The thread was actually called: " Is anybody thinking about joining the Rebellion?". Slightly darker undercurrent in that title, don't you think?
I've read that thread... so what!? I've read a balanced thread, with good arguments, no bash fighting… about the topic, it was made from a user, surely made to catch some more viewers, so both MOS users and AmigaOS users could vocalize …
I've seen pretty many worst threads on ann by MorphOS users...
"nope... don't support piracy by getting a pegasos/MorphOS."
Amazingly, the admins/moderators made absolutely no comment to this post.
Why should they!? Maybe you should think they should have deleted it!? They don't have to pop him every time, and everyone has his right to say if he agrees or not and why! This kind of paternalism was usual on ann but thanks god it isn’t on AW… (and no deleted comments)
However, when a user - Seehund - rightly protested that this was going too far, his post got removed. When he demanded an explanation, he was banned.
I don’t know why he has the right to bragg against the moderators, but I bet it isn’t by saying “
Webmeisters, how about introducing a "no trolling" policy in addition to the "no flaming" one? :-P” that you can state he has “
rightly protested”
Big banner. Top left hand corner. You can't miss it.
Please!! Don't start to get too much paranoiac about your mental link between AW and Ainc, 1st that's not a banner, 2nd what's wrong about using Amiga Logo!? It's a bad thing these days!?
The webmaster appointed Bouma as admin, complete with Bouma's personal agenda and Bouma's - erm - reputation. 'nuff said.
I've read his article about Pegasos and I find it not much biased, as most of his posts, he only says: "I've seen it but still rather prefer AmigaONE" that is what annoys most MorphOS fans/users/whatever, these users think that he can't think no different, Pegasos the ultimate grail and so...
