Fixes and additions, call for Release Mods

Posted: Sun Aug 01, 2004 11:22 pm

There are numerous overdue fixes, the first main visible one being that torrent upload in the Releases is now working. In addition to just working again, there's also a new ability for you to add torrents already in isoHunt's index, to create a "link" to the torrents in the Releases. So, when you upload a torrent you downloaded from here, instead of seeing a "duplicate torrent" error, you will be informed that a new link between the torrent you uploaded and the release you uploaded to is created.

Other fixes are behind the scenes, and problems with load balancing between the 2 servers should now be smoothed out.

In the sad demise of ShareReactor (which inspired isoHunt's releases system), I will continue to add functionality to isoHunt's releases as demand arises, and my time permits. And firstly, in improving the quality of the releases, Release Moderators will be appointed on an individual basis, which can edit and delete the Releases.

Release mods will get the same priviledges as forum mods, such as access to private forums and lifetime "isoHunt Supporter" status. If you are interested in help building the best quality P2P releases database, please reply below.

What would a release mod have to do?

Housekeeping tasks, like taking out spam and organizing the releases and torrents uploaded in them.

Iâ€™d be interested in becoming a release mod. I have about 2 years experience as a site admin on a hardware modification site. Feel free to e-mail me for more info about my experience.
