news moderation

Hello,

I submitted 3 days ago a news item which was also approved:

Hello tokai,

Your submitted story "CPU Monitor 1.3 (MorphOS)" has been approved at Amiga.org.

You can view this link here:
http://www.amiga.org/modules/news/article.php?storyid=4123

...

when I checked one day later it was removed without notice. I send a pm to wayne for some clarification. I didn't got a reply until now.

I submitted the news again. It wasn't approved until now, but some other news was approved in the meanwhile so I can expect that my news will not show up.



Is there something wrong with my news? Or are MorphOS releated news are generally not allowed anymore on Amiga.org? No problem, then I will ignore a.org and post my news only on other sites, but it would be nice to let the user know at least.

regards,
tokai

@mikeymike:

thx. for looking into it.



and I didn't said it's anti-morphos, but it could be that where are reasons for not 'advertising' MorphOS. These days you nerver know what's happening behind the scenes. :-)

@coder:

So it did get published and then it was removed?

yes. :-(

I sure like to see the outcome of this. I am sure it is a simple thing. Right?

I hope.

before someone understands this wrong (on IRC someone already did): I meant there could be (legal) reasons why MorphOS news can't be allowed anymore on a.org (I'm refering to the problems ann.lu had with links to morphzone.org and morphos-news.de). It wasn't meant aggressive towards amiga.org. Sorry if someone has interpreted it that way.

@wayne:

Your statement makes me very sad.

This actually makes me a lot more sad than your amiga.org retirement statement end of last year. When I read your info that amiga.org will go offline on 1st January I was really shoked, because that had meant that probably a lot persons would finally leaved the amiga market (considering that amiga.org is one of the pillars which still helps to let the amiga market breath). That statement has ruined New Year for a lot persons including me. And we all who knew about it were very happy and thankful when we realized a week after NewYear that amiga.org still was alive and you changed your decision. Amiga is for us all (no matter of red, blue, black or whatever camp we're part of) a bit more than just a hobby.

And now you just tell me that you really and truly do not care?  

Wayne, that really hurts!


Besides that it hurts, you don't really want to tell me that when someone else might use a hacked account, mabye one of your news moderators uses his administration powers for a own agenda or something is wrong with the system... that is no reason for care?

Wayne, with all respect I can't believe that.
