I don't think he is here anymore, no idea why though. Try contacting him over at Amigaworld.net

After being appointed a moderator here late last summer he only made 20 more posts during the fall, and then seem to have disappeared altogether in the middle of November. He still posts at morphzone.org and amigaworld.net, so look for him there if you want to contact him.

I don't think this relates to him, but many people has been upset with the actions and behavior of the new owners of this site during the years since Wayne sold it, and the drama they chose to project on it, with secret owners and yada-yada, how they used the site for their own agenda, and a lot of other things. Many people left, like Jens Schönfeld of Individual Computers, and when the site owner decided to simply switch off the site because of him getting angry with something or whatever, it caused many more people to leave (most left silently though without making a fuss about it, they simply stopped posting, if you think about it there are many "names" missing here today).

But again, I don't think that's related to amigadave.
MorphOS is Amiga done right! :)

David is fine.
I just exchanged messages with him.

Like many of us, he occasionally tires of these forums.
I'm sure you'll see some posts eventually, either on AmigaWorld or MorphZone.

I miss some of the people who used to post.
At times (and I myself am guilty of this) we get a little rabid.
This puts off some people.

As an owner of legacy and NG systems, I personally have no real biases.
But at times, some of us have been less then polite with those we disagree with.

Thats part of the reason I dont post on here any more, a little too much drama, and very little moderation back then, things seem to have gotten better recently.
