretty much any nutbag who bangs on my door in the middle of the night. This is Alabama after all.
What I don't forgive, or forget, is someone who knowingly abuses a community that I had a large part of, to the extent of ripping off my friends. Yes. Personal friends. People I physically know, as in "stayed in my spare bedroom while looking for a job locally" friends. That's not heresay, or conjecture. That's fact.
You say we're being kinda rough on ol' George. There are times when I might agree with you that it goes too far. That being said, when "Doommaster" put on the proverbial clown suit and painted a proverbial target on his forehead, he's pretty much made the joke out of himself over the years.
Youtube videos with him wistfully pining "Only Amiga" badly off-key have only served to reinforced his reputation as "someone we don't want around".
My advice to you here sir, and I'm being honest, is to re-read this thread with an objective mind. Realize that it's not just me, or the admins, or the new owners, or Bill P that dislike the guy. It's everyone pretty much universally.
As such, there's got to be something to that (we cannot all be wrong). If you insist on continuing to play the role of his knight in shining armor here trying to defend and save him, I'm afraid you might be disappointed, as you're going to find it difficult to find any friends on this site, let alone "convert" anyone to thinking George is a good guy.
Just a thought, and I wish you a Merry Christmas.

It seems to have carmed down again recently. But there was a few months were its seemed nearly every post had someone shouting someone else down or being negative for the sake of it.
I know its always been like that here, maybe just noticed it more recently as been feeling down so maybe negativity was more apparent as had more of an effect. That make sense ?

Absolutely. Negativity feeds negativity :(

Online "Anonymous" forums (like this) are weird.
It's sometimes difficult to maintain order without being called "censor" or "nazi" or even "anti-Christ" (I always LOVED that one). What I learned over the years of running Amiga.org is fairly simple. Even wonderful, saintly people who inhabit online forums tend to adopt a "group-think" or better stated, a "mob". mentality.
Take the recent cries to forgive Doomy for example. One guy brings up a valid point about us going to the other extreme (we do tend to slam on doomy at the slightest mention of his name) and we all jump on board to decry the poster for it.
Let's face it though, the Amiga situation is not without its' drama. Red versus blue, we versus them, me in a steel cage match with Bill Buck.
The list goes on and it's easy for everyone here to take sides, even though we're all really just after the same thing. A usable, new Amiga without the $2000 pricetag or the outdated PPC hardware. I know, I know. We can't even all agree on that, which just further illustrates my point.
I can't think that my leaving has anything to do with the lightening up of everyone around here. At least I hope not. It's been more a case of no one really driving the bus, and the mods just doing their best to be jovial, to encourage people to have fun, and to contain the madness that is the AO community.
Merry Christmas Dammit.

Can't speak for the new owners, but before I left (which is now 1 year, 4 months ago) the stats were definitely up, as is bandwidth, which was interesting considering the fact that the current site is actually "lighter" graphics-wise than the old one.

Better said that I'm "easily amused" these days... :)
In all seriousness, if it were "my problem", I've been wondering why someone (anyone) out there hasn't taken the vB theme framework which is readily available and build a much more modern looking (ie - "non-look-like-every-other vB-install-out-there) theme.
I mean, why not take all the documented calls out there and make the site look much more like CNN, or even a good WordPress install. Some things, like the forum itself would ALWAYS look like a forum, but given the time and effort, it could look SO much better/different.
Looking at this site and knowing what I do about skinning it, I often consider the idea of replacing PHPBB on Whyzzat with vB and doing exactly that. Trouble is, I don't have $300 laying around for a new copy of vBulletin 4.

Just to be clear about it, I am not in any way trying to make fun, jab at, or otherwise disrespect your opinion. I am just in a position now where I find it both intriguing and humorous that it still bothers some folks.
I do have to say -- now that I'm an outsider -- there are in fact some things about vBulletin that I really don't like (as opposed to say, a package like WordPress) but as someone else has rightly pointed out, my opinion is now worth a lot less around here than it used to be, and that's a good thing.

For God's sake, I'm old enough to take care of myself, and I have enough firepower within easy reach to take care of pretty much any nutbag who bangs on my door in the middle of the night. This is Alabama after all.
As you should.

People I physically know, as in "stayed in my spare bedroom while looking for a job locally" friends. That's not heresay, or conjecture. That's fact.
That is a good reason for you to really dislike the guy.

