Today a so-called Amiga site which was supposed to allow freedom of speech has now become a exposed heavily censored website, webmasters acting like children insulting members of the site just because they stand up and say what they think.
I feel betrayed.

Nothing if we share the same ethical positions and ***mainly***
a system of common values...
I am nothing versus amiga.org and considered the words of people writing bad things regarding amiga.org nothing than prople giving vent to their anger...
Until I saw your post "castled" in a arrogant position full of words such as
"priviledge...

But these word you wrote just now and especially

Seems to me that now we share the same system of common values...
Yes... opportunities, rights, privledges in the world of digital democracy are subject to compromises...
I hope we are thinking of compromises not only as:
(for example)
cast priviledges owned by the webmasters... (fascism)
...or excessive free given to the writers (anarchy)
i.e. I do not want that all the weight of the netiquette must be carried by the shoulders of the customers...
...or all the responsability must be carried by the webmasters
Or viceversa...
We sure must TOGETHER rely always with compromises |
