Gazelle launches at What.cd

[ashford]

Awesome for me. But remember, theyre still testing it, so be patient and report any bugs/suggestions to help them out.

Agreed. It takes really a lot of time and work to develop something like Gazelle, especially if - like in this case - the TBsource is outaged.

they did a really good job of it

I agree, but I like the old TB source feel better

how to invite a person ? this new style is confusing me !! when i click Invite, i see no option to invite a user, just my invitee list...arrghh

What bothers me the most about gazelle, is the fact that there are no genres in the browse category! It's impossible to find new music of your favourite genre! Tags are good, don't get me wrong, but they are subjective! For example, one guy had tagged his Santana upload as Santana music!!! WTF!

[Raban]

ya the lack of categories is kinda strange ... also i guess something is messed up with the upload system right now cause all day there's been a huge lag where it seems like nothing new is coming through ...

like for instance right now it says the last new thing was added 1 hour ago ?? before gazelle new stuff showed up about once a minute . .. . .

gazelle for me so far:

- demotion from poweruser to the lowest user class
- can not vote on requests anymore
- can not view the log anymore
- can not perform advanced search anymore
- can not view the top ten anymore
- can not make requests
- can not access special forums anymore.

i'm a member at what almost from day one. can somebody please tell me what my benefits from gazelle are?

i think its still in rough stages right now ... the real benefits probably won't be felt/seen for several weeks.


i just uploaded a torrent and it went through and says ok you must now download the new torrent to seed it... i'm like ok click on the link... woops there's nothing there can't download it... guess i have to wait an hour for it to be processed ?? sweet . .. .

[aaatoel]

As you guys say, the problems are many... As for the user classes, they have changed significantly! You have to upload your own stuff to achieve higher user classes!

Seeing as all old torrents have a tag that equals the previous category they were in, the search feature is still useable. There is great potential in tags but it will take some time until the system will become useful.
