Ted Ga11ion - the shy amiga.org owner
« on: January 30, 2012, 06:01:00 AM »
Now, unless if Ted Ga11ion is actually going to amend the posting guidelines here, what would be the justification for editing/removing the posts mentioning his name?

Maybe it's a goofy thing to prevent spoilers to the audio that will be removed some time later.

The only "justification" he needs is that it is his website and his choice.

I hear if you type your social security number here, it stars it out.  For instance, ***-**-****.

Pretty cool, huh?

Joke, BTW.

Ah!  I finally figured out why the extreme closeup on Piru's screenshot...

When they pulled back, there was too much reflection off of the tin foil hat...  ;-)

This is not a "public meeting place," this is a privately owned site that we use...
If he doesn't want his name all over it, he has that right..

It would be nice to think we can be respectful enough to accept that, rather than react as tho he's covering up something or removing our ability exchange ideas openly..

This is about the most open site I've seen...
The ..er.. "discussions" here are allowed HUGE amounts of leeway...
Much more than on many other sites....

Interesting.....

I'm reminded of a line from Life of Brian..

"Just no pleasing some people"....  ;-)

Why does it matter if we know who owns the site or not? It's a good site, I enjoy it. Now that I know some name to call it's owner, what has changed? So far I still enjoy it and think it's a good site. And being able to type or say a name still doesn't tell me who that is, and I really don't care. It's a good site that I enjoy, so whoever he is, he must be doing OK with it.

What do you care?  I personally wouldn't want my name plastered all over the place either.  That is why we all use aliases when online genius...  

Talk about trolling...

I really get tired of this kind of BS...  When you buy your own site you can post your sorry name all over it if you like, but THIS site is owned by someone that doesn't wish to do that.  And by the way, as has been stated numerous times, this site is NOT a country and NO RIGHTS ARE IMPLIED.  You have no effing right to anything here as a user.  The OWNER can do any damned thing he/she wants in regard to his/her site and that is how it should be.  All of you "I am entitled to blah blah blah" can shut yer holes and buy your own site.  If you don't like the fact that you have zero rights here..   LEAVE   Regardless STFU and let the rest of us enjoy the site that has been graciously provided by someone we don't even know..
