Commodore Scotland Under Threat...

[Franko]

Sure, it's not hard to find them (ks images), but there's been more than a few situations where sites hosting them have been forced to remove them, instigated by A.Inc (although Im dubious your email is from them and in the last year or so they seem to have stopped persuing it with the vigour they once did). If it comes to that then you'll lose if you choose to fight it. Love or hate them, it is thier property. Again though, I personally dont really care.
I assume your last sentence is in regards to Dammy, and I have to agree that yes, it's just Dammy being Dammy.

Well as I never received a reply to the email I sent to whomever sent that one to me, then the site shall remain as is until whomever it is clarifies just what they are objecting to in detail...

Then and only then will I decide whether to remove whichever items them are referring to or whether to challenge them further...

Yes, Last comment was directed at MR SUPERGRASS...

Dunno, I'm not sure what an IP address means or how to go about checking it...

Yet you spent the time and money for anonymous domain registration?  

Now if someone could give me few tips I'd be happy to try and find out (although judging by the other thread Dammy AKA MR SUPERGRASS has all but admitted it was him)...

Why would I even bother sending you an email?  I wouldn't bother to email you Mr.Pirate, who is costing Cloanto sales.  I would send it to abuse@names.co.uk and to Pyro that your spamming your pirate wares site on his site.  But I haven't because Pyro seems to feel comfortable with you promoting your pirate site.

To be perfectly honest I don't give a S&!T about the legal arguments, I'm just glad hundreds of folk have already been able to download these for free. If it comes to a legal case I'm quite happy to fight it...

The same stuff on my site can be found easily on the net and why no-ones complaining about them I don't know. Simple fact here is those who pretend to be all high and mighty on the subject are nothing but a bunch of two faced hypocrites...

I'd like to think that the reason OS4.x isn't on there is more because it is an active product which you can still purchase, unlike the other stuff.

I just realised that AI never even bothered putting copies of WB3.1 for sale in their online shop.

I must admit, Im surprised at how easy it is to find AmigaOS4.x online for download. I dont really understand why people would bother to upload it being that the hardware to run it on typically comes with OS4.x (apart from classic version), but for whatever reason they have. If something like sheepshaver or qemu worked with OS4.x then Id understand, but as yet they dont.

Right I've gathered by now that your very dim indeed, I spent the time all 20 minutes of it in response to a thread on here a while back buying the site name CommodoreScotland.com which dummy is not anonymous although judging by your lack of intelligence you obviously think that anonymous means something with a name, you really are thick aren't you... :lol:

You can send emails to whomever you like and while your at it why not send one about your beloved CUSA promoting the availability of pirated software, I could have easily done this myself but I'm not a petty sniveling little turd like you are...

Why do you keep bringing Pyro into this ?, seems you just can't handle anything that's said against your bum chum & his rip off site. Do me favour and go and play in the traffic although you'd probably complain when you get run over that the car that hit you was not the latest CUSA model and was just a crappy Rolls Royce that ran you down...

I've met some very weird folk in my time but you've gotta rate as one of the all time saddest and weirdest little pieces of crap I've even had the misfortune to come across...

Keep up with your personal attacks, your doubting who I am and all the rest of the BS you spout, as to be honest with you I find this a great way to spend a Sunday afternoon...

I can't wait to see what you wee brain cell manages to come up with next...

Oi Franko!  That's no way to talk to C-USA's new Public Relations Manager!

OS4 isn't there because it's still on sale same as OS3.9 isn't on there, everything else that's there is because other than downloading them from sites like mine from the net there is not other way for folk to easily (if at all) purchase them anymore...

As I've said anyone can easily find every piece of Amiga software on the net, just reckon it's way past the time to stop pretending that this is not the case and put an end to all the nonsense that this is somehow harming sales somewhere and pretending that this doesn't happen...

I've already said here that you can get hold of KS ROMS & Some Workbench versions by purchasing Cloanto's Amiga Forever but what about folk who have no use for Amiga Forever why should they have to pay over the odds for something when all they need is a working copy of some Workbench disks...

At the end of the day I don't make a single penny from my site in fact it costs me money to run the thing, so what the fuss is all about I really don't know...

[Franko]

Just talking to him in the same manner they address the Amiga Community...

Guys, the name-calling is getting really pathetic. Why can't these topics be discussed maturely? Franko, you never used to behave this way. Your posts always used to be very entertaining.

I don't think anybody wants to read childish, insulting comments. It makes this site quite unpleasant. So please, everyone, just be civil or let it go.

People here used to be crazy on the attack when they found any copyright infringement (which like it or not is what you are doing) Many of them have left or don't attack as much anymore.

Ebay stuff was especially bad, they would email ebay if a commodore logo, or disc filled with copyrighted stuff was for sale.

Like I said though, offering copyrighted material for download, even if you don't make money, and even if you don't make money on it.

I bought Amiga Forever several times for a variety of reasons, and I don't really care what you do with your site, but they could concievably come after you, they have before.

[AmigaNG]

I'm afraid weather you like it or not you are breaking the law, even if a product is not available to purchase you are still braking the law. Sorry mate, I like your website it reminds of the good old days of the internet which is why I'm a member, but just giving you a warning that you may lose this one.

@ KThunder & AmigaNG

I do know what I am doing you know, whether legal or not that is my problem to deal with when the time comes. It's only my opinion but it's way past time this whole subject was brought out into the open and debated properly...

At the end of the day if no company is willing to re-release all this old software at a price that is fair & reasonable and make it easily available to purchase, then perhaps what I am doing may result in something being done to help bring this about...

[Franko]

Yeah I know it sounds childish but you did ask the question, what did you want me to say OOOh sorry moto I won't do it again and not even put my point across to your question, c'mon...

It has been discussed before, it has been it the courts before and they have always sided with the copright holder. If the copyright holder wants you to take it down they can legally force you to, and can even sue you for losses in Amiga Forever sales.
