I wold have thought that guy taking about 30 year old joys sticks would be as dull as an Eddie Murphy comedy... but no... "This was one of the first joy sticks, to have a button, on the stick" "Another nice thing is that it has a stainless steel ball..."

I wonder when Doomy finds out that we've arrived in the digital age and you won't have to use your 70s VCR to record a video and digitize it afterwards... Plus connecting left/right audio channels the way the audience needs them... (Audience? What audience?  :crazy:) :lol:

Isn't he risking his life by making videos and showing to people who he really is and what he looks like?

I guess there are plenty of people that have been cheated by him,and plenty of people that would want to punch him a lot.

If i were him i would avoid posting videos or pictures of myself.



I don't know much about this person.  But is it at all possible that he is mentally ill and someone we should be taking pity on?

no, he is not ill and unfortunately there is no cure for being a jerk.
Better sorry than worry.

Well I asked a question.  I hardly made any statement in his defense now did I?  

Has anyone ever involved the cops to try to shut this guy down?

Ok then.  Though I shudder at the thought that a sane grown man without any beers in him and without doing it on a dare actually purposely sings "Only Amiga".  Where I come from thats not considered well.   :lol:

 :flame:

Someone needs to take him away, maybe to the moon so he stops breathing. I agree he needs help....

MEH! Over a cliff maybe!

I got better things to do with my time then watch this jerk, slamming my head in a door would be more fun.

I'm off to play F.E.A.R, at least I can shoot the scary stuff I see on the screen and it goes away, unlike the blight on the Amiga world that is DOOMY!!

Falling into a dark and red rage.

Ive heard a lot of Doomy-bashing since i regestered. What did he do, or is he just a nutcase??

Christ, where to start?

Scammer, Dickhead, obsessed and I mean obsessed with Military Spec A2000's and generally insane.

If you walk funny and he offers to fix it.... refuse.

Ok, I watched some of it right up to the point where he described a joystick as:

"instead of using microswitches, this one uses the higher quality, more professional leaf-switches"

Is he mad?! Leaf switches are notoriously unreliable because they bend out of shape and lose contact! (aside from that, leaf switches were used in joysticks originally, and later replaced BY microswitches).  The only benefit of leaf switched joysticks was that they were quieter to use.

Someone needs to tell him the Video Toaster is better and more feature rich in an Amiga 4000 instead of his beloved Amiga 2000, LOL. Doomy has a video out where he explains that the Video Toaster is better in an A2000.
