AmigaWorld.org updated

I don't know why we keep talking about trolls anymore.

The arguments don't ever end, and arguing about arguing is just enough to make someone pull their hair out of their head.

Well, I will throw in my useless comments.  I go to AmigaWorld.Net sometimes, and I slammed them a lot when they opened up.  They split the community, no doubt about it.

However, they have been a reality for a long time, and furthermore, they have proven to have a lot of exclusives, and I have reason to go there sometimes and read a story or two.  Kudos for a useful site.

Now, amiga.org is still great too.

but AmigaWorld.org....GAWWW I hate that site.  I have regretted every trip to that site.  It is clearly a 'personality' site, with the webmaster's personality being the biggest draw to that site, but it doesn't appeal to me...I mean, the constant rambling on about taking another poll or petition and getting blinkity blank...Adobe to port photoshop, or whatever other thing that isn't going to happen.....ugh

ok, I get 2 cents for that review.

Well, it wasn't literally split into Amiga.org and Amigaworld.net...and even if we've always had multiple websites, this one sure felt different...and it was different, in its inception and marketing in those early days.

of course, there were feelings precipitating the formal split into a new website, but even if you don't feel it was the cause, it was also not the solution.

nevertheless, we are quibbling over words, and besides, past is past.  I tend to think that we are all getting closer to being in the same boat again.

as time goes on, amigaworld.net is simply another community portal, rather than a splinter group.

No idea what you mean here.

AmigaWorld.Net is a website.
Amiga.Org is a website.

They are not the same website.
One was formed later.

You said the community was already split.  Along ideological lines, perhaps...but not literally split, in the sense that most everyone was hanging out at amiga.org.  Later the split was a bit more defined with one group at amigaworld.net and another at amiga.org

Yes, even I had an account on both sites, and still do....but thats quibbling over details...but thats exactly what you are going to do, so you win.
