So if your interesting in anything nintendo you should check it out

[quote comment="356035"]1. no comments
2. no categories (icons are the best way to browse quickly)
3. required 50mb+ upload tax for any requests
4. did i mention NO COMMENTS?
5. no report button
6. did i mention no categories? the browse page is just an en entire page of huge + signs and very tiny artist/album text.

they shot themselves in the foot by taking away these basic functions of a bit torrent tracker.

gazelle isn’t open source, it was just going to be free to download. i’m betting its sloppy code written by a 17 year old kid for a few hours every weekend.[/quote]

1. Check again
2. If by categories you mean Music, Apps, E-Books, etc., check again. If you mean genres, they were replaced by tags, which allows multiple genres to be selected. This eliminates the hassle of trying to decide if a torrent is Trance/Dance/Electronic/etc.
3. I don’t make requests much, but explain how this *wouldn’t* help get your request filled faster. If a request filler has a rare album that is only 120MB when ripped, it’s not much of an incentive without a bounty.
4. Did I mention CHECK AGAIN?
5. In no way could it be that “RP” button that links to reports.php
6. See #3.

To those all asking for invites: I have 8 available. No, you can not have any. In addition, invite trading gets you banned, so don’t bother saying “I have xxx if you give me a What invite”. Those who want invites can try their luck at #what.cd-invites on irc.what.cd. Be prepared to take an interview where you will be asked various questions about music, transcodes, etc.

what.cd is a terrible community. The mods/staff are jerks and there is little to no room for open discussion. It’s also as others have noted painfully pretentious in a way that makes pitchforkmedia seem like your local top 40 radio station. I realize people beg and hunt for invites but I assure anyone that it’s simply not worth it.

And guys, don’t be mad just cause your shite attitudes prevent you from getting an invite to a community-based private tracker. Just realize that we don’t want you there. ;)[/quote]

Im a member at What.cd, with a decent ratio and 3 invites to give away, but lets be real… What.cd and Gazelle really suck hardcore now. Gazelle is very counter-intuitive to navigate through, its painfully obvious that whoever designed it is simply some teenage coder and not a real designer.

absolutely untrue

So, let’s see here. You don’t even know how many gigs it takes to get to PU, but yet you know that the search is gonna change in a month?

Sound like bullshit to me.

Sour grapes, perhaps?[/quote]

Correction, i was mistaken about 20 gigs upload, i checked the FAQ and its actually 25 gigs uploaded!
Anyways my post still stands as truth, advanced search is only available to power users and its planned like that all along, but they temporarily changed that to calm down the users who were angry… but mark my words, theyre reverting back to power users only next month.

You need to upload 20gb and become a power user to use this feature. Currenly theyre allowing anyone to use advanced search to calm everyone down, but theyre gonna change it back in a month. Gazelle and What.cd suck hardcore![/quote]

Umm, no they’re not?

Ya, cause it’s real hard to go into advanced search and pick “lossless” for bitrate.

Sometimes this site does more damage than good to torrenting.

With what specs may I ask? I don’t think it’s very affordable for many bittorrent trackers. Why not comment on the other things I wrote?

I am staff and confirm this :) Do you think we’d not thought these things through?

Golden rule my ass, sometimes that’s the only way to get a decent ratio when you’re starting out at a new site.[/quote]
Or you could actually contribute something new and useful to the community instead of trying to cheat the system by being slick.

Yes because the server is being hammered with requests which drives up the CPU usage and bandwidth used.[/quote]

awesome

lol, I guess site admins have no access to the data stored in their databases huh.

I didnt enjoy using the site, i had to in essence ‘hold off’ on downloading things jsut to get my ratio up, even then i had to download every single free leech thing they upped and generally ratio whore to have an acceptable ratio because BARELY ANYONE WILL DOWNLOAD ANYTHING THERE.

Do you have something better?[/quote]

Waffles.

I don’t expect gazelle to be released anytime soon, for the sole reason that they aren’t even near cleaning up their code for a stable release.

correction. 16. A9 one of their lead coders is 16
