So the MS Mafia is onto MikeB or something? Why is MikeB so special, alot of you who want him banned usually post 'Anti-Sony' stuff, and dont deny it.

It works both ways

Lol, we don't want him banned for being anti-MS.  Look into him and his threads and you'll make the connection

 

So you want him banned because he uses dodgy sources and has a financial interest in Sony?

And is a stealth troller bent on the promotion of Amiga/Sony, and when his misinformation is discovered and he has been proven wrong, he goes off and uses the same wrong information in another thread.  It's an endless cycle with MikeB and his attempts to deceive people for the benefit of his personal endevours.

they did it to prevent Sony from taking over the living room.

Kool, Im not gona take sides in this one. I agree with quite abit of what MikeB says, and I never really noticed any wrong doing. You guys though seem to believe firmly that he should be banned, and seem to have theorys or info to back it up.

Im staying on the fence

1) Look past that. Anyone that says things you agree with will make a positive impression on you. 

2) Agreeing with someone makes difficult to spot wrongdoings, because of 1)

Con men use 1+2 to gain trust, not saying Mike is one, of course... just that the combination of both those things tends to make things difficult to see.

Anyways, I hope the pillow is comfortable ;)

Like always, imagination running wild (theories, as malicious as possible).

There's a reason why they near to never quote me or link an article or posting of me. Usually they link to some upset fanboy and yes I have written many things which will see people either agree or disagree, thus people not being upset at all and people being angered.

I had more faith in the AmigaOS4 team than in the MorphOS project for the long run (and I still do). I have more faith in the PS3 than in the XBox 360.

Ironically what I got criticized for in the past by some MorphOS and AROS supporters was for focussing too much on AmigaOS4 at OSNews. So I covered those two projects some more as well (100% neutral in my news postings, only one opinion piece included some facts some fans preferred not to be mentioned). Hence my fights with Genesi managers (owners/CEO, primarily Bill Buck I assume) started (although I already had disagreements with Neko (Matt Sealey) before this incident due to his attacks on OS4 developers).

Classic MikeB!  Clearly we "never quote you or link you" when I think we've linked you multiple times in this thread alone and tons more on the 360 DVD limit is 6.8GB thread.  You want us to quote your BS?  My wall is starting to fill with links of it now.  Only a matter of time till I present the full case before the mods.

Oh and very nice way of keeping to your marketing tactic by slipping in tons of stuff on the AmigaOS4   All of which we can't dispute since you have no physical proof of any of these past events.  Way to side-track!

Thats part of the key Mike, you say, "Like always".  It speaks volumes.  You see, most people don't earn bans and abuse reports repeatedly at most of the places they frequent on the web.  They don't have large groups of people summarizing the subtleties of their stealth trolling, all with eerily similar detail, because they all clearly see the same thing after seeing you in action over time.  Its *not* normal to be doing stuff to earn that rep all over the place. And the proof is in the pudding when folks determine this on their own without even knowing the events that occurred at other places.  But when it is pointed out they go "yep thats him to a T".

And tons of links have been provided Mike in how you post, how you have gotten called on it, etc.  You are trying to rely on the fact that the links are not of you within one post saying ridiculous stuff that a kid might say like "Xbox sux, you suck".  One must read a few posts to see your very discernable pattern.

They wanted to make some serious money!
That's why Microsoft entered the console market.

 

 

And to offer new experiences to the consumers :)

And there was nothing malicious.

My technical perspectives some people were upset about were backed up by 3rd party sources.

I have absolutely no financial stake in anything Amiga nor Sony PS3. Yet you provide no evidence to the contrary, yet continue to make allegations.

My wall is starting to fill with links of it now.


I doubt this will change something. It should be easy to find some XBox 360 fans to request Sony be boycotted or in the past have a few vivid MorphOS fans support the idea of AmigaOS4.x to be discontinued in favour of MorphOS. That's in the nature of fanboys.
