New OS4 Community Portal

[redrumloa]

What OS4? What licensed hardware :-? Is this a site only targeting a few hundred Teron based AmigaOne users? That seems to be a fairly narrow focus doesn’t it?

/me shrugs

[redrumloa]

Morphzone for MorphOS, Amigans.net for OS4/Amigans. AO and AW for a mixture. It is all fine to me, I think there is a place for a OS4 only site. It is only fair if the MorphOS users get their own site.

Just for the record, discussion of other platforms and Ami* like solutions besides MorphOS is allowed on MorphZone.

I wonder why there`s no mention whatsoever of it on AW?

It's been said the people behind this new site have been bad mouthing AWN and this is essentially a new so called organized mass exodus from AWN to this new site, as what was done years ago from AO by intolerant platform nazis who can't stand simple reality. If someone is actively badmouthing your site, would you give them free publicity? I don't know the story, this is just hearsay. If that is what really happened, I don’t blame AWN one bit.  :roll:

-Edit-
Oh come to think of it, I have been reading and posting on AWN for a few weeks now after not having been there in quite some time. I must say AWN is becoming a relatively pleasant forum. Whyzzat?? ;-)  AO is still my favorite, but AWN has it's qualities now.

It's certainly not becuase of the industry wide demand for AOS, MOS or AROS.

There's not :-?

 :-P

[redrumloa]

more devs replying? since when did we get a straight answer out of a developer? lol

Exactly, it's not as if they have been very forthcoming.

[redrumloa]

So I am the intolerant one?

1. I have not insulted anyone who supports morphos, genesi efika windows linus or any other hardware\software computer solution.

2. I have not haranged or made life difficult for those with different views.

3. I have not given anyone a hard time because they choose to join a different website.

4. I have not insulted anyone, cussed or cursed the website that people decide to support, or generalized in an insulting or derogative manner those who choose to support a different website.
 

PLUNK
Exuse me?  I just fell off my chair! :-o I have been on the wrong end of venom from your mouth in the past

Now, just look at those that have done so IN THIS THREAD, then ask yourself who is the intolerant one.

You've bashed me right here on AO in the past and it went unmoderated, yet you are insinuating that you are unduly attacked in this thread? Wow.

Putting all that aside, while some of this thread is heated I don't see any specific personal attacks against individuals. If I am wrong and I missed anything feel free to PM a moderator with specific information.

[redrumloa]

I always thought Mikey_C was a person.

Yes he is, was there personal attacks we missed? Or just remarks on actions?

[redrumloa]

But insulting an entire group is acceptable, as long as it's not filled with individuals of course.

Then you get to a point of where do you draw the line? Especially when then this group has shown intention to do harm to other sites?

Also, I may have totally missed something as this thread is getting quite long. If there are specific attacks against a group that sound personal, let a mod know the specifics. Are we talking about comments on the need to have a segregated community site? People are going to have strong opinions on this, especially considering the method of the so called exodus. Or are we talking about outright personal insults?

[redrumloa]

Ok, a quick search back through the thread I see the f***tard link. It has been modded.

@All
Refrain from personal insults. f***tard is a personal insult.

Allowed, not encouraged

Yup, but allowed. Also Targgy doesn't preemptively ban users and hack/slash moderate as site policy.
