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.

Search hits go through that someone elses computer and it responds as if it has that file, but then the file is transferred through. No way to know where the file is originating from, could be three or four computers it's passing through. No way to tell if a node is passing or not, or if pass through is on/off.
Make ultrapeers download and hold popular files for up to 24 hours locally for others to download, this will make popular files more available and faster to download.
Think about features that will prevent someone from DOSing your node to prevent your content from getting shared.
Some governments and "big companies" are trying to use DOS attacks and IP tracing to "censor" and control content on the network. This could also include governments that block freedom information to people who are being oppressed.
Thank you.
Yes, just what we need... a slow as sh*% network, and tons of wasted bandwidth.

There must be better ways of encryption, no? Because, that will never fly.

Use your brain for a second.
Pass through just has to be there, so no one can say the file came from your computer FOR SURE 100%.
That doesn't mean it has to be used every time, but you never know if someone is using or not.
How many times now have I had to say this?
No wonder the RIAA is winning and governments are making you all slaves to their revenue stream.

Well i'm sure the RIAA can shut you down if it comes from your machine, you are responsible for what goes on, on your machine. So, if it comes from your machine, saying it wasn't me wont matter to them. to the RIAA and ISP's it's guilty until proven otherwise not the other way around. and if you chose to use passthrough, then your responsible for what passes through, same as the ISP's have to answer for your actions if challanged by the RIAA/MPAA by sending you a letter warning you to stop allowing copywritten material from coming out of your machine.
Who in their right mind would let others upload through their machine, unless they are out of reach of the long arm of the riaa/mpaa, then it might be a good idea.

Default Moved and why

As this thread does not contain the word Shareaza, even once, and that it is composed of the routine near-flooding on this and other pet subjects of the true initiator, I have given it the 'honor' of it's own exalted place.

No, that's Brad Pitt, actually, but as far as anyone on this board knows... yeah that's me

I might get around to posting a personal photo later, now that you mention it...even though the 50x50 image requirement is too small for a decent pic...

Thanks, smartie

And, apologies for the unavoidable first impressions that suggest... well, actually declare, that you were the initiator of this thread....... we wouldn't want the neighbours to get the wrong idea, would we?

And about that 50x50 limit..... don't worry about it..... there are loads of us 'nose girls' around here.... hey, blow it up so it's ALL nose
That will drive KathW over the edge for sure!

Mr. I, please do not think that I was trying to in any way limit your discussions on this subject...... I simply moved it out of Shareaza and to a place where it logically should receive more coverage.
Gee, I even gave it a fairly clear subject title which is just obscure/new enough to actually attract readers!
Still wanna talk...
