Theres plenty to contribute, you just think it all has to be delivered in a 5-page essay format complete with douche-tastic sounding phrases that you probably don't use in real life but do here because you have plenty of time to formulate everything.
Mainly force of habit. Amiga forums are generally full of people from varying nationalities, which makes the use of slang phrases etc a barrier to communication.
Just for you, I've tried to extend this post to 5 pages
If you talk like that in real life, do you also prance around in robes and wave a scepter around and demand your subjects bring you crisps and whatnot?

You're too busy polishing your scepter and demanding tea from your servants to lrn2forum.

If you don't believe me, have your subjects draw up the private jet and come here in a month.
Never been to Hull, have you mate?
Not everyones going to deliver statements and opinions in a high and mighty Tolstoy approach. You tout intelligence. Use it to comprehend this simple fact.
But... you weren't delivering statements, or even opinions, just bile & insults. It doesn't take a rocket scientist to proof-read prior to posting.
Everyone buys computer hardware. You do, I do, the rest of the forum does. Acting like you're above it all because you don't buy the latest stuff is pretty stupid of you.
Yes, but there's a difference between buying a new computer/component because it's needed (or wanted), and rushing out every couple of months to buy Teh l33test sh1t!1!!1
The consumerism comment was just meant as a half-joke/half-truth. Try to pick either half.
Aww whats the matter wittle baby? Now YOU ran out of things to contribute so you have to resort to spewing ignorance?
Guilty as charged, I am ignorant of your personal circumstances and should not have commented in such a way: I unreservedly apologise.
Personally, I am not interested in gaming (at least, not in the currently available arenas which I have seen), but do not seek to disparage those who are. Nor, if I were, would I do it by putting on a baby voice (in written form). Jeez.
All of my friends preordered the game too. If you read the rest of this thread, you'd see that I stated I am a gamer. A pretty serious one, as is the rest of the group I game with. Sounds like you are projecting, and butt-hurt that you have noone to game with so you fap to your Amiga since noone wants to interact with wannabes like you on games.
Err... no.
Haven't powered up my A4KT in around 12 months, pretty much since MorphOS was released on the Mac-mini. Before that it has lived in a box in my wardrobe for a couple of house-moves.
It's been many years since I saw a PC-game which has held my interest for more than an hour or two.
One of the reasons I've decided to sell my PS3 (amongst many) is that the gaming interface is shite (at least, for FPS's). Going back to a joystick control system (moving a cursor around the screen) after the responsive point'n'shoot of the Wiimote is just plain wrong for me.
Plus the annoyance.. it's like being on call all the time.
Plus its inability to deal with external USB drives properly, inability to multitask (at all), shit indexing system, inability to handle many media formats, poor networking capabilities, etc, etc, etc.
Basically, the PS3 ended up being pretty much only a media centre. A task to which it is entirely inadequate.
I decided that my MorphOS system will perform better as a media centre once AMC is released than my PS3 (for my purposes - I have no blu-ray/HD collection), and I won't miss the PS3 as a gaming platform.
That stupid little statement from you really reduced all of your pompous nonsense to nothing. YOU DONE GOOFED SON.
You say this yet continue to post in the thread. Don't talk the talk if you can't walk the walk. Shut up and go diddle around in a new thread, or stay and cope with the madness.
Please enjoy your holiday from Amiga.org...
