According to an old friend of ours, we know nothing, and are unskilled in what we do....

We'll leave you decide the results of this poll.

Feel free to also drop by the above thread and abuse either of us :)

I really donīt know what kind of problems this guys has, but please just try (i know this may be hard) to ignore him. Maybe itīs the only fun he has in his life to tease you. YOU ALL know that you produce quality stuff and alone the fact that you have a lot of "we still work on it because it doesnīt run on Falcon - so no release" stuff on your harddisks, proves that.
I am quite sure you will make *a lot* of people very unhappy if you do take your site down, but just *one* happy. You know who i mean.

So i vote "NO" without hesitation.

I am really looking forward to your new stuff,
Saviour

Just ignore him - why give him the pleasure to get reactions?
Let the software speak for itself  :D

Folks, don't you worry we're not going anywhere.

In fact, we've just shellout out some more hard earned cash so we can make the site better for you all. Not to mention that several hours this last week have been spent improving the back end of it for us to make life much, much easier.

(You might see some site updates from me now, instead of only from Shw/GGN who have been doing all the www-work for the last few months)

As you say there's also the contents of our W(ork)I(n)P(progress) folders which we hope to have release-ready at some point, not to mention our Universal Image Loader (Which we discussed briefly on "the other forum" before we got doomed - some of my recent patches touch on how this works and use similar ideas)

Anyway, I've started delving into both ZipLoad and AndyLoad this week, I hope to have a basic generic replacement for these soon which should open the floodgates for titles using this format (Much the same as working out the format for Vapour's loader did a while back)

Long live Atari! D-Bug forever (With just a hint of Automation) :)

NO WAY!!  Never quit, never die and never, never give in!!  You have brought so much joy and done so much for so many and so long!!

Just because certain people have issues that they can't deal with, that is not your problem.  Please for the sake of my old and decrepit Atari, keep her happy, keep her fed and satisfied!  She is old and weak, I don't think she could take any more losses of good and hard working Atari folks  :'( :'( :'(

This is really pathetic. Black or white. 2 choices: 1 - we are perfect.  2 - we know nothing

I don't see that anyone at atariage asked to shut down site.
But I voted for. Just because this is total stoopid...  :(

Where do we say that? Anway, by your reasoning, is there a 3rd choice? Half-close the site or something?

Well, we can all make an educated guess about who you are. And your friends that voted anonymously, coming from the same I.P. range as you do. Who's pathetic and "total stoopid" then?

No, don't bother answering that. You're acting like a spoilt brat.
