AInc can afford puppets? I dont know how they
keep T1s to their webserver up(or 110v AC for that matter).
hell, I dont know if they have the resources to buy
craft store marionettes and put on a puppet show, much
less command human "puppets" to revise their history.

Interesting read, though.

Well I hope all you people making wild accusations about AW and spinning crap conspiracy theories etc will eat your words and a piece of Humble pie.

@Everyone!

Stop the AW.net bashing.  Now.

I'm sure there are reasons for the thread to have been locked.  As a Xoops admin, I can very easily imagine that once the KMOS announcement was made, the "Ask Fleecy" column was "slashdotted" to the point of affecting their server.

I believe I would have -- in that case -- stated that specifically, but DaveyD isn't a crook or anything else and I really believe at this point that this is turning into just another thread by certain people to further their personal egos against certain admins of AW.net.

Face facts guys.  Bill and Fleecy may still be involved in OS4 (we don't know who KMOS is), they may not, but in my personal opinion, the fact that AW.net went out of the way to try and support, as well as "believe in" Amiga Inc when it was feasible to do so is an honorable thing -- even if I didn't personally agree with the motivation of a couple of their admin staff.

Since Amiga Inc sold AmigaOS, there's nothing more to see here unless you're actually interested in TAO's Intent product, so let's go back to our respective corners and leave each other alone....

*OR*....  (and I know this stretches the imagination here), we could actually all drop the past crap and try to build something constructive for the future.  I would prefer the latter at this point, but everyone would need to accept that there is compromise needed all around.

Now you are talking just bullshit.. Do a search in the forums, and then you will discover that the threads are still there..


Nope, if there's bullshit here it's not coming from me. I heard from reliable sources on IRC of people posting and their comments quickly deleted.

You know, a good start would be if all the major Amiga sites formed a kind of union and clamped down on all the AW, ANN, AO etc. bashing. An Amiga network perhaps? A nice gesture of goodwill would be if all these sites provided direct links to each others sites from the homepage. This doesn't mean it has to be prominent. Perhaps near the bottom of the page. But surely it's time the Amiga Community sites themselves played an active role in this coming together/reconcilliation. :-)
