What's with this new trend by people unsharing files when you only have about 3 files left to get off an album...selfish twats. Like an extra 15 minutes is going to kill them. |

i only liked soulseek 3 years ago. it got shittiest once audiogalaxy closed down. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am going to have to start using my original method of free purchasing...and this way I will once again get the artwork and packaging. |
||||||||

I remember talking to you on soulseek in those days. |
||||||||
|
|

|
|
last nite i woke at 3am, noticed my comp making a loud humming noise and disconeccted and turned it off without even checking slsk transfers. usually i leave it running like a dog all the time though. . . |

soulseek is a victim of it's own success. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
s'pose so. i remember when nir actually hung around and you could talk to the guy. dont know if it's still like that. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
huh explain? cie jiks I don't mean people who turn their comps off or whatever. I haven't got a problem with that and I'm in no rush to get new stuff, it's when people just unshare files mid way through someone downloading from them. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeh, new times |

When AG went down and everyone moved onto Slsk it did suffer as a result, but generally it's been beneficial because I don't exclusively listen to electronic music. When I first went on Soulseek nobody was sharing rock music - at all. It was a pain in the fucking arse. I've had the same thing recently with people unsharing halfway through, these people are idiots. |
||||||||

The only problem I have with it now is the atrocious download speeds I'm getting. Though that probably has more to do with my computer than Soulseek. I also seem be getting slightly less search results compared to yesteryear, but I'm still quite happy with it. It rarely lets me down when I'm on the hunt, and I've had good experiences with the people on there, for the most part. Except the ones that thinks it's funny to queue up 50,000 ROMS simultaneously. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
"free purchasing"... sounds good to me! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes, I've had people queue up 700 megabytes of SNES ROMs from me. The joke is, of course, on them, since I have a shit speed and only allow 1 upload at a time. tee hee. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
aah its a piss off. 50% people=bad 50% people=good soulseek=112%. i had a great passage where i was dwnloading samurai maths beats from "loathsome" while he/she was dloading huge chrome from me we both getting like 18clicks/second and having a chat while it was going on. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
have noticed that i need to run a search for much longer than i used to, in order to get any decent results. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Worst are the people who unshare really rare 500mb+ VSTs when you've nearly finished getting them. I nearly had "The Grand" and the "Trilogy Bass Module" once... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I'm sure they do it just to get a kick...there is no way it is accidental. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i only really get stuff off people i know on there now. but yer it did go down the pan a bit since the audio galaxy closed. the good ole days of two servers and walla to wall fuking electronica and electronica artists |
||||||||
|

/me misses the days of #the slum |

|
|
I can just see it... Some evil fucker (who probably just renamed some gay porn .mpg file to get the large file size) sitting at their PC for days on end, waiting: 5mb to go... CANCELLED. Ha ha! I pissed off a stranger who has no recourse to revenge, I'm such a badass! |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
im quite looking forward to going home so i can use slsk on again so many albums i need :( hoping the new beastie boys will be on there |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||

|
|
soulseek hasn't been working for me lately. i think its because i installed a router. anyone have similiar problems? i probably have to configure the shit to work but i dont really know how lol |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
yeah you probably have to forward the port to get it to work...but I don't know about computers at all. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
forward ports 2234 and 5534 for best results with slsk. i wonder if a new specialised electronica peer2peer will spring forth soon? could it be called "igloo"? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thx |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
slsk is a silly girl, i cant log in, i have all kinda problems with it, i cant share my files cos cant even select a folder, didnt install a router slsk is in its menopause period. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
You guys are so 1337 |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
seriously. i remember back when soulseek was setup as a series of criers on top of hills that would yell out zeros and ones. it was so rad back then. now it's so shit. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
shrug, Soulseek is still free ain't it? So how can anyone complain really? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I am going to have to start using my original method of free purchasing...and this way I will once again get the artwork and packaging. :D hum, anyway, i think the overall quality has gone down a bit since i first used it (about 1.5 years ago) |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i dont think slsk is that bad...of course i've had some problems mentioned here, but so what, big deal..it's still the best place to find stuff... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
ah, yes. soulseek. i used it once. it didn't work. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Yes it did, you got MAX/Msp off me. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i think sharing will bring peace to the world |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
did I? wasn't there some firewall-problem? or am I confused? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Maybe there was... I can't get my firewall to forward ports and it's causing me headaches. I thought you got it though... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I don't think I've ever tried getting a MAX/msp.. I don't even know what that is.. I tried getting "A complex mathematical equation" once, but it didn't work... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I've been banned by two people over half way through downloading today because they don't like any of the files I am sharing. Fucking wankers. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
soulseek has been absolute shit for me in the last 2 weeks. connecting to the server actually causes windows to periodially completely freeze. stopping all internet traffic or a reboot is the only thing that helps then :\ |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
i swear i just saw david the gnome. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
and slsk does = shit now, i have to search and search and search for like an hour just to get like two songs....... |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Slsk is good for sharing your collection with peeps you know. But for random searches it sucks. chatroom user browsing is still intuitive and effective. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Ah yes, that's right. Someone else got MAX/Msp from me. And yeah, I fucking hate when people ban you for no reason. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
when im back on slsk you can all have everything of mine |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
thats wild that people would complain about a free, "idm" centric network like soulseek. i've seen 6 year olds with more integrity. i think its amazing. even with its flaws, theres no room for complaining. is there anything better for what it is? |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
I was complaining about the pratices of people myself, not the service which I appreciate for the time, effort and money that the makers obviously put into it. |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
its like kazaa without porn sites popping up when you search for mpg |
||||||||
|
|
|||||||||
| |||||||||
|
|
Soulseek = the shit! B-) |
