What happened to this site is what's about to happen to AmigaWorld; a protracted period of outage leading to members migrating to the English Amiga Board, Facebook and Discord!

I dont know why, but I do like amigaworld the most out of all the community site, it got the news, and some generally interesting discussions, debates.

Its by far the forum I post on the most and check the most. I do check up on amiga.org / EAB forum now and again. But dont post much. There is something about amigaworld that makes me go back there. So I hope its back up soon.

I don't want to be that guy, but this isn't busy. Believe me, I was here when it was busy. You had to keep your finger on the refresh button just to keep up, lol.

@Karlos

This was in the days before social media took over from traditional forum websites.  Given that AMIGA.org competes against mainstream social media platforms, it is doing well.

Moobunny was ... unique. One or two very unhinged posters on there.

Personally I never liked the way amiga.org's mainpage was changed on the "new" version... I know it's only a click away from the forums / news but for some stupid reason it never felt the same for me...

I wonder how much page rank this site loses for not having the home page served securely.

I'm not even sure Thierry was Thierry most of the time, at least on moobunny. So easy to impersonate someone else on there.

Is amigaworld.net down for everyone?

It's back up now. No new posts after 27 Dec (at time of writing).

@F0LLETT

If you want to take over the amigaworld.net server I'll step away in a heartbeat.

You can send me a public key and an IP address from which you wish to login (through Matthew would probably be best), I'll setup an account with sudo privileges and it can be all yours for the principle sum of $0.
