OMG, what is it *this* time? :rolleyes: Please keep me out of your bantering!

Iggy,

The purpose of this discussion board is not to be an arena for you to categorize people, "colorize" people, insult people, etc. It's a discussion board where everyone can talk about all things Amiga. Hence you *can* speak out your opinion about the "Xcore/Xena/Xorro" of the X1000, which also includes critical opinions, at least it *should* be, and this *without* being haunted and taunted, called a troll etc by you or "your friend" amigadave (who also happens to be a *moderator* of this board(!)).

I don't know if you are drunk or just rambling here, but this was probably the most pointless thread amiga.org has seen in a long time, and while I don't mind you having a "wet monday" or whatever (couldn't care less), I kindly ask you to not drag me into it. If you want my opinions on the viability of the X1000 project, then you can have it, but don't start up a bloody thread just to play some blame game for... well, whatever it is *this* time??!

:mad:

TMHG, I think it is safe to say that you are really into MorphOS, right? Okay, cool.  That's all he was saying.

Eh, no, that's not all he was saying. And why the sudden need to make that kind of statement about me out of thin air? And why is *my* personal preferences suddenly so important to him (or to general readers of this board) that it should be highlighted, here? And now?

:confused:

And the only Comment of his that I can see what him defending you.

"Defending"? This I really don't get, already in the second paragraph there is some crap about assigning blame on me, for whatever, I have no idea what it is this time? Don't care either...

The whole purpose of this thread is to *hopefully* mend some wounds and bridge some gaps.

Yeah?

• He say "don't point fingers" by actually pointing fingers!
• He say he "supports all interests and respect others opinions" by highlighting interests and opinions that he obviously doesn't think is OK!
• He say "we all need to take this a little less seriously" by making a long, raving, post out of thin air, that is everything *but* relaxed.
• And basically, he is saying "we shouldn't be control freaks" by making a post that essentially is a try to apply control on postings

:lol:

:crazy: :crazy: :crazy:

You posted here first so he didn't "drag" you into it either

No I didn't, Iggy posted here first, he is the OP, dragging me into something (I'm not sure about what, but I'm sure it's not something positive) in that first post already. Then in those later posts his true emotions shines through even more, calling me a smurf, the ironic "I love you SO much", etc.

I don't mind him doing that per se, I'm not that soft skinned (:lol:), but starting a bloody thread just to do it seems kind of pointless and mean-spirited. And it's very pointless since it has no context, it's like a flash from a blue sky.

It is obvious that you Don't see what Iggy is saying as funny.  I do and I think most others do to.

But I do think it's funny (and I think "Iggy" himself is quite a bit funny as well). I however laugh *at* it, not "with" it (see the above bullet list).

:lol:

The thread is pointless, bit-wise mean spirited, totally uncalled for, not Amiga related, in other words: Pointless Spam!

In other words (again) a big:

:mad:

(Soon I bet "his friend" amigadave (the moderator) comes here labelling me as a troll, or a lunatic (or possibly both in the same post, as he has done before), and a few OS4 diehards cough up their usual "we will never buy MorphOS because of you" mantra crap (yeah, like that would have happened anyway!:lol:), and then this thread will be "perfect"... :rolleyes:)

Since this thread "is what it is" anyway:

Have you thought of the Irony of this:

• An originally black man (we can call him Michael Jackson) bleaches his black skin pale white.
• Then he writes a song about black or white - preaching colors doesn't matter? "I'm not gonna live my life being a 'color'". Hmm, yeah...

How weird isn't that?

Wonder if there perhaps are some "Michael Jackson's" at some other places that has very strong "color focus"? Like here?

Is there a thing called "color fetishism" BTW? If it is, I think quite a few of them "color fetishists" seems to be hanging out on this site. Many discussions about colors here, in many threads. Not that I have anything against colors of course, personally I generally like colors, I like all colors, in fact I like all the colors in the rainbow. I'm a rainbow lover! But hmm, that doesn't of course mean I'm gay or so. Not that I have *anything against gays* or anything like that, no no, it's just that I'm not one of them! Heck, speaking of it, I'm not really into colors at all really, after all, come to think of it.

I just like being able to use MorphOS on my reasonable priced Mac Mini with reasonable performance once in a while. And I also think the whole X1000 idea was so stupid that it should never have left the design stage, it should have been swept down from the drawing table directly in the trash bin, along with the calculations showing $400,000 development costs and a consumer price tag of $3,000. And here it is: It's very easy (at least for me) to make that kind of simple statements without using one single color (not *1*)!

So please, count me out from your color games, I don't really want to participate. "I'm not going to live my life being a color", why not? Because I don't care! I don't want to be part of peoples "Smurf" fetishes either, keep that away from me. And while we are at it: save your "find the troll" games for those who actually participating in that game by, say, *trolling* instead of wasting it for those making relevant remarks about factual things, even if you don't like those remark. If you call everyone "troll" just because you are too lazy to raise a valid counter argument in the discussion, then you have destroyed the meaning of that fine word and exhausted any future possibilities of actually using that word to describe the concept "trolling" (the *real* trolling that is).
