Next to my PC I use my 4000 to post here and it works like a charm. I'm on broadband though and I would never want to go back to dial up. The excuse that you find broadband too difficult or expensive for your Amiga is for me quite frankly nonsense. You can buy ethernet cards for your machine new or used and configuring TCP/IP was easy enough.

Being thrown out of a website is annoying but you keep on complaining about all the bloat. Personally I don't find A.org bloated at all but you can turn image loading off in Amiga browsers but you don't react to that hint here at all.

Maybe you could add a text only forum part to your website if you think you have found a niche hole in the market? If there's really a demand you should have a solid user base in due time. Personally I think there's no demand.

Oh and please stop saying sorry for having an opinion; it's annoying and patronizing.

People have given you some valid tips here and you don't even have the curtousy to answer them properly; for example the image loading which will greatly reduce stress on your modem. Do you even want any help or are you just here whine about you so called arguments?

What I meant about the "sorry" part is that when you use it in your posts, they don't mean actual sympathy but are used to condescend people. It's you who's been feeling superiour with your "sorry" you don't get my point attitude. And your last reaction here is totally childish and in my book out of line.

I applaud you for repairing Amigas and your effort for the Amiga but I hope that you don't have this attitude towards the people you do the repair work for.

So indeed can a moderator please close this topic as I won't be bullied into a childish fight?