Youtube videos with him wistfully pining "Only Amiga" badly off-key have only served to reinforced his reputation as "someone we don't want around".
I know nothing about the clown suit, but certainly singing badly just isn't that bad of an offense. Sticking to complaints about ripping off users makes a better argument.
My advice to you here sir, and I'm being honest, is to re-read this thread with an objective mind. Realize that it's not just me, or the admins, or the new owners, or Bill P that dislike the guy. It's everyone pretty much universally.
And that is where it goes overboard. If you and the admins and the new owners, and everyone who has had actual contact with the guy dislike him, that is one thing. It is a clear sign that things have turned into a mob witchhunt when it becomes universal, including people that don't even know the guy.
As such, there's got to be something to that (we cannot all be wrong).
Yes, you can. That is kind of why mobs are bad.
If you insist on continuing to play the role of his knight in shining armor here trying to defend and save him, I'm afraid you might be disappointed, as you're going to find it difficult to find any friends on this site, let alone "convert" anyone to thinking George is a good guy.
I think if you read my posts, you will not find any place where I even imply that the he is a good guy. Not even once. I have even specifically pointed out previously that I don't know the guy, and believe those that had bad experiences with him. That is why I said he is our version of Godwins Law. Saying that taking things too far and encouraging a big round of mob hate is a bad thing, gets turning into accusations of being a sypathizer. It isn't about trying to "defend and save" doomy. It is about trying to defend Amiga.org. If you haven't noticed the hate sessions start spilling over to others.
Just look at some of the comments about CUSA. As far as I know, they haven't taken a dime from anyone. His worst offense seems to be using a decade old graphic without permission. The scale of attacks against them are simply unwarranted. So, who is next on that list?
It's sometimes difficult to maintain order without being called "censor" or "nazi" or even "anti-Christ" (I always LOVED that one). What I learned over the years of running Amiga.org is fairly simple. Even wonderful, saintly people who inhabit online forums tend to adopt a "group-think" or better stated, a "mob". mentality.
Take the recent cries to forgive Doomy for example. One guy brings up a valid point about us going to the other extreme (we do tend to slam on doomy at the slightest mention of his name) and we all jump on board to decry the poster for it.
And that is basically my point. Although, you will not find anywhere that I have even suggested he be forgiven. Just that any hint of his name gets out of control, and it has started moving to the point that his name seems to start getting brought up just so that a hate session can start.

If you genuinely think the Doomy stuff that goes on in these threads is serious then you a have worse problem dealing with reality than I do, I don't know Doomy personally only things he's written and done himself on the net and thing others have written about him.
I neither hate nor love the guy, the same goes for you this ain't the real world here it's just a bunch of anonymous folk online having a laugh and a bit of a banter, but you seem to be the leader of the PC brigade (that's Politically Correct and not PC as in crappy computer) with a weird notion that all that is said here is somehow going to have a lynch mob with bloodhounds out in the real world hunting down Doomy.
I mean I hate Maggie Thatcher and still wish to this day someone would shoot the old bag before she dies, so are you gonna jump to her defence now and report me to the police for saying this, c'mon man get a grip before you end up in my old padded cell.
Methinks your taking all this nonsense here way too seriously and take a bit of advice from someone who's been certified before, snap out of it and come back to the real world before it's too late, cos the nuthouse is not all it's cracked up to be... it's full of real loonies you know... and not a pleasant place to be carted of to...
Relax, calm down and think of nice pink fluffy things that float around the sky making weee weee weee noises... :)
(failing all that you could join our witchhunt and dig out your tickling stick...:))
I'm off now to find see if I can find a hitman for old Maggie while I take my no-legged tortoise for a drag...;)

@Franko
Belial6 should read some of the massive spam Doomy has been putting on Moobunny, then we shall see if he still defends him.

Theirry Predevec (aka Atheist, Atheist2), the Canadian serb who is the architect of this ridiculous schizoid embolism, couldn't bring a website down if you gave him a key card for the data center and six sticks of dynamite.
He'd eat the card and set his hair on fire, asking a cop to hold the dynamite while he ran around frantically.
I think ever since Richard of Team NATAMI told him that he wouldn't be allowed to buy a Natami his brain has broken. Of course, poor Theirry just wanted eight phone jacks, 9000 gigabytes of Chip RAM, etc. etc.
His slow* spiral into insane feature requests can be seen over on the Natami forum.
Anyway, dude can't even maintain his broke-assed and likely very compromised 1ghz pentium he plays Everquest with. It's just crazy-person babble.

Except what's the motive? It just feels like Doomy would have more motive to do this then anyone else but who knows.

@adz
Quality vs. quantity, eh? ;)
Ummm...yeah, you could call it that :lol:
-

Thierry Predavec/Athiest/Foody is probably genuinely psychologically troubled.
Doomy probably has a "nonspecific personality disorder" which is a nice way for a shrink to say "He's an asshole."
edit: Also, Thierry has been run off from every Amiga webforum except for Moobunny, and that's only because John Shepard probably finds his flailing around hilarious.
-

Thierry is genuinely suffering from a severe mental illness. He's been spamming moobunny like this for years.

