I don't see AOS4 users attacking other paradigms on purpose, just when provoked.


You do it all the time yourself mr. DAX, you even did it a few times in this latest post of yours.
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

Don't you think this comment might be taken offensively by users of other platforms? (my emphasis)


There are a few people (always the same people) who do this all the time, all over, not only on amiga.org.

One of my favorites is "I want Amiga, not Windows MacOS, Linux, or MorphOS", i.e. when they group MorphOS together with completely alien OS's, and discard it as such. "MOS is not TEH REEEL!!!11!!". Belittling and degrading. "...but it's not Amiga". And when you present rational  arguments on why MorphOS is actually more Amiga and more preferable than "TEH REEEL!!!11!!", they are never able to present counter arguments, instead they start some meta-discussions about the discussion itself, crying "Foul!", "The war is over", "Moderators!",  and "I don't see OS4 people posting negative stuff on MorphZone.org" or such crap. This pattern always repeats.

There is a term for these people: BAF's. Blind Amiga Followers. This is a good term, since it describes both their inability to consider options, as well as their priorities; a semi-robbed, quasi trademark is all they care about. Having the ultimate Amiga NG experience doesn't interest them at all.

Boing! Boing!
