LJHalfbreed:
Nailz- I think it's just a matter of personal preference and standards.

Some people have no problem with pop-ups/pop-unders (advertising).

Some people have no problems with 'voting' for sites before gaining access.

Some people have no problems with installing adware or other similar programs along with another program.

Some people have no problems with limited functionality or limited lifespan.

Some people have no problems with downloading a program and never compensating the individual(s) that created it.


The point is, you value GamEx enough to where a nagscreen/donation request is a non-issue. I (and others) for *whatever* reason feel that GamEx doesn't offer enough to us to justify a nagscreen.

Again, I'm not knocking GamEx for having a nagscreen, I'm stating that GamEx doesn't offer enough to *me* to 'qualify' for the need for a nagscreen or any other reason to donate/buy/etc.

I'm also pointing out that there should be plenty of other people that would still find GamEx quite useful/perfect/etc. However, I'm pretty sure I've tried every front end I've come across, and right now, GamEx just doesn't offer what I want.

And no, looking at a nag screen doesn't force you to do anything. However, It can be *very* annoying... sort of like any other advert/commercial can be. I just think it's a bit magnified for me in this aspect because I don't feel it justifies a nagscreen, both in features and in how I feel the emulation scene works.

Nailz:
I hear what you're saying, my comments weren't all directed at you, and we can all obviously choose whatever we want. :)

For me, my cab is dedicated, everything is in my startup folder, so I turn on my machine, walk away for a few minutes, come back, and no nag screen, just my FE ready to play me some games...

Brad:
I agree with LJHalfbreed. HE got my point. YOU didn't. I was extremely complimentary about GameEx in my post.

My opinion still stands in that it's vastly more suited at a HTPC "for me" and the nag screen is annoying as hell, particularly when your trying to set everything up.

LJHalfbreed:
