Amigaworld.net is currently down due to hard drive failure.
Everything possible is being done to return the site to normal, however we are unable to give an ETA at this time.
In the meantime, the Amigaworld IRC network continues to function via the remaining US and European Amigaworld Servers
They are:-
UK.Amigaworld.Net
US2.Amigaworld.Net
NO.Amigaworld.Net
Updates will continue to be posted here as and when we know.

Amigaworld.net down : Comment 160 of 281 | ANN.lu |

Heh, well I'll give you Senex and Palpatine, dunno about the others, but Miky060 is a user. The idea of him working for Genesi is quite funny. :) BBRV himself is not a moderator and to my knowledge never has been. I think you should check your facts before telling me to check mine. I mean, it only took three clicks, not exactly taxing, is it.
I've never heard of any comment being moderated from MZ, ever. Even polyhead's abusive rants were never removed from MZ. Not that I think it can't happen, but it hasn't happened yet, so until it does AWN is simply not comparable to MZ. MZ is just not a site where camp politics ever appear in subjects. Why they DO in AWN so much I'd blame more on the presence of Bouma, Akey, and its obvious direct affiliation with the business presences inside it, and perhaps the fact that users haven't actually had to product to play/whine/praise with until recently. MZ is a MorphOS site, it's not a Genesi site, or a bPlan site, or an anti-Red site. You go there to ask questions about MorphOS, and that's it. Perhaps why its immune from the constant flamewars seen on other forums. |
