Posted: Thu Sep 02, 2021 4:02 pm
Dear watzatsong.com users,
As may be most of you already know, watzatsong.com has a new owner. I come from the gaming industry with huge communities and I promise to always take a very good care of you all!
I plan a lot of new changes and improvements and would like to share what I have so far. Your feedback and comments will be GREATLY appreciated
- Make sure that the iOS app is working properly and for sure try my best to improve its functionality.
- Port the app to Android as well
- Change the website design with something better looking, but also simple to use.
- Improve the website "post a new sample" experience allowing all popular audio files to upload with bigger sizes. Ignore the special characters in the titles.
- Improve the system that sends conformation emails, forgotten password and other messages. I know it's currently very slow.
- Improve the error messages, which I am sure most of you have seen and made no sense.
- Improve the "Listen" experience by adding a player that can Play, FF and rewind.
- Improve the "Name this Song" by adding more functionality to pull videos/music from Yourtube and other popular services. In the Answer section, under “name this song” users be able to add links to Youtube, Itunes or other music services.
- Improve the email notifications
- Add an option for users to delete their posted songs within 5 minutes after posting if there is no answer already added.
- Add an option to answer your own sample and close it
- Improve the voting functionality when a proposal is posted.
- Fix the Ranking and add find a way to improve so users are more motivated to posts answers
- Improve the internal messaging system
- Implement Rewarding system for the most active members
- Better Spam system
- Report an abuse or spam content
- Limit how many posts some users can send (based on a seniority, contribution factors, etc)
- Improve the Quiz system and add more gamification and fun
- Implement a system that will not allow post duplication
- Notifications on the website (users can choose which notifications to get on the website, and which via e-mail);
- Longer recent activity, and split into sections (e.g. new comments, samples, proposals, follows, etc.);
- Basic HTML in comments (bold, italic, quotation);
- Editing and deleting comments;
- Displaying the date a sample was posted, instead of "xxxx days ago";
- Following/subscribing to users (if a user likes the music certain users post and/or follow, they can subscribe to them; a sort of a personal Recent Activity page would have a section that shows posted and followed samples by people they are subscribed to)
- Option to pay for premium positioning with Paypal
- Improve the mailbox functionality
- Stick the navigation bar at the top of the page
- Add tags to the posts
