[CU_AMiGA]

Hello

I was on my usual downloading rounds on Aminet, etc. And decided to go on the AmiGNUBoy website (as i was interested, yet could get the emulator to run). I only have to turn me back for a little while, and all the rats and scum come out of the woodwork, and before you know it, you are swarmed with the {bleep}. I went onto the forums, and... and.. i can't bare to say this:

CU_AMiGA Faker

Now, as many of my adoring fans know, i recenly got back in the Amiga scene and have a fledged A1200 running again. But, as you can tell by the tone of my voice, i am not 100% happy. I went onto these forums, innocently looking for help, and i get some idiot trying impersonate CU_AMiGA. Now i don't know who this idiot is, but let me tell you this:

There is only one CU_AMiGA and you're looking at him right here. So if you're looking for me, then i am not a hard person to find. I am on these boards nearly everyday, and if you wan't me, you just come and get me.

Now i am going to go on these boards, not only to ask the question i wanted (how do i get GNUBoy running), but i am also going to be breathing down the neck of this so called "CU_AMiGA", so you'd better watch out.

Regards,

How do we know he isn't the genuine article and you are the fake?

Sorry, Doug, you whole life is just a dream...

Er...so how come you posted under the same account saying that that account isn't you? You guessed the faker's password or something? And er....what makes you think that your handle is unique? I've stumbled across lots of odins (granted, that might be a more known name...but still).

He's posted as a guest - he never registered or logged in. Just like signing annonymous on ann, but you can choose a name to post under.

Well, there's only one person that comes to mind, motivated enough to ruin CU_AMiGA's reputation.

I'd suspect something along the likes of jonopike or sumner7 though. Teenagers have this interesting feature of liking to piss off people they know :-).

Hum,
cunningly he/she has put an underscore in the name (probably to remember the posts that he/she/it made) :-)

CU_AMiGA =/= CU AMiGA

My dear, one of us needs bifocals, because I see underscores in both names.
I would rather it was me, as bifocals would not suit your beautiful visage at all.

@ Gadget

Don't you mean "put it in a sock" ? :-P

@X-Ray

I don't know about bifocals, but I don't think glasses make a women unattractive. I happen to have the pleasure of knowing one who is extravagantly attractive, both with and without her specs :-)

(and just as significantly, with and without mine!)

@Gadget

Oh dear!

Or to put it another way:

Aww! Put it in a sock will ya!

The choice is yours.

You just know The Sock is going to become some sort of mascot...
