"M" site?
The only site I post at that begins with an M is MorphZone and their posters never get as childish as we've gotten here lately.
I've enjoyed some off the off-topic posts, but if we can't play well together, maybe we should follow MorphZone's lead and stick to topics related to hardware and software.
I'd miss the occasional bit of silly banter, but maybe we ought to limit off topic posts.

MorphZone is a great site and was not the one I was referring too.

I've had enough of this new wave of hormonal behaviour and have decided to leave too. Whilst I have a cuppa, that is...

I'll just say the 'ignore' functionality has become the best of A.org's technical features.

Oh THAT site! Ugh!
Yes, completely filled with obnoxious twits that make all of you look like cuddly bunnies.

Funny, I've been visiting A.Org (and that's the main Amiga site I visit) so few times in the last year that I didn't even notice all of what is being referred, I normally just ignored the Commodore US or whatever threads and took a peek at the more technical stuff...
Those posts will go away anyway, I'm getting too old to care abou that...:)

Don't judge anyone by the time he has spent on this forum. I joined as recent as 2006 but familiarized with Amiga already late 80s.

Ann.lu needs to be reopened so this place cleans up a bit ;-)

Well said... and sometimes hundreds of post in just some months is worst.

Any news that is Amiga related is welcome here. Amiga.org has grown since 2009. If I were you I would avoid posting info on a site that starts with an M. We would never let Amiga.org get to the sorry state and spam infested loon town that the M site has become. Also on Amiga.org its easy to avoid members posts you don't like. Add to ignore list, rinse lather repeat. Remember less than five have been reported as starting problems.

Also remember that most people here would rather reduce or eliminate their own posting to the forums, not visit as often, or just plain leave, than to report other users to the moderators or administration here.  It is just not in their nature to report other members, or complain to the people responsible for keeping this site going.

I hope that the current owner(s) of A.org will do what ever it takes to return this site to what it once was, the best Amiga news and forum site on the planet.  I have been here a very long time.  Several years before the join date that is shown for my profile, due to my account being accidentally deleted during a site upgrade years ago and I lurked here before becoming a member, so I have seen the changes over the years and must say that the direction A.org is going at the moment is not the direction that will allow it to survive indefinitely.  It is more like the road to some hot unpleasant place.

Please do something to improve the experience here before we lose too many more members.
How are you helping the Amiga community? :)

What the heck happened here. (Havent kept up to date here)

Im a lucker normally but happened to catch this thread on my android phone on the bus home last night..

Can't believe for such an amazing platform like the Amiga and the long lasting community spirit things seem to be degrading..  

Hate to see anyone leave.  ;(

That's a coincidence. I was thinking yesterday maybe we need different and/or more moderators. I thought about bloodline cause he's made 10000+ postings but he hasn't indicated he would like to so far. Your post i quoted made a lot of sense and you said you have been here for a long time so maybe you could be a new mod? :)

@ Karlos. I don't think you are really leaving. If you are considering leaving over recent stuff happening it might just be a sign that you have been a mod too long. So maybe you should give you role to someone else so you only have to worry about talking about Amigas and not worrying about fixing the crap that has been on here lately :)

P.S. if you leave can i have you medal? ;)

After looking at Karlos' comment I began to think about some of the posters I haven't seen here recently that used to give good useful answers.
Anyone wonder about people that drop out without notice?
We could be losing some of the better forum members and not even be aware of it till its too late.
BTW - Has anyone seen a post by André Siegel recently?
I know Piru and Karlos are still here, but I don't remember hearing from André recently.
