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.

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.

 Any way to hear a song before its downloaded? Hi, as you can see, I'm new here. I pretty much figured it out (for the most part) but I noticed that on most of the songs I have downloaded, the endings were missing, or they would cut off in the middle of the song. Is there a way to hear the song prior to downloading it? I dont know if the problem is on my end or where I'm getting the songs from. As I have said, total newbie here. Would appreciate any help. Thanks

| me too i have noticed a very much songs with no ending but there is no way on earth that you can hear that song before you download it and sometimes i even get a song that only hear it from left side or only the right side of my headphones.

| The preview button will often allow you to see/hear the bits of the video/music downloaded so far. However, over time we learn to identify and avoid downloading a bunch of corrupt and incomplete fakes. Often the spammers are on T3's, and the files are the first to show in many results. The Preview button will not work on those files, since the contents are not really reliable. Apparently many of the files on the network by Kazaa users were as you described--the middle of the file was garbage. Since many Kazaa users have switched to the gnutella network (LimeWire uses gnutella), we should be seeing more garbage being shared. You can also use the Bitzi lookup (right click a search result to get at the Bitzi option) to see if anyone has reported that file before you download it. |

| Thanks very much, both of you, for your responses. Live and learn I guess. Eventually I'll get the hang of it. I'm never sure where its best to download from. I have a cable modem, so I tend to lean toward the T3 or cable. Unfortunately, I dont know what I'm downloading till the song is finished.
