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.

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.

If you are trying to download some program. Yes, it's you

If you are not looking at filesize before downloading. Also you

If not then please try to give a more detailed description of the problem. What kind of files, use of filters etc.

yes i am trying to download programs but always .zip or rar
im not sure what you mean by filters because i have never had to use filters before. I have never had a problem before downloading anything from limewire it has been a great P2P server I also understand that I am connecting to others pc's and that limewire is just a gateway to them. Try down loading ******* that is the latest file i have tried to access but can not download do to the alcan/32 trojan :mad:

(READING RULES WONT POST FILE NAMES)

Best advice is to go out and purchase the software you are trying to d/l.....Guaranteed virus free:wink:.

Have you tried checking the files with Bitzi Web Lookup to see if they have been rated by other users. Program files are the most likely to be infected with viruses.

BadCopy Pro is a copyrighted program and as such is against the Forum Rules to discuss ways to aquire it illegally. My advice to use Bitzi Web Lookup is good and is one way to help distinguish a good file from a bad one. The part about buying it was meant to be tounge in cheek, hence the wink at the end.

So I could call you a troll since you you are acting like one.

BTW thanks for the response, my post count just went up by one.

Pretty please with sugar on top get into your head that Limewire is not a good program to download other programs with. This issue is getting old. If you are so set on obtaining programs illegally then use something else to do it with.

There is no other way than to use Bitziweb lookup as the large majority of all applications shared on Limewire contain viruses

Look 6_pac. Almost 1.000 now

Must now hurry on now to give some more useless advice so I reach the magic number

I followed the link that was provided and READ lord of the rings posts and FAQS. and understand the Bitziweb lookup now.

The quoted post and the ones that followed are a result of 2 things
1 being totaly frustated (download junkie)
2 excess whiskey last night

thanks for info and help
