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.

stacker thats a sweet-looking desktop! what are you using for that? does the info monitor come with your desktop?

regarding the lw sizing, try changing to small buttons, with no text, that might make some more room available

Nope no go.... thanks for the try though. I think I just need to get the English installer and all will be ok. I got too tired to do it lastnight.

The desktop is using a variety of things, after switching from Debian to Microsoft, I needed the nice things I had from KDE Look. Foremost difference I guess would be from DesktopX. Yes all the gauges are active, the wireless network & battery gauges are needed on cause that computer is a laptop.

hey sorry to hear that (that you had to switch to microsoft, & that you have to re-install). its interesting to see that the internationalization of an installer would be causing the prob;lem. i imagined the only difference would be the text involved, but i guess not...

You may in fact (purely a guess) have had 2 issues. It has happened with the odd person that their options windows were not showing the bottom buttons: 1st solution & then 2nd solution But these might or not apply to you. But worth trying eh!

Re: options -- we've fixed the problem of people closing the options window without seeing the 'Apply' or 'OK' buttons. For LimeWire 4.2+, whenever you close the window, it'll prompt you if you want to save or discard (or cancel) the changes, if LimeWire detected you changed any settings.

So, no more need to ask people if they've hit OK & Apply.

That's an excellent development sam. How about osx? I'm not the only one to have a problem with option windows & more creating the spinning beach ball lasting several minutes. Any answers for this one? The ram is more stable though vm still runs reasonably high which has affected I think 2 people who have posted in last few days. I first noticed it (spinning ball on option windows) on the late 4.1 betas. But it can also happen in other areas such as deleting a file from the dwnld list & others I can't think of off-hand at this time of day.

Despite having a reasonable amount of ram. LW doesn't seem to do a very good job of handling it for osx. Spinning beach balls are a sign of major problems for any osx app. Wouldn't you agree? Or isn't mac's java up to it?

Sorry I should have been a bit more clear.... I went back to XP from LInux because there were a couple features of my newest laptop that were not yet compatible with Linux. I am a Linux user, that does not mean I know how to write my own drivers, though it seems I am the only Linux user who can't lol....

As for the Thai issue (I assume that is what was doing it) I too have the problem with not only the progress bars being cut as the screenshot showed, but also the apply and ok all the bottom buttons in preferences not being visible. I scroll the screen down to see them, but a new user would not know they are supposed to be there. I thought maybe it is is my video driver, but it does it on the new laptop as well with ATI.

Edited: Sorry for the double post Lag .... Please delete the above.

Also I just uninstalled Limewire and installed the 5.5mb English version and my display issues are now gone, thanks for the tips.
