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. 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.

Yeh. Long time no see.

And many of the "old pros" are still here! Meaning "old" in the nicest possible sense of the word given my own age, of course.

Default Hi

That bouncing on the bed thing — inspiring.

Thought I'd try!

Your bits are conveniently out of harm's way, but what's left of my bits got caught in the springs. . .

They tried stitching — too much damage. . .

Life as a woman starts at 92.

You can download the Offline installer from the Java site directly. Just make sure you choose the Offline version which is listed 2nd on the page & is a 15.3 MB download; Java Downloads for All Operating Systems - including offline installers. After installing Java, it is best to reboot your computer. You will need to install Java first before you can run LimeWire.
If you are running Windows 7, right-click the Java offline installer after downloading & choose Run As Administrator before installing the Java. This sometimes helps for Vista and occasionally XP.

(Sample image of Java download page below, choose 2nd on list which is the Offline installer.)

Default limewire...

I haven't been to limewire..which i paid for some upgrade about 5 years ago.,for a couple of years. Then my harddrive froze up and i got a new harddrive. I don't know what version i had...or if i lost the songs i had in my library at limewire. Is there anyway to get it back? who would know? Is the pirated version an older version? Does anyone have an idea what I might have had 5 years ago? When i first went on limewire..songs would flip over to my itunes...then i got the upgraded cost money version and that quit happening...but there was two songs i got that i miss so much and i can't find it anywhere...it was by someone named clive..can't remember his last name or if that was his first name. He had something to do with producing some recording group a long time ago...something like the electric orchestra but i don't think it was that.. He had one song about paris..and he had this forelorn voice ..does anyone know or can someone look it up on limewire or tell me how to get my paid for limewire back or doesn't that work anymore.

Limewire always downloads the files to wherever you nominate on your drive. If you did not recover anything from your old drive before fitting the new, I'm sad to say you've lost whatever you had.

Clive Davies is now old but a really famous record producer. The Electric Light Orchestra has a terrific middle period. Out of the Blue, Discovery and Time are my favourites. Try looking at lists of ELOs tracks and see if anything strikes a memory chord.

Sadly, you cannot get any money back from Limewire for what you had. For this pirate version, just download and enjoy searching for what you lost.

Anyway is not the injunction in the UK, not here in outer mongolia?

About the java, do not worry, java is a perfectly good system used on lots of other kit. Many things you possibly do not know actually use java. If you D/L it from here it is safe and easy to use. They also have loads of other free stuff like office, I have installed it on several other people machines and it works superbly only snag is its in yank not real English.
