Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client (* this is important for helping solve problems) ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you. To aid helpers in solving download/upload problems, LimeWire and Frostwire users must specify whether they are downloading a torrent file or a file from the Gnutella network.
Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)


Moderators

There are senior members on the forums who serve as Moderators. These volunteers keep the board organized and moving.
Moderators are authorized to: (in order of increasing severity)
Move posts to the correct forums. Many times, members post in the wrong forum. These off-topic posts may impede the normal operation of the forum.
Edit posts. Moderators will edit posts that are offensive or break any of the House Rules.
Delete posts. Posts that cannot be edited to comply with the House Rules will be deleted.
Restrict members. This is one of the last punishments before a member is banned. Restrictions may include placing all new posts in a moderation queue or temporarily banning the offender.
Ban members. The most severe punishment. Three or more moderators or administrators must agree to the ban for this action to occur. Banning is reserved for very severe offenses and members who, after many warnings, fail to comply with the House Rules. Banning is permanent. Bans cannot be removed by the moderators and probably won't be removed by the administration.


The Rules

1. Warez, copyright violation, or any other illegal activity may NOT be linked or expressed in any form. Topics discussing techniques for violating these laws and messages containing locations of web sites or other servers hosting illegal content will be silently removed. Multiple offenses will result in consequences. File names are not required to discuss your issues. If filenames are copyright then do not belong on these forums & will be edited out or post removed. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. Commercial advertising is not allowed in any form, including using in signatures.

3. There will be no excessive use of profanity in any forum.

4. There will be no racial, ethnic, or gender based insults, or any other personal attacks.

5. Pictures may be attached to posts and signatures if they are not sexually explicit or offensive. Picture sample attachments in posts must not include copyright infringement.

6. Remember to post in the correct forum. Take your time to look at other threads and see where your post will go. If your post is placed in the wrong forum it will be moved by a moderator. There are specific Gnutella Client sections for LimeWire, Phex, FrostWire, BearShare, Gnucleus, Morpheus, and many more. Please choose the correct section for your problem.

7. If you see a post in the wrong forum or in violation of the House Rules, please contact a moderator via Private Message or the "Report this post to a moderator" link at the bottom of every post. Please do not respond directly to the member - a moderator will do what is required.

8. Any impersonation of a forum member in any mode of communication is strictly prohibited and will result in banning.

9. Multiple copies of the same post will not be tolerated. Post your question, comment, or complaint only once. There is no need to express yourself more than once. Duplicate posts will be deleted with little or no warning. Keep in mind a forum censor may temporarily automatically hold up your post, if you do not see your post, do not post again, it will be dealt with by a moderator within a reasonable time. Authors of multiple copies of same post may be dealt with by moderators within their discrete judgment at the time which may result in warning or infraction points, depending on severity as adjudged by the moderators online.

10. Posts should have descriptive topics. Vague titles such as "Help!", "Why?", and the like may not get enough attention to the contents.

11. Do not divulge anyone's personal information in the forum, not even your own. This includes e-mail addresses, IP addresses, age, house address, and any other distinguishing information. Don´t use eMail addresses in your nick. Reiterating, do not post your email address in posts. This is for your own protection.

12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit or used for commercial advertising. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. Failure to show that you have read the forum rules may result in forum rules breach infraction points or warnings awarded against you which may later total up to an automatic temporary or permanent ban. Supplying system details is a prerequisite in most cases, particularly with connection or installation issues.

Violation of any of these rules will bring consequences, determined on a case-by-case basis.


Thank You! Thanks for taking the time to read these forum guidelines. We hope your visit is helpful and mutually beneficial to the entire community.

Clyde, so you want to come into Our forums to promote Ares ?? I don't think you want us to join your forum and do the same do you? Not a good idea to come in our house and Bash Limewire.

See Clydes 1st post here.

first off ares ultra is not a real version of ares. secondly you should never register to or pay anything to download something, never ever pay or pass out personal info.

i am the owner of AresForum if you would like to click the link funeral provided in post #5 for further help please feel free to. thank's by the way funeral.
if you would like to get ares running don't be afraid to come on over and ask for help. now to help you here.

if you have sp2 installed and you are using a 64 bit proccessor you should download the sp2 patch we have in our download's section. if you are running thru a router, or a dsl user i would try port forwarding ares transfer port.
as for playa's post,
you will need to totaly remove ares thru the add/remove also you will need to delete ares reg key's. start/run/regedit from there go to hkey_current user
then onto software find ares and delete the ares folder and sub folder's
from there check c drive make sure there is no ares folder left behind and then reboot computer. then download a real copy from SourceForge.net: Files
that is the entire list of every version there was ever made. i personally would recomend stying within the 190 version say 193 up to 199.
those seem to be the better of all the previous and later version's, 194 and up support torrent's. once you install the fresh copy then you should recieve another popup about letting it access the net from zone, go ahead and allow it. that should solve your issue's playa.
other's as i said feel free stop on over at AresForum, link's in post #5 for indepth personal help with ares, we also answer computer problem's, we are not just an ares forum but a total computer support forum.

thank's again for the linkage funeral, i will add this site to my link's list.

thank you,
AresForum

doesn't bother me if you join my forum and promote limewire.
your more than welcome to. i don't use ares anymore nor do i use limewire. i use torrent's.
i'm not looking for a reaction i am telling the person who asked and other's who come looking for help how to resolve thier issue. if your not inteligent enough to gleem that by my post, well i don't know what to tell you.
if you come to my site and ask for a limewire section i have no problem setting the topic up. although i am a computer support site dealing with hardware,software,and networking issue's. i have a p2p section where any user can post about any p2p network they wish.
it's all software and networking.
i just like to keep it seperate from other software due to the fact p2p is the meain thing ppl seek when uisng the internet. feel free to come over and request a limewire section as i said before. doesn't bother me.

