does anyone else think that waffles is degrading?

[robotpirate]

i wouldn't say degrading, but also not upgrading neither.

Even if I'm not a member of waffles yet, I have to agree with Grind$oFine about what.cd. Until recently, the trackers I used were libble and indietorrents, but now that I discovered what.cd, I'm really impressed.

Their new codebase is something really great in my opinion and just shows how what.cd stands from the others. Until now, I was getting a little bored at all the trackers, with identical layout and features taken from a codebase that is now 4 years old. What.cd brings some freshness

I got into Waffles first and although What is nice, I prefer to use Waffles because What is hosted in the US and I trust the Waffles staff with my security more. Although, Gazelle is nice looking. Honestly I don't use either site as much as other trackers, since I have plenty to listen to from Elektronik.

i agree that waffles is more reliable. whatcd lets almost anyone in, and i've run into alot of mislabelled torrents that were shite quality or missing tracks. with waffles i get what i expect

Are you sure about that? A traceroute shows me that both hops before the what.cd server are in Germany ... and an overseas connection is never done in one single hop.

Waffles has encrypted sessions which is an awesome bonus. However, I think what.cd looks better, has files I did not find at waffles, and has nice functionality and organization with Gazelle. The freeleech picks at what.cd definitely help out with ratio too.

I like waffles and use both the site and the forums every day and in my opinion it is far from dead. there are many people who post their everyday!
anyway waffles is only slowly letting people in so that it will have a better user base!

people said this about what! 4 months ago! give it some time.
I do think the 25 gig upload to be a power user is a little much.

Waffles still works for me and happy with it.
