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. 2. Spamming and excessive advertising will not be tolerated. 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. 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. 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. 10. Posts should have descriptive subjects. 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. 12. Signatures may be used as long as they are not offensive or sexually explicit. 13. 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. |

 95% dropped output when acting as Ultrapeer Quick question: I'm acting as an Ultrapeer and all of my connections are incoming. my incoming leaf connections are having no problem but I noticed on my incoming Ultrapeer connections I have 95 % dropped output under dropped I/O. The connections stay up with no problem at all but is there any reason for all the dropped output? Tim  |

| hmm weird, if anything it should be the other way round. my ultrapeers have a good balance between I and O and drop between 10 and 30%, depending on vendor, (more recent limewires seem to filter out more). my leaves have some dropped O as limewire (running as ultrapeer) doesn't forward everything to its leaves. are you sure you're not running as a leaf? sometimes limewire automatically reverts to leaf if it doesn't connect to enough hosts after a while. |

| I'm not sure but I think this is what you would see, if somebody became an ultrapeer who * does not share anything and does not have any leafs that share anything OR * does not share anything and is firewalled and became an ultrapeer by forcing it |

| so your limewire ultrapeer would pretty much forward no searches at all to that 'lonely' ultrapeer, since it has no files? makes sense. there's been a bunch of people asking how to force ultrapeer lately... Last edited by osu_uma : June 3rd, 2003 at 07:33 PM. |

| It's not you who isn't sharing anything. It's the others. While some ultrapeers are obviously sharing a couple of thousand files with their leafs (60%+ of all searches are forwarded) others don't seem to share anything at all (only 5% or even less of all searches are forwarded). The number of ultrapeers with leafs that don't share much at all is rather high (>50% - just a guess). While saving you lots of bandwidth it also indicates that there are still far too many freeloaders in the network. |
