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.

I'd hate to be queuing up with Shareaza for a file to dwnld. lol From what I've seen it's a queue jumper or should I say, it literally pushes all others out of the way (off the queue) to get to the top of the queue. In primary school, I think we had a name for those types of characters. Certainly not very sociable on the p2p network. Such a friendly p2p app. I also can't ever remember having been able to dwnld from a Shareaza app. which suggests its name is somewhat out of place (share...share what!???) Steal & steal band frequency I think. Ah how could I be so hard! When 2 apps mediate/communicate b/w each other, they should do it in a communal way. Not I take, I take, I take ... (My Shareaza anim went wrong & I'm too tired to fix it up. blert)

Shareaza cant push others off the queue, its impossible.

If thats what seems to happen to you, then perhaps you should explain whatexact happens. Im a long time Shareaza user and know the program inside out.

OK fine! Shareaza starts off bottom of a queue of about 20. Then suddenly one or 2 lw users disappear off the list & Shareaza moves up. The LW users join again below it. Then the same happens to the next one/2 LW in the queue...all the way until the shareaza user reaches no.1 And if out of my thoughts of unfairness, I delete it from the list it repeats the exact process over & over! You trying to tell me that's sociable p2p behaviour? Somethun' ain't quite right there, eh!?! If you're a Shareaa user how the heck would you know about something like that. All you would inference is that your app moves up the queue.

My intention is NOT to 'hang it' on any other p2p app. despite the sounds of it. But there's obviously something wrong here. Shareaza is not the only app I've noticed do this, but also another. It's purely a statement I've made out of experience of using LW. I've never used S. or most of the others so I can't comment about their effectiveness (even be it apparently at the sake of other apps) ... I've only use 2 other p2p apps & they were all mac. So take my comments as suggested & not as a hang it reference. Oh what a mess of a post or 2. lol Maybe I should fix that anim after all lol I tried to combine 2 anims which is why it stuffed up ..oh what the..

Shareaza has rotating queues (meaning they cancel you to upload to another user). Also the average upload speed from shareaza is lower than others clients because Shareza is multinetwork.

So that was it....

My God, that's really annoying. The only source for certain file was a Shareaza user and the download had to start again, and again, and again....
