OlafS has launched new Amiga forum for all Amiga users. It includes gallery, News, download, calendar, knowledge-base, links and much more like "liken" of news and posts, notifications and so on. It is open for all platforms.

Everyone is welcome to join at [url=http://www.amigaforum.de[/url].

I have given up once the forum required that my password must contain uppercase letters and digits. I won't register there until these nonsense requirements are removed.

Oh come on, "Admin1" is so easy to remember :)

Or your first name and telephone number!

You are missing the point. The password should be easy to remember and hard to attack. Requiring capitals and digits makes it harder to remember and, as user tends to use "Admin1", "qwerty123" and similar things, easier to attack. Exactly the opposite. Personally I use just whole phrases as passwords, which are very hard to attack both with bruteforce (as they are long) and dictionary attack (as each word in a sentence multiplies number of combinations by the size of the dictionary). For example "morphosniejesttakimzlymsystememjakmoglobysiewydawac" is very easy to remember (for Poles, that is), but very hard to guess/crack. BTW, no it is not one of my passwords, just an example.

BTW requirement for digits and capiitals has been removed already by the forum admin.

It's priceless to see something like that ;) Being serious: I won't signup until this forum won't have some custom design. I'm just little mad about web designing.

Missing a nice favicon imo. :)

I am not a gfx artist so cant help it :)

eh.. not worth the time to join another Amiga forum. Not enough news goin on and eventually it shows up on either AO or MZ.

I don't see this topic on either AO or MZ though, unless you dig quite deep:

oh..my bad. Seems like a worthless topic anyway. I personally dont care what AI does with the Amiga name. AI and the Amiga name post Commodore, is dead to me.

@TheMagicM

ahh...I remember when you did "care" to the point of putting out quite an effort. But sure, I understand how this stuff can get to you after 10 or 15 years. Heh.

Yep. Now I don't give a shit about Amiga stuff. This is a hobby that moved behind other more interesting hobbies.
