Is it me, or do you find booting a game from disk much more 'romantic' than WHDload

Compared to waiting for cassette tape based games to load, floppy disk was awesome.

@Magnetic and Franko

Add each other to your respective Ignore lists and if that doesn't cut it, use Piru's JS filter. Seriously, I'm sick of reading this ongoing bollocks from the pair of you.

Consider this a moderation request.

Franko,

So don't give me the old "I don't care who started it or who said what" line.

Understand this very clearly:

I really do not give a septic rats rectum who started this stupid feud between the pair of you, you are both guilty of perpetuating it; every time you run into each other it's the same childish tit-for-tat.

Now, play nice or *ignore* each other. I am totally tired of seeing the pair of you thinking that somehow the rules on personal attacks magically don't apply to you because you've each been the victim of it from one another.

Now if you do your moderators job fairly (and even a blind man can see who start this bollocks) then you will have a word with him

My first post was addressed fair and square at both of you. This post is only addressed to you because you chose to challenge what was being asked, but everything I've written in it goes for magnetic as well.

Carry on slating each other like this and you'll both be banned. Can't say fairer than that.

Why floppy disks will still out-cool all that has come since:

Beat that, SSD!

Wow Karlos don't you know anything, just put that cassette player in fast forward while loading a tape.

Yeah, but some of us liked to load a bitstream of data in the same order it was recorded

Loads much faster than a floppy disk unless you have turbo boost on your floppy drive, with my turbo boost I could load a game in about 2 secs flat.

Well, even in the days before adf image mounting tools there was a dosdriver that allowed you to create virtual floppy disks on your hard drive or even in your RAM disk...