sorry if you thought by posting your comment was going to get a rise out of me, but it doesn't, if you don't want intelligent ppl helping other's here then so be it.

just so you do know ares is 10 times better than limewire anyday it's been proven time and time again. same file's and with better speed's. most ares user's were at one time limewire user's and ares has over 1 million user's on it's own private network. also ares you may be lucky to get 2 bad file's in a year. i think that speak's for itself.

i also spoke the truth when i said 2 member's here are going to gang up on one member for asking about pirating a software when if your downloading music it is the same exact thing. so no need to point finger's.

arcticle on how limewire folded and ares did not Slyck News - FrostWire Beta Released i think if you read the article's on both limewire and ares also read the comment's ares dominates. i am merely offering a solution to a problem with limewire. if you look, this is a gnutella forum not a limewire forum, limewire is just used on the gnutella network like many more client's.

i have to agree with the quote below wich was posted at BetaNews | RIAA Sues LimeWire Over Piracy
and you say i'm promoting ares no it's pretty clear limewire is a scam.

I have to admit I am glad the RIAA is going after Limewire. The RIAA is correct in this instance, and the Supremes upheld this in the Grokster case. Any company making money off licensed music IS illegal.

I'd rather them perform these lawsuits than against individuals (there is NO personal gain from an individual trading music, and there is NO money made by an individual). Limewire, Grokster, BearShare, etc. are companies that should be put out of business. They are making money off open source software, and from individuals that want to share their music collections (again, the individuals that DO NOT make money).

These folks are a bigger scam than the RIAA - rest in peace bozos!

Clyde, If you knew what you were talking about, someone might care. Sounds like you don't have a clue. Limewire Basic is FREE. If someone cares to Donate a small amount of money for Pro then thats there perogitive. Why don't you go back to your forum. We all know why your here because no one goes to your forum. Also you are trying to SCAM people out of money at your site saying you can help them with there computer problems, Please. We do that here for absolutely nothing. Get a life Loser.

i'm sorry that your feeling's are hurt by truth's and fact's. to bad limewire is scam. my forum is free newly opened for 3 month's, and i only charge when a remote assist is asked for, wich is way cheaper than paying geeksquad for the same customer care for a remote assist. had you read i even state make sure you want to remote assist before paying for it.
maybe if you faced what the fact's are, instead of propaganda spread thru limewire's developer's.
it's plane to see they will give you a half azzed coded version for free but if you want a fully working copy it's gonna cost up to 30 buck's.
the code's free, i don't see frostwire charging for the same coded applcation that is the exact same copy of limewirepro but it's free. grow up there are other alternative's for p2p client's if your feeling so scared that i may sway someone from using then pass the pro version out free. it doesn't cost anyone any monies out of their pocket to work on the source code for limewire all it cost is time. might as well tell everyone it's gonna cost to join the forum for further development and modification's. sound's stupid doesn't it? it does just like someone getting on someone elses back for reccommending another p2p client that doesn't come with a high price to use, and no virus's. like i said i don't use ares. so really don't care how you feel about ares, but i know in test's i have ran for 3 year's now. ares is the p2p client someone should use if they want file without virus's and at fast speed's. take's me twice the amount of time to download from limewire than same file from ares. it's fact plain and simple. as i said go read all the p2p talk no one has anything good to say about limewire.


Slyck.com: Could you justify LimeWire's wealth at the expense of free file-sharing, especially considering the comparatively limited number of "Pro" purchases used to access authorized content?

LimeWire: LimeWire's core business is selling software. We distribute a free version of our peer-to-peer file sharing software, and offer users the opportunity to purchase an upgraded version with more features, better performance, and customer support.

We're profitable and, most importantly, this has enabled us to continue our professional software development. As well, it allows us to put up the legal defense that we, our users, and peer-to-peer deserve.

help them pay, no the user's are paying for thier defense, when the riaa sue's an individual is limewire gonna pay their cost's? answer's no and you can count on that. limewire takes [U****** soruce code[/U]. compiles it with free software, ads flash banner's to make *******/U] and limits the connections to 8 so you'll [U***** the pro version in turn for 30 dollars they remove flash ads and allow 10 connection's.
Slyck News - LimeWire Interview
so you know, limewire will soon keep all user's from downloading copyrited file's. user's will have a choice of itunes, or any other service that sell's files or they can pay limewire's new store they plan to open in the fall. if they don't crumble under the suite.
so you tell me who's out to make a dollar at a user's expense. my forum is free and i or someone will answer any and all question's to get your computer in working properly again. if you don't want to use forum or do it yourself then yes i have a right to charge for sitting down and spending.

incase you missed it. limewire is being sued for selling a client that offer's pirated file's and that's absolutely free. so why should a user pay for a removing, and editing a couple line's of code? they shouldn't. it's fact limewire is the scam. sorry if you don't enjoy me making user's aware of what is really happening and suggest they should use another client.
incase you forgot it's a client not the gnutella network.

actualy you should look at yourself, you want people to buy pro yet you don't care if they steal an artist's work. it's ok as long as your not stealing from limewire. so far that's all you've said to fight the truth and fact's,

name calling and twisting thing's about me and the services i offer have done nothing but prove that you can not argue with logic and fact's so one resort's to tantrum's and name calling. gee i hope someone don't need customer care, cause if they got you on the line and they told you there copy has a bug in it, you'd fly off the handle calling them a liar and ask for more money.
