Just a reminder:
This section of the EAB was started so that a beginner could ask any question that they wanted without fear of being flamed. That includes asking questions that are answered in the FAQs. That includes asking for 'ROMs' instead of 'ADFs'. The section is separated from the rest of the board so that anyone can ignore them if they don't want to read them and someone with more patience can answer the question. Anything even remotely unfriendly that is posted here is in the wrong section! |

But also bear in mind that even here, the files are still ADF's and not ROM's. Even RCK pointed that out to the 'newbie'. Everything else has been discussion and analysis of the situation. Once it was made clear that being defensive over that correction wasn't neccesary, everything else has been the usual expansion of the original topic.
Also, newbies have to be reminded to cool off, as well. That, as well as the response may appear to be remotely unfriendly, even though it isn't really. |

All I'm saying is that it's a good idea to be extra careful about what we say here, because what seems to be a reasonable response from some who has heard the same newbie question a hundred times, can easily seen to be unfriendly to someone who is new to the scene.
Being friendly doesn't mean that we can't point out the difference between ROMs and ADFs. |
