@ Cloanto

You'll be pleased to know that I have removed and actually deleted myself all links and ADF files in relationship to Workbench.

You're probably asking why the sudden change of heart or was I forced to delete them, well no I wasn't forced to delete them, I chose to do so for the very simple reason that... Upon reflecting what I was trying to do here on behalf of myself and for the Amiga Community then I have decided (and sorry to all the decent guys out there who supported me on this to one degree or another) that there are too many -=Moderated=- in this so called Amiga Community that make such an endeavour a total waste of my time & money.

There are more decent folk who post on this site than the -=Moderated=- who also post here, but these -=Moderated=- who like nothing better than making anything anyone tries to do that may benefit the Amiga Community just not worth it.

Mostly they are the usual suspects who have never owned or used a real Amiga in years (if ever they ever did at all) and even worse are the ones who because they have written some crap piece of software that has nothing to do with the real Amiga hardware, somehow think they should automatically be respected and everyone should bow down before them and pat their over inflated egos and boost their idiotic feelings of self importance, then as I say It's just not worth me caring about any longer.

So feel free to continue with any legal action you may wish to take or have started to take already against me, I'll deal with that when it comes.

As of now I've removed everything you wanted and if there are any more you think I should know about then feel free to contact me and I will remove those too.

As for me I'm out of this whole farce of a subject as I really couldn't give a -=Moderated=- anymore about it or the so called Amiga Community... :)

Yours Sincerely

Frank Spiers

Seems instead he found this group wasn't worth the effort of an argument.

How about an edit on the rest of that mess before someone warms up the report button?

Almost correct in your assumption but not quite... ;)

You see this thread became nothing more than the usual armchair experts in all things copyright and legal experts in their own minds, posting the usual repetitive drivel on their own "expert" (but highly flawed) interpretations of the various copyright/ trademark laws, as usual they failed to even comprehend the original topic and question... :(

It also became nothing more than certain folk who haven't owned or used a real Amiga in years doing their best (for whatever strange reason they have) of trying to prevent genuine Amiga hardware users from being able to obtain easily some very old software that no-one who allegedly owns it could care less about... :(

The only good that came of this thread was the revelation that Cloanto, despite not being the copyright holders are the only party guilty of preventing this 20 odd year old software from being made easily and legally available to those who still wish to obtain it... :(

So I removed all my posts as a) I had found part of the answer I was looking for (all be it unexpectedly) and b) to make the the pathetic drivel of the armchair lawyers look even more pathetic and ridiculous than they really are (if that is at all possible)... :)

So there you have it, the thread partially served its purpose and provided me with some of the answers I was seeking and now I can carry on quietly with my original intention of getting to the bottom of all this without the distraction of the loony copyright mafia squad... :)

@ Dammy

Stick to MooBunny Dammy, at least over there your babblings are a bit more entertaining (not much but a bit)... :)

That reminds me I'd better nip over and see what insults you've come up with for me today... :lol:

@ Piru

No offence Piru but I don't wish to converse with a humourless android... :)

Not by a long shot :cool:


Ahh.. a cryptic message... just what I needed... :rolleyes:

Possibilities are...

A) Someone who genuinely supports what I am trying to do...
B) Someone from Cloanto or a supporter of them, thinks they have found something to make a legal case out of...
C) A nutter...
D) My other self posting under a new name and I haven't told myself about it yet...

Take yer pick... ;)

@ AmigaHeretic

I suppose these women could get an emulator to drive the car for them (all done virtually of course) and that way they wouldn't be a danger to society, unless the emulator happens to crash due to running a dodgy version of WorkBench on it or worse one download from my site... :)

Pretty sure there's a site out there selling such an emulator or failing that they might find something on AmiNet for free... :)

"Like this hasn't already been common knowledge for the last 15 years..."

Typical amiga.org smartass facecious comment. Not everyone has been here for 15 years. Comprende ?


+1

I guess all the new folk who post here asking where can I find this or that must be lacking in this "common knowledge" and therefore not worthy of an answer in some folks eyes... ;)

@ Damion

There are new folk to the Amiga scene all the time (as this site proves) who have never owned an Amiga in their lives, you can't expect them to have some miraculous knowledge about where to find things or does passing on this knowledge not sit too well with you... ;)

@ Damion

Just to help show you that your idea that this is "common knowledge" isn't quite true, then please read this post from just a few days ago... ;)
