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.

Lightbulb Configuration tutorial...

I have been trying out GTK-Gnutella and I finally got it installed and all. I am working on the configuration for it right now, but there is so much to understand when you are decently new to most of this along with linux. I am used to kazaa, simple and all, so I'm a bit confused. I was thinking maybe it would be a good idea if anyone is interested, to possibly make a tutorial on configuring gtk-gnutella for optimal performance (possibly on a cable modem)... It should include screen shots of every tab of configuration to help ease the process along with speed it up. This would be a great idea, if anyone is interested. Maybe there is already one out there? If so can I get a link to it? Also, if possible can whoever does take this offer up, use the newest release of gtk-gnutella for the demo? THANKS!

Default in agreement

and if by chance you do get a reply please share it with the rest of us , because just like you I'm a bit confused about the whole thing.
Just a polite way of saying thanks for this post.
And if some one does take out the time please give hints or clues on which distro's work best.
I personally use Fedora & Ubuntu.

If you have a specific problem it's best to ask about it
on the users' or developers' mailing list. There are tons
of options but (almost) all of them are set to reasonable
defaults. Usually, the only thing you really need to configure is adding the paths to directories with files you
want to share. If the tooltip for a setting doesn't look
interesting or you don't understand what it's about it's
rather likely that keeping it as-is is perfectly fine.

One thing that's interesting but a little difficult is the
filter system. However, you'll find a link to a short tutorial on the website:
