Amiga.org news are less and less Amiga related
« on: October 15, 2003, 09:32:42 PM »
Hi,
Over the last months Amiga.org moderators have accepted several news that are not Amiga related.
If you look at the current news you can see (The New Mozilla,  X86-64 vs G5, Israel bans Microsoft Software, Firm sues Microsoft over music download service, ...)
Also the poll is mainly about PC games.
Would it be possible that the default Amiga.org does not display such things that I can find on other non Amiga sites ? Or maybe we should be able to rate news submission. It looks that some people are desesperate to post news bashing Microsoft or big IT stories. If it is to copy what is posted on main IT news website I don't see the point.  :-?

Is there no moderation mechanism ?
If I submit news about fishing will it go live ?  :-o

Didn't mean to attack the moderators, just that I didn't expected a.org to go that much off topic.
I could also blame the readers (including myself) to not submit enough news.
