New Owner of Amiga.org to be on Amiga Roundtable.

[Tension]

I don't like some of the negative tones in some of these replies, nor the sarcastic, or the mocking that some of the messages might be taken for.  Let's not put down the new owner before he/she/they are even introduced.

I also guessed that it was DiscreetFX long ago (maybe first), but I am not so sure anymore, but if it is, why start assuming negative things about Amiga.org becoming nothing more than a site to promote the Video Toaster products, or put down the positive impact that the NewTek Video Toaster/Flyer had for the Amiga?

Yes, I agree that the VT/Flyer had little to no effect on EU Amiga users, but it probably kept Commodore alive a few months longer with the increased sales of A4000's to the TV industry in the US and Canada, that would not have been there without the NewTek VT/Flyer.

Give the new owner(s) a chance to introduce themselves and explain their reason(s) for purchasing A.org and their plans for future changes (IF ANY), that will effect all of us.  Let's not show the new owner(s) our worst side before we even know who they are, and if it is Bill P. and company, so what, it could be so much worse.  Trust Wayne and his statements that he has turned the reins over to someone who will take good care of this place that we all enjoy and have loved for so many years and hope that it will continue for many more years to come.

Dont tell me you`re the new owner.

With warm hearts I offer my friendship, and my greetings, and I hope this letter meets you in good time. It will be surprising to you to receive this proposal from me since you do not know me personally. However, I am sincerely seeking your confidence in this transaction, which I propose with my free mind and as a person of integrity. My name is Jacob Kamala the son of Mr. A.Y Kamala, a farmer from Zimbabwe, murdered in the land dispute in my country. As led by my instinct, I decided to contact you through email…

On schedule and rocking™

This thread is developing a nasty overtone.

If this site was ever to close down, we would all be screwed.  

Let's get everything in perspective here.
