Due to censorship by Argo the thread is locked but it is interesting to see a major Anti Amiga Inc webmaster turn in to a Genesi attacker and a certain website defender.

Interesting thread on Amiga.org : Comment 76 of 382 | ANN.lu |
Posted by XraalE on 06-Sep-2004 16:58 GMT | For the record, AO is not generally censored. Having been at AO regularly for 3 years, I understand that censorship occurs only in 3 major situations:
1) Posts which break site rules (insults, warez links, etc)
2) Off topic arguments in news posts
3) When Wayne gets into an argument he doesn't want to answer to.
3 doesn't happen much, but when it does, he will happily delete any counter-argument. He's very intolerant that way. It's happened many times. Most of the time it's when he gets into a circular argument with someone clueless who doesn't want to do anything but nitpick, and we all know how annoying and pointless such arguments are, so no shame there. He rarely will delete a first, second, or even third response, and usually locks the thread first.
However, on more than one occassion, he HAS simply deleted any response after one of his ill-thought out rants. Once he had insulted me of the same naivity and blindness he had shown in abundance in his earlier rant, he locked the thread. I opened another with the reply and he deleted it immediately.
Here is what I said, word for word. Judge for yourselves whether it is offensive, or nitpicking, or totally clueless. I don't think it is.
