I think I can understand why the new owner(s) would want to keep their identity a secret. Having read through this thread, if I had bought Amiga.org, I wouldn't want to say anything. Regardless of who it is, it seems there are a bunch of people who have already decided that this person is the devil, hell-bent on ruining all of lives. Even if the owner(s) posted a simple "hello" anonymously as "TheNewOwner", they would be flooded with replies accusing them all sorts of atrocities. Personally, I'd rather stay completely silent for a year or so trying to win the users' trust first. I'd let people get used to me, show them that their fears were unwarrented, and try to make things better. Then, if people were generally happy, I'd pop in and say, "Hi! BTW, I'm the new owner. I'm glad you're mostly happy with the way things are running around here." However, truthfully, if that really annoying vocal minority were still being just as "vocal", I'd probably never tell people who I was. I would live knowing that I'd never be able to satisfy those idiots and just be content with the knowledge that most people are happy without having to put myself through the needless headache of the constant harassment.
Seriously, I think the most amazing thing about the Amiga is that there are still developers, retailers, and web admins willing to put up with this constant bickering and harassment. Give it a rest people!
