My question is why are there so many camps in the Amiga scene (when we're not really that big anyway) and why are we at war with each other?

Though this isn't to debate the issues that get us seemingly worked up, just why those issues exist in the first place.

This is like asking why there isnt peace in the middle east when they all worship the same god anyhow.

People who crave power lives off these wars, it's what gives them power. They can dictate the truth, create a following and eventually clash into open war with other groups. Split and rule.

I dont know much about the red camp, but in the blue camp they seem more keen on ridiculing the red camp than talking about their own problems. For example, in the SAM440 thread, bluecampers join in to ridicule both OS4 and SAM - en masse. What for? To show off their elitism ofcourse. Or do you really they care about what other people use their money on? I doubt it.

They keep pointing to various hardware that would be or is better/cheaper than SAM440 and say aCube should rather build something like that. Well, gee - so should Genesi. Yet we dont see the bluecampers raving around about the lack of products from Genesi/bPlan. Why not?

IMO the blue side should just STFU regarding OS4 and related issues, and rather focus on their own problems. The red camp I dont know so well, as blue camp hangaround I've only gotten to know the redcampers as dumbwits and children...  :roll:

:roflmao: The Ironing in your post is delicious... I hope it was deliberate!

Ironing?
No, I meant every word, irony is wasted on the stupid.

And it just gets better  :roflmao:

Well I'm not too sure about the Middle East Religion analogy, but some of what you said demonstrated a point about how things escalate. Not that big a deal, just thought I'd point it out.

Some of what who said?

I think I've made one comment in this thread, which said:

And it just gets better :roflmao:

Which was a comment on unintended irony. Hardly escalating things, especially as no one ever replied.

So put away the broad brush please.

Sorry, didn't mean to keep things so broad. I just put all your names together because your posts were all part of a certain chain.

No worries. :-)

My mistake. Sorry again. (Lol, maybe this is another form of escalation: misunderstanding)

Tbh I tend to think of all this as pretty unnecessary myself, this whole red/blue whatever camps, at one time for me was important, but no longer, so my comment was simply on someone saying something deeply ironic unintentionally, because it did actually make me laugh out loud.

My view on this is quite simple: Use what you want, do what you want, so long as you're not hurting anyone (including yourself) whilst doing it.  :-)

And maybe, just maybe, have a little fun whilst you're at it  :-)
