Nah, am not going there. I know my luck in these sorts of games and it simply isn't pretty.

 
Sorry to go OT and  maybe ask a really dumb question, but where, what and why are all these new avatars everyone has got all about

Erm...one would hardly call JJ a noob :crazy:
 
Edit...Come to think of it, I'm pretty sure JJ has had the same avatar since I joined at least :lol:

 
No defo not a noob :)
 
been around longer than my singup date, but we all know about thhe big hacks and the picture of the big gapping bottom :)
 
I not had this current avatar that long, year or two maybe, though Id be dammed if I could remember what  my previous one have been.
 
Think my animal is my fav though.
 
And for the record didnt think it was some big attack against me.   Just wondered if they were off a game or something , like a workmen mod to team fortress 2 or something :)

I've heard about the big hack, but not the big gaping bottom. Sounds bloody ghastly 0_o
 
 
Didn't you used to have an avatar of a bald black guy?

From memory the sedond time the site was hacked, somebody replaced the front page with the picture of a massive gapping anus and said something about it being what wayne loved

Kill them!

 
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.

 
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.
 
 
Why chessoid exist ?
 
Hate self.........Petril status 4 :)

Even though my posting count is pretty low (Think I might actually have a life :) )  I can not imagine life without this site.  Despite its recent increase in hostility.  The old guard seem to be keeping an even keel though.

That's the weird thing about perspective. You see an increase in hostility. I -- as an outsider now -- see Amiga.org as regaining a LOT of it's lost glory and sense of humor lately. Odd.

I think that people are given a lot more breathing space these days, maybe its because your are not so invested in it anymore Wayne you can relax and enjoy it more ?

After a break from a.org, I agree with Wayne. The atmosphere here is much nicer these days.

 
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 ?
