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. |

| Im on a cable internet connection throught Optus in Australia. I am on a small 3 computer LAN as a client using Cygate as the client/host software. I connect to the net throught the Host computer. *The telnet check works out (Gnutella okay) *We have no firewall * I can surf the internet no worries * I can connect and search throught the GNutella network BUT.... When I click on downloads.. any download, and Ive tried plenty, the download will accept me only half the time, and the few times it does accept, downloads just sit at 0k/s. Ive checked the statistics, and as an example its said for 7000 messages, ive had 5500 routing errors and 5600 dropped messages. Any advice would be cool!! Thanks |

| I've been able to download files but it looks like no one is able to upload from me (limewire pro 2.3.2). At least it looks that way from the upload monitor. I've also had a few chat sessions where people have been complaining that they can't download from me. I've checked my firewall settings and I've done the force IP thing. So my upload problem could be your download problem. Keep trying to download and keep bugging the developers in case there is some problem with the limewire software. |

| I've got a different 0K issue. A lot of my downloads go fine for a while, then suddenly drop to 0 KB/s and stay there forever. The status is "Downloading from x.x.x.x" and no matter how long I wait it never goes into "requery sent" or "connecting to" mode. This clogs up my upload slots and bums me out, because Limewire never retries those files and the only thing to do is kill the download and hope you get lucky with the resume working. This is tough to do when you have already downloaded most of a file, given Limewire's iffy record of resuming. Is it known what causes this to happen? Can LW add some kind of defibrillator button to zap dead downloads back to life? |

| Some users seem to set their upload-speed to zero in their config-files. I've just recently found a case of a user using LimeWire 2.3.1 who LimeWire connected to without a single byte of data being transferred. |

| Interesting, but I don't think that's the case here- the download goes part of the way through before stalling. I've got files that stalled at 80+ percent of complete...which makes it more frustrating. Is the setting upload speed to 0 a freeloading thing? Are they still downloading at normal speeds? |
