08.03.17 | get your shit together sputnik [2] |
Satellite
08.03.17 | i don't understand why (other than mx just not giving a shit obv) this has been an issue for the past few years. just remove the feature altogether at this point. |
Jasdevi087
08.03.17 | i don't understand why someone who isn't mx isn't able to alter the site's coding at this point |
Satellite
08.03.17 | yeah, i've wondered that for years. any coder worth their salt should be able to make it so the charts update automatically (sort of like the "new releases" and "best new music" sections). makes no sense. i gave up hope long ago on this site ever entering the 21st century. |

macman76
08.03.17 | you could make your own charts, just sayin |
Satellite
08.03.17 | you should be in charge of charts, mac.
also re-write the faq plz. |

08.03.17 | idc what the userbase of a website i don't use rates their music |

08.03.17 | pretty easy to understand actually since no one but mx has access to the site like that |
Jasdevi087
08.03.17 | yeah, and why don't they, is what i'm asking |
Clegane
08.03.17 | Because the dude who runs the site cares enough to keep the site afloat but not enough to make it not suck. |
Funeralopolis
08.03.17 | Just use rateyourmusic charts, theirs are better anyway. |
ashcrash9
08.03.17 | better question: why hasn't macman compiled the 2017 charts manually at this point? |
Clegane
08.03.17 | rym is ass. stop telling ppl to use that site. |
Storm In A Teacup
08.03.17 | The hound on sputnik? Mr Clegane all you do is bring death around you. Please leave in and take mx with you |
butcherboy
08.03.17 | apparently the unreleased new The National is #1 punk album of the year.. so do the charts really matter all that much? |
Papa Universe
08.03.17 | Converge's two part single is the highest rated output this year...yeah, charts don't matter. |
Storm In A Teacup
08.03.17 | Sputnik will matter as much as it's non-updated charts soon enough if mx doesn't give Mac the site |
theBoneyKing
08.03.17 | Clegane, in terms of community RYM is indeed ass and their reviews are much less professional but for their charts, database, and cataloging it is better than Sputnik in every way. |
owen
08.03.17 | let me take over as lead sputnik developer thanks |
Sevengill
08.03.17 | I'm here like 80% for the community. A single number doesn't tell me much about an album compared to reviews. Gotta know users' tastes, too. |
Prancer
08.04.17 | I don't like how RYM's charts are weighted by number of ratings, so DAMN. being number 1 is really boring and predictable. Plus, I like how Sputnik user averages give a decent indication whether an album is good and worth checking out or not. Everything on RYM might as well have a 3.5 user average. |
Snake.
08.04.17 | isn't OP the same guy who referred to SJWs as rabid lesbian lizards or something along those lines |
trackbytrackreviews
08.04.17 | that sounds like something you'd post snake |
Snake.
08.04.17 | probably but in a positive connotation |

08.04.17 | @SnakeDelilah hahaha what the hell are you talking about |
TheSpaceMan
08.05.17 | @macman 2017 chart sounds like a nice list/project for ya (; |
macman76
08.05.17 | @space, sure, I'll do it for my next blog post |
TheSpaceMan
08.05.17 | awesome, its comforting knowing we have the best mind on the job |
Dedes
08.05.17 | Remember when the site was being suctioned into a Black hole and a group of us made plans to create a new and improved sputnik? |
klap
08.05.17 | bc he's the owner and he does whatever he wants |
Dedes
08.05.17 | I don't think he was justifying it. Besides it's established that mx is a total shithead, were just gonna have to improve this site from now on. |
TheSpaceMan
08.05.17 | we can all start by drinking more water |
Satellite
08.05.17 | he's also the only person who ensures this site's continued existence, all without any personal gain on his part. not saying there aren't a bajillion things that obviously need fixing, but come on man. |
Dedes
08.05.17 | I'm pretty sure sputnik makes a lot in revenue |
Dedes
08.05.17 | There is certainly some personal gain. |
Dedes
08.05.17 | Besides, why not have several people working on the site if he realizes he doesn't have the time? |
Satellite
08.05.17 | according to people who are a lot more informed than you are, any ad revenue he collects goes right back into the site. |
Dedes
08.05.17 | Sorry man, I honestly didn't know that the revenue went back into the site, I had always been told otherwise. |
Satellite
08.05.17 | nbd man. it's obvious that your complaints are based from a place of giving a shit about the site. i do the same thing sometimes. just no need to call the dude who keeps the site running a shithead. sall good. |
superluminals
08.05.17 | Sputnik charts are rather useless anyway |
macman76
08.05.17 | But what about my charts |
Dedes
08.05.17 | I'm glad it got settled there Satty (people call you that, right? Only friends? Am I being weird and personal? Fuck.) Perhaps we can all find ways to help structure the site better-of course adding to the database more is an obvious one, but even adding features. How or what I don't know but still. |

08.05.17 | uh hello mx where did my journal page go wtf |
Ignimbrite
08.05.17 | just checked out Ingurgitating Oblivion
there's this facial expression i made when i first heard the beat switch on Kendrick Lamar's "DNA"
i (involuntarily) maintained that facial expression for the entire first song on this album
holy fuck thank you for this |
Ignimbrite
08.05.17 | it's like EIF-era Ulcerate crossed with Mitochondrion's "Into the Pit of Babel" |
aaronrkc
08.05.17 | See what you need to do is stop hoping for better infrastructure on Sputnik and start bullying people giving prog metal albums good reviews. Way more fulfilling. |
Drifter
08.05.17 | Maybe someone should hack the website and take control
That's how that works right? |
TheSpaceMan
08.05.17 | You hafta first bypass the mainframe |
klap
08.05.17 | Lold at Sputnik making a lot in revenue |
