Many active demosceners<\/abbr> know XXX<\/strong> as a tireless organiser, being a driving force behind the Haujobb<\/em> demogroup and the Evoke<\/em> demoparty<\/abbr>, and a well-known party animal. Far less known, however, are his roots in the late 1980s and early 1990s Amiga<\/abbr> scene<\/abbr> as a member<\/a> of the group Agnostic Front<\/em>. A while ago, XXX provided us with some scene stickers from the time period, which we are finally able to put online. Of particular interest is the “Business Rules… and Friendship sucks” sticker from 1993. This sticker, a poignant commentary on the elitist thinking and commercialization of the early 1990s Amiga scene, was produced by the “Friendship Movement”, an alliance of Amiga groups initiated by the group Spreadpoint<\/em>. The background of this initiative can be read<\/a> in an article in the Amiga diskmag Stolen Data<\/em> from 1990.<\/p>\n