Belial6, henceforth, you shall be referred to as Mrs. Campbell, you are officially Doomies bitch :lol:

After a break from a.org, I agree with Wayne. The atmosphere here is much nicer these days.
It's probably because I'm back after a three year break. ;)

In anticipation of our impending doom, I have temporarily opted out of the bizarre "PROBLEM?" avatars in favour of a more pertinent one.

As long as you don't mind being referred to as Cow Anus Licker, since everything coming out of your is bullshit. So, Anus Licker, we can have a merry Christmas knowing that we have shiny new pet names for each other. :)

Yeah, but you're the only one who's gonna call me that, so I really don't give a shit :lol:

Sorry to play net nazi on this one here, but I just felt like I had to step in and delete 4 posts here which clearly violated the rules about insults and abuse.
Don't take it personal, and I'm SO sorry that it's *me* that stepped in, but I figure that Karlos has to sleep sometime and it couldn't wait. The real mods here are absolutely free to override my deletion. It's entirely up to them.
Please breathe deeply, exhale, and don't get started down the wrong path here. We're having such fun and I hate to spoil it.

Looks like I've still got it :lol:

I do wonder about the sanity of this entire thread. I've read, I wonder if T or D trashed this site, knocked it off the net for months even if they can could couldn't or inspire some-else to, Who in the end, gives a sh*t !
Love the place but nobody died !
I worry more about being made redundant, what am I going to pay the mortgage with, what am I going to have for Christmas dinner, Amiga.org for which I have been a member for a long time if pretty much last on my life threatening, critical, important things to worry about list.
Sorry chaps get a grip.

This topic has gone off to left field, but it's not what I would consider a serious topic. At least not not. Just watch the language.

There are only two things you need to know about Amiga.org
1. The first rule about Amiga.org is you don't talk about Amiga.org
2. There is no other rule
3. See 2.

btw, you (or current owners) probably got some statistics about usage, why not share it with us?
Haha. I put in a feature request about this about a year ago. But it got ignored like every other suggestion I've made over the years.
Also, I pointed out some simple typos and inconsistencies but they got ignored as well.
The new owners couldn't give a shit about the site as long as it just keeps chugging along in the background.
Wayne would've taken pride in his site. DiscreetFX clearly don't.

Well after the big non event I decided to explore that weird moobunny site...
What on earth is that place all about !!!
Apart form the fact me eyes are now sore from all that gawdy green & white text it makes about as much sense as I do... :)
Looks like it's made by someone with a box of crayons or just a single green felt tip pen... need to go and put some eye drops in all three of my eyes now... weird... :)

I can't say that that is, or isn't the case really. I do know that if the new owner(s) actually made any change whatsoever, you guys would truly call for a lynching..

Only little things like this, but they dont get fixed, and it makes you wonder why bother even pointing them out?

the thing that bothers me is this:
http://www.amiga.org/forums/web/statusicon/forum_old.gif
its generic, unimaginative, boring.. so I always use 'home' instead of 'forums' and miss some good threads

Right now, the board is being spammed by Thierry Predavec/foody/athiest2/atheist in an attempt to quash dissenting opinions, that's all.
John will kill all the messages (or not) if he gets bored with Thierry Predavec/foody/atheist/athiest2 's bullshit.

Honestly? If that's your biggest problem in life, we have really got to find you a girl mate... :)
That being said, I've got a solution.
It's not my place to make changes to this site any more, but I've offered two sets of replacement icons to the owners for their consideration.
As for hitting home instead of forums, that's just the way it works. Home isn't the same as "forums" as this isn't just a "forums" site (or at least it tries not to be). Is it the best way to do it? Nope, but that's what you get when you take any forum software and try to make it into a full blown CMS.
Hopefully you'll like the new icons if they get posted, but being Christmas Eve, everyone's on holiday, so it may be Monday or so.
Like I said, I technically *could* change them, but it's not my place, or my site to do so any more, which is fine by me.

I can't speak for John, but honestly that crap's been going on for at least 6-8 months.
I don't see John being interested enough to care any more, the bunny seemingly being relegated to just "being", like most Amiga sites are these days. It's a shame too, because outside of being the refuge for smegheads, there was actually good, intelligent conversation going on over there at one point.

What's CMS stand for ???

@Wayne

Traditionally speaking, when talking about Web sites (there are many meanings for that acronym), it stands for "Content Management System".

Thanks for clearing that up for me... :)

Agree 100% :lol: Also, interesting to hear an American using the word "mate" (as a noun...).
Anyway, good to see you're still around Wayne :)

Oh I know; and I agree. You can go back through the archives for years (back to around 2001) and find some of the better Amiga tech discussions.
I do wish he'd flush Thierry/Athiest2 etc. postings. But, eh, whaddyagonnado?
