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.

Default User interface languages for Pro International Ver?

UI has been 100% translated into several languages. According to limewire.org, this includes e.g. Polish and Simplified Chinese.

How do I switch the user interface language to any of those languages?

Either by setting your system language on Windows or by editing the limewire.props file.

Simply add line like this:
"LANGUAGE=PO/CN/EN/whatever".

We'll most likely also add a language option for the next major release (not 3.8).

Cool, I guess I'll wait for the next ver. Trap_jaw, that didn't work for me. You must have a better version.

That usually works. You may have to try some other extension (e.g. PL instead of PO). I don't really know the right ones by heart (except for EN & DE).

I can confirm that LimeWire already includes in its beta version a menu option to change the language to one that is supported (it requires restarting LimeWire).

Not all translations are complete, but if you want to participate, look into http://www.limewire.org/translate.html for how you can help providing more translations or completing the existing ones.

Also note that some languages won't display correctly with all themes. For now, the only themes which can display (at least on Windows) all languages are "Amber", "Classic", and "Halloween".

With some languages, it is necessary to revert the custom font names set in the "theme.txt" file from "Vardana" back to its default "dialog" font name (needed for Arabic, Chinese and Japanese, and further for all other non Latin-based languages that can't be displayed with the "Verdana" font).

May be we will try investigating on how to set a font family instead of just a single font in themes. Or we could just add the default "dialog" logical font name can display all languages supported by Java.

The "default"/"LimeWire" (or "LimeWirePro") themes works but only for one script (you can't display simultaneously Cyrillic, Arabic, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese Hirgana/Katakana). I think this will be fixed (this comes from the font selection which do not support all scripts simultaneously).

So to change to a supported script, you must first make sure to use a theme that displays the native language name correctly in the Language selection menu.

To display Arabic, Chinese or Japanese make sure you select an appropriate theme and that your Java installation is "international" and your native system is installed with the corresponding fonts needed for this language, before applying a new language, or you'll get many labels and items displayed as unreadable white boxes...

The language codes to use in your limewire.props file are the ISO language codes, as displayed on the http://www.limewire.org/translate.html

Limewire is smart enough so that it will use by default (in absence of a LANGUAGE= setting in limewire.props) the same language as the default language detected by Java from your current OS environment (the language bar if launched from Windows XP explorer, the current system locale on Unix/Linux or the prebuilt OS localization on Windows 9x/ME).

So English is not necessarily the default setting, and if you delete limewire.props in your home directory, the next launch of Limewire will first ask you a language to use (you may ignore this step if you wish) and the minimum shared folders and connection bandwidth.

If you remove manually the LANGUAGE= setting from LimeWire.props, Limewire will run successfully in your OS default language.

Newer versions of LimeWire now allow selecting the language directly from the Display menu. This feature needs a restart to enable the new setting throughout the GUI interface, because the first attempt to use new language settings dynamically was abandonned as it required too much change to broadcast this event to many already initialized GUI components that cache internally many localized strings for performance reasons, and rebuilding the GUI completely was really too complicated.
