Think back to the 90's. What do you remember? Nirvana, gangster rap, Vanilla Ice and...
Amiga Web Directory.
Wow, that sure brings you back right? But what does AWD have to do with Amiga.org's outage?

The reason for Amiga.org's outage is revealed.. : Comment 25 of 59 | ANN.lu |
Posted by Wayne Hunt on 16-Nov-2002 14:41 GMT | In reply to Comment 24 (Grimmtooth): Update: The original poster of the images contacted me to state that he had received said images on a Zip disk given to him by Don Hicks (formerly owner/editor of the Amazing Amiga (?) Magazine) at the Gateway 97 show.
Given that information (now) do you still think me incorrect for asking for any degree of proof before removing them from the site?
The fact that digital images (instantly duplicatable) were received from Don Hicks certainly makes me wonder if I made the right choice by conceding to Mr. Hisel based on his magic "copyright".
Nonetheless, I find myself in a position where, if I pursue this issue, I might lose my Web hosting for Amiga.org. As such, Kevin apparently is able to win by default on yet another instance where he harrasses Amiga Webmasters without having the burden of proof on his shoulders.
I am very unhappy about this situation, but there is not much more I can do except to ban Kevin (along with the Greater Champaign area) and pass along a warning against this wanker.
