Today, I tracked over one hundred attempts of abuse on ANN. I've been working on the filters and editing mechanisms for over four hours. Maintaining ANN is turning into real work, and all I see are tasks that I despise. This one individual, and the general attitude on ANN lately, is alienating visitors and making this site a horrible place to be. Most of what I see is insults and blind advocacy... I'm tired... And I can just see the negative comments again, in reply to me posting this...

MOTD 02/01/2002 : Comment 26 of 174 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Graham on 03-Jan-2002 01:15 GMT | In reply to Comment 25 ([JC]): Surely the solution was to ignore the community as best as possible, if you didn't get along with them? Or find some subset of the community that you got along with much better than the others?
I really like the community still - there are a lot of interesting and intelligent people still, and ideas abound aplenty. Like any community there are the detractors, but we also now have some kind of prison outbreak as well making things extremely bad. We just have to hang together and get past it. Hopefully the release of real next generation hardware (both AmigaOne and Pegasos) and software (both AmigaOS4 and MorphOS) will stimulate the community and eradicate the naysayers and hackers.
The web (ANN.lu, Amiga.org) are (were) two of the best English sites remaining for Amigans to get news and discuss it. The Yahoo! groups and newsgroups are the other places to go. It would be a terrible shame to lose the former. |
