I'm new here and I'm looking for the best Pre-91 shows out there.
The problem is, the only way I can think to do this is to find a show on the tracker, flip over to the Tour Dates section, find out what the quality is and then flip back to the list of shows.
There's got to be a better way.
One suggestion; either requiring a link to the show's page from the Dates section when you upload, or require it to be the first post.
Another suggestion; pull in the recording quality from the table that holds all of the data for each record in the Dates section.
The first request requires manual intervention from the uploader, the second requires a code change by the Admins,
Either one would make a HUGE difference in finding what people are looking for.
What say? Can we do it?
Or, even just having an icon on the board indicating the source of the recording would be a step in the right direction.

Re: Tracker request
So you're saying it's a bad suggestion? Do you have an alternative? Did you ever think that the board doesn't get much traffic because it's not user-friendly? The two top trackers; DaD and TTD both require Source at a minimum. Just knowing whether it's AUD or SB/FM would be a huge improvement.

Re: Tracker request
Thank you for your suggestions.
Firstly you are a Junior Member, then you don't have access to the tracker.
When someone uploads a torrent to the site, he has to give some infos. Category:mp3, lossless, pal, ntsc, proshot,..., link for the show taken from the tour date section, and a description. This is published on a section of the site. There you also download the .torrent file. Being a Junior Member, you can't see the torrent page. Then when you say it's not user friendly, it's not completely relevant because you don't have access to that page.
About the quality in the dates section, forget that. It's incomplete, outdated,... Actually this info will probably be removed in a future version of the site. Everyone can have a different rating of a given bootleg, there are so many bootlegs of a show... Then we think that traders' websites are better places for that.
