yeah this is not news... more nonsense from a nonsense company... they need to deliver some T-Shirts before they do anything else... taking peoples money and not giving product is far from ideal.

Is that all that matters to you is a T-Shirt.
So ppl send Amiga.inc £50 & get a T-shirt & that should make you happy.

send me £50 & ill get you a T-shirt seeing thats all you want for £50

This should be in forum as the Q&A was not at Amiga.org. so ppl can talk about the questions & the replys with out name calling or flamming.

You do you think name calling & flamming is a good thing.
 
 
@Wayne

Seeing as you dont like this item & its not following your rules of NEWS & is going way off topic why dont you lock it or delete it.

As you your self are breaking your own rules your self with your comments on this thread.

@Alky

Xoops doesn't let you lock a news post and deleting it would create all hell.  Looking through my comments, I do not see myself calling people names or attacking them.  I have, to the best of my knowledge only spoken Facts and my own personal opinions.

If I said "Mike Bouma is an arse" or "Fleecy is an unqualified twit" that might be a difference.  I have said nothing to those effects, simply that Mike and Fleecy (and others) have schemed against this site.  This is true..  It is factual, and from my perspective, not open for debate.  The only question is whether I have served my own best interest by telling the truth in this situation.   I also stated that it is not news.  It should be a forum post as more applicable.  

In what way have I violated my own rules?

[Alkemyst]

Wayne but your OFF TOPIC.

Its about what ppl think about the question & the replys.

Not about fleecy character.

& bringing in MikeB's character into it is even more OFF TOPIC.

@alky

News posts have no topics.  This means of course, that you are absolutely correct.  I think what steered us off-topic is the initial reasoning that this is not news and only serves as free advert for AW.  I agreed, and each successive post was just a bit more off topic.

[Alkemyst]

Wayne good so your saying its ok for someone to post it in a forum.

@alky,

That was my original post and the only thing I really wanted people to understand.  It SHOULD be a topic post, not a news post.  I've now said this 5 times. :-)

Wheee this has been busy today:-) I missed all the fun :-P

Sorry but when topic start to turn to crap i glance over posts.

Gone are the days that i used to read every post on good topics & spend half the night reading through that i thought was intresting only to find out that 90% was crap & trolling & flames.

And that actual good stuff if i knew exactly where it was was only about 10mins worth of reading.

What DE/AA has to do with he Amiga platform, and why it even remotely interests classic Amiga users, I cannot fathom.

It has nowt to do with the AmigaClassic platform, except its name. But why it interests us? Oh, thats easy, we're all geeks. We are fascinated by PDAs, Sub-Notebooks, smartphones, game-boys and the like. We all want to play a game  on an ipaq, save the game, then continue it on a palm tungsten, just for the pure geekiness of it all! :-)

Waste of time Q&As.

@ Wayne

"Then again, having heard substantial rumors lately of bank accounts closed and other interesting oddities, maybe they already have and news simply hasn't reached "Fleecy".

Humm Money.  I would hope that Amiga Inc would be up front and let the world know, that they are having money problems.  Oh well, so much for that.

[Warrent]

@ Tomas 

I agree with you.  They are out of money and just do not want to tell us.  My only hope now, is that Eyetech will come out with the Amigaonge boards and that maybe OS 4, they are not part of Amiga Inc., so maybe.  Ya, it is a hope

"It is your website. You do whatever you like with it. But
please be honest about it "

Yup, I too hope that Wayne will look at his reason of not wanting Fleecy's Q&A linked here???  Heck, at the rate Fleecy is going most people will just skip the link here.  I too think there is more going on than just a isuse about news of Fleecy being linked here.  Like you said, it is Wayne site so, . . . he has the last word here.  I just hope that the same standard will be applied to all other news items :-)  In my opion, I have read other so called news items, that would not pass the Fleecy standard.  But the boss is the boss.

Please.  For the love of all that is holy.  Show me EXACTLY where I said this?  How many times must I clarify that I think it's fine for what it is?  What it is not a news item any more, it's no more than a recurring forum post.

For God's sake people, please read what is posted before replying.  This makes 6 times I've had to say the same thing in 6 different verbages.

I stand corrected.  I meant as a news item.  I too have seen other news items that were not up to the standard of Fleecy's new item.  I hope all news items will be held to the same standard :-)

LOL!
Ok Seriously, I'm glad that you say what you have to say, independently of them.
I've allways doubted A.Inc. and for various times asked  them to clarify their intentions with regard to AOS ( in forums, even mailed them two or three time), wich is the reason the community would continue to support them. Now that they  seem to have seen  that, they pay more attention to it.
But if they turn AOS to a layer to support their own agenda they can take a flying hyke.
I try to maintain optimism and think that if they want us to support them with DE, they'll have the dignity to give what we want in return (AOS), mostly since it's not even their work.
By they way I have questions more or less regarding this(what will OS5 be, if it will it lose it's character when it becomes a server OS, like I saw on an OlafBarthel interview etc.) waiting to be answered and I think they'll be asked sooner or later. If they are, it could be  proof that Aw is not so biased as people say.
