Those transfer people seem to know their shit apparently. Thumbs up.

So basically every broken image uploaded by you in the past decade has no error info? \o/

Groepaz: Yes. Exactly that. Being an asshole is exactly my main objective. But no. I was unaware that IECHost didn't save the errors in the file (ofc the read log is saved). Will transfer these ones with WarpCopy now, or check the latest updated client for IECHost - it might have been fixed. Thanx for the heads up.

If you are adding disks that had errors during transfer - why in heavens name do you add them as images that don't have errorinfo in them? To make it as hard as possible for anyone to possibly find out what the broken blocks are? *shrug*

I don’t know why you always nag and complain about whatever I do. But No, I always used Warpcopy up til now. Will ofc retransfer the latest ones here. Latest client for IECHost might have error info, Otherwise it’s back to warpcopy.

Thinking of it I am tired of taking your shit anymore, gpz. Don’t bother to keep on throwing your shit my way, I won’t see it anyhows. You are the first one I put on my ignore list, btw. Cheers. Time for you to find someone else to bully.

@chatGPZ Maybe you could focus your attention on coding a demo. Do something positive with the time you allocate to the C64

Will you then delete your converters and make graphics that doesn't suck again?

Why not flux images? That's as low-level as you can get, with the highest chances of repairing errors after transfer.

Update: IECHost 3.8.12 has error info included in the d64, as it should be. Nothing to see here. Will retransfer the ones that needs it. Carry on.

Krill: Kryoflux is nice, sure, especially for protected disks etc, but I usually only make .nib/g64 files (ZoomFloppy 1571 serial nibbling) for originals. For standard formatted swapdisks it's enough with d64's (with error info included ofc) in most cases. In a few cases I have made nibbled disk images. Same goes for The Transfer Team and more peeps dealing with this daily.

Oh, and MdZ and Mason do a second run with most of the flops I work with as well.

The point was to make flux images (Kryoflux or Greaseweazle or something else no matter) only once you cannot transfer a disk without errors.
Then that image (or images) can be processed... sometime later... to produce and perhaps test the likeliest version of what could have been the error-free original.

That would be the one sane way to do this, indeed.

..whereas deleting multiple events where 30+ sceners attended is not.

Anyhow guys, chill and dine. Life is too short.

It certainly is. Unless nothing was released on those events of course - in that case adding them was against the rules in the first place :)

Not if they were mentioned in e.g. scrolltexts or articles in Vandalism News. But I am not the one in charge :D

How is that relevant for "event had an actual release" (or doesn't, hence delete-worthy)?

No. What counts are releases.

Maybe you should nail a steak to your knee and spin it until you receive radio cluestick?
