My Amiga's been out of action for a few days, so I missed whatever was Doomy's final straw. However, under his BoingBoss alter ego, I had the impression he was trying to be a good boy. Obviously, I was wrong, but as BoingBoss he certainly appeared knowledgeable and helpful in the posts I read. I guess he's something of a schizophrenic... BoingBoss good boy, DoomMaster bad boy.

As one of a dozen AOrg members scammed out of 2,000 Euros and more by Binder, I sympathise with Doomy's victims and applaud the action now taken against him.

As for Gadd...anyone turned on by Mr Sheen needs help.

Well, he operates on a somewhat different (he'd probably say higher) plane than the rest of us. He knows his stuff Amiga-wise and when he was a good boy (alter ego 'BoingBoss' usually) he was very informative on Amiga historic stuff.

He always, but always, defines Amigas as 'computers' as if nobody around here knows what an A4000, A2000, A1200 or an A500 is. I believe he owns several classic 'Amiga computers', particularly those fitted with 'military grade' chips. If anyone ever mentions military grade chips on the net, Doomy will be involved.  

He apparently dabbles a good deal on eBay, seemingly selling stuff, pirating and ripping people off in equal measure.

Once you've read a few of his posts, his style is very recognisable and he's got a brilliant way of getting up your nose without trying. Many people (me included) enjoyed reading his posts and if he could have managed to stay within the rules, he'd probably have become an even bigger AOrg legend than he is.

As it is, he seems to have a nasty streak which completely negates all the foregoing. If you can find any of his old posts, they'll show what I mean. However, if there's no record left to read, you'll have to wait till he pops up again. And believe me, he will pop up again.

Cheers,
