This was after he employed Franko to troll on the site, of course.


Allegedly and I'd take what Franko says with a pinch of salt.

I have a serious question or two.

What was your prime motivator to buy Amiga.org?

What connections with the Amiga community did you have before aquiering A.org?

Questions to current Amiga.org owner:

1.  Why has the moderation of this site been so lax to let the dozen or so most vocal members ruin so many threads with their behavior that (IMHO) violates the TOS and makes reading most threads an unpleasant experience?

2.  What are you going to do about improving this problem and when are you going to start disciplining the offenders?

Is it only me when I say this site went to sewer after Wayne. Egomaniac with funds

Yes, ban me for telling what I really think.

Which explains why Wayne still posts here.
Get serious. We create the posts, so we're responsible for them.
I even enjoyed some of Franko's posts.

With my friends Xdelusion, AmigaDave, Nicholas, and Karlos still posting here I'm staying.
And I'd hardly call it a sewer.
But feel free to (I doubt it would get you banned - you'd have to be posting on AmigaWorld for that to happen).

Well said, although probably way too logical for an amiga site  :P

Near as I can tell this is where I write something under the guise of being innocuous, but really its a pot shot at another persons/peoples choice of Amiga based systems. Unfortunately only I cant see how transparent and petty it makes me look.

Who are you?
 
How did you become an amiga fan?
 
How much time do you spend on amiga.org?
 
How much web traffic does Amiga.org receive each day?
 
Has amiga.org had any issues with use of amiga trademark and images and do you foresee any problems in the future?
 
Do you have any plans to update or add additional features to amiga.org  site and if so what are they or what would you like to offer?  
 
What do you feel about twitter, facebook, google plus as more people use  these site to discuss topics and could these services play a part in  amiga.org? (example liking or +1 a news post or something)
 
Which amiga camp do you like the most? and why? os4, morphos, aros, classic, c=usa, other?

The bashing, flaming, off-topic, and trolling that goes on, it happens  on pretty much any amiga web site, specially when its a web site that  try to cover all above camps how do you feel amiga.org has handled it?

 Where do you hope to see amiga.org and the amiga community in 5 years time?

Do you have any regrets buying amiga.org?

what has been the highlight and the low points since you took over amiga.org?

how important do you feel it should be to make the site compatible with legacy amiga bowers? would it stop any upgrades/updates in the future?

Yes. As far as Amigans are concerned it is the same as what has happened in the last 15 years. It's called limbo   :eek:

PS where you been? :confused:
