Do you seriously miss Oink for appz? That's lame. I wasn't a member, but I'm pretty sure the music is what made it special. There are so many places with stupid 0day appz that I don't know where to suggest.

What and Waffles improved
the old ways of OinK, wich I only had account for 3 days xD
It seemed to be great, but I can't exacly say I miss it, because it was only a shrt period and What/Waffles came up realy fast with new and gfreat methods.


Anyway, I wish luck to OinK.

i was just a member of oink for a few weeks before it was taken down. from what i saw i don't see why people are missing it? what and waffles are filling the gap 100% from what i can tell.. they will soon have as many torrents each as oink had.. can someone please explain what made oink so special that i missed in the short period of time i were there? :)

what made oink so special was the community. at the time there was no other music site like it. even Trent reznor of NIN said he used it and loved it! sure there was ST music or Vip but both of which were and are really bad.
plus if you wanted flac you could get flac! if you wanted OGG you could get OGG so it was simply one of a kind.

I will say what came from the downfall of oink came two great communities. both the same but at the sometime different and one of a kind! its hard to explain if you were not there to see oink grow to the downfall and to the rebuilding of two great music community!

just enjoy what now is the two best music sites, waffles and what! and ask the members and they will have there own stories of oink and what it meant to them.

theres a big difference between random 0day appz packs and a collection of apps thats grew over years of requests, oink was the best tracker for apps :(

Waffles has done the job for me..

but oink was a legend..

I lost music collection at around the same time OiNK went down.
(My iPod, and computer both crashed at the same time... what are the odds?)


Though, I've found a good chunck of what I was missing, I'm still missing a good 25GB I had originally that I can't find on Waffles, What, STMusic, Libble, FunkyTorrents, IndieTorrents, KrayTracker, TranceTraffic, Elektronik, Twee, MyBloodyTracker, Newsgroups, SoulSeek, nor Rapishare links forums.
But, I had originally downloaded it from OiNK.

You can definitely say I still miss OiNK.
I'm one of the few people that still have an OiNK userbar,
and I don't see myself letting go of that for a while.
I'll stop using it when the combination of all those resources I listed surpasses the quality of OiNK.

Oink was the best

yes, as a member there for a while it was the best community i have ever found...

Simply the best music and etc tracker ever... R.I.P Super Mega Oink ;)

04-27-2008, 07:28 PM
waffles/what and Kraytracker are good, but it's definately a lot harder or even impossible to find some music now that Oink's gone..

i miss my buffer on Oink, but besides that i don't really miss it anymore

pimfram
04-27-2008, 07:37 PM
Oink was much better than waffles/what are. The music was amazing but the community was even better.

Just miss my buffer there like T.S.O.L

04-27-2008, 08:36 PM
Nah, pink is :ghey:

Waffles is cool enough to use a bit (except the :ghey: avatars), but I need a specialized tracker for my house/trance/techno tastes.

I still miss OiNK so bad it was simply the greatest music site you could possibly imagine. I'm registered at both what & waffles but am a what.cd man through and through I think it has the best community by far (Anyone remember the what.cd Drawball Project ? lol).

The only bad thing about what.cd is the removed the remember OiNK theme when they switched to the Gazelle code base, C'mon guy's don't forget where you've come from and you won't lose sight of where you are heading.

Never forget 23/10/07...

p.s give us back our stylesheet...

oink was definatly cream of the crop for music trackers. I still miss it to this day, but a while after they closed the site down, i was invited to what and waffles that keep me going, but ill always remember oink for its variety, speeds and excellent community.

May Oink R.I.P

maybe give waffles/what some time...

Didn't know bout Oink until it was gone. I'm sure I would have missed it though :)

wasn't part of oink but I could imagine the feeling if they closed waffles down..oh id feel so alone

I gotta say I miss oink not only for the music but defiantly for the apps as well. Any app I could think of.I could search on oink and find what I needed.

04-28-2008, 04:43 AM
Oink was great, but I prefer Waffles.

Annoyed
04-28-2008, 07:04 AM
Meh. Between BTmusic, Waffles, and What, I find everything I need music wise.

But yeah, I can say that I miss it. It was nice to find all the music that I need under one site. But to miss OiNK just for appz...is a little strange.

The community was nice, other than that I've found replacements in RS and some 0day trackers. I don't care about lossless anyway.

04-28-2008, 11:07 AM
Now tat am on waffles...It's like a new oink to me...n will b better as well:P

the return of demonoid make me forget oink

04-29-2008, 04:24 PM
yeah, the return of Demonoid, plus using What compensates for oink

Oink seems to have be replaced quite well.

usersec
04-29-2008, 05:50 PM
no, I dont miss it because is waffles is slowly but surely replaceing oink, what can not be quite said for what.cd which sucks even more after that antelope came :lol

If i'll say that I'm not missing it would be somewhat of a lie; luckily, however, there are handful of resourceful and sedulous people out there that are willing to provide us with some wonderful alternatives, such as Waffles, What, STMusic and more. With trackers like these, OiNK's void isn't that big and aching as it used to be, and I'm perfectly content with the alternatives offered nowadays.

Yea... But with Waffle, BTmusic, and Pro Audio Torrents around i'm not hurting as much as before.

Miss the speed. Miss the obscure stuff. Miss the thing that my every upload will be snatched,quickly. Or,shortly-miss the huge userbase that it had. Waffles and what are decent,but having 40 000 members compared to oinks' 200 000 makes a world of difference.

i can't really say i miss oink, but i got into oink near the end of it so maybe i am not the best person to answer this question, anyway i have waffles now and i am very pleased with it, great content and a friendly community :happy:

I also think Waffles is great

I was a very active member at Oink for almost 3 years prior to the shutdown, so I was severely disappointed when it went down. However, though I still mourn for it, the "void" has been filled by Waffles and What (I prefer Waffles personally).

I missed it some weeks after they were offline.Today I have other sources and can living without oink but it was one of the best music tracker...

Definitely wish it was still here. Brilliant source for music which hasn't been fully replaced in my opinion.
