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.

sorry if this has been suggested already:
i would appreciate it a lot, if there was a keyboard shortcut for the "back to search" button. when you search a lot, it is annoying if you always have to use the mouse button to do a new search.
Thanks!!

Default size does matter

I would like it if lime wire could have more search abilities when it comes to size. all I'm asking is for them to add a min and max limit on the size and a size search which would allow us to search for all files of a specific sizes that way you can search for more of the same file even if the name has been changed.
ps it would also help stop those irritating 20 to 500 kb viruses automatically generated on certain ip.

Searches by hash are not allowed, but there is hope the developers can find a way with a Distributed Hash Table.

Default exact search terms

Why doesn't LW search ONLY the exact term I enter?

example:

I enter the search term for the artist Greg Johnson but I get a gazillion results made up of Jack Johnson, other Johnsons, other Gregs and combinations of groups of people including Gregs and Johnsons.

Try using an "Any Type" search and add the file extension

"Greg Johnson .mp3"

Cool Feature Request ----> File Size Filter <----

What the hell is in those 851.7s anyway? The perpetrators sure are a busy bunch. Must be an interesting life, spending endless hours creating pollution like that on purpose. Kinda' like looking back across a once pristine lake and proudly thinking "see all those turds floating there? Those are MY turds!"

Lightbulb I have ideas

WELL I HAVE SOME IDEAS

FIRSTLY I WANT A UPGRADE WHERE THERE IS A BUTTON THAT CLEARS ALL THE DOWNLOADS THAT HAVE FINISHED OFF THE LIST. JUST NEXT TO THE PREVIEW BUTTON OR SOMETHING.

JUST A SIMPLE PICTURE OF A ERASER CLEARING OFF A BLACK BOARD


SECOND I WANT A FEATURE WHEN A SEARCH BAR APPEARS WHEN YOU SEARCH FOR A FILE. IT SEARCHS THE SEARCH FOR THE WORD YOU HAVE TYPED FOR THE FILENAME.

EG. I TYPE IN "MOCKING BIRD" LIMEWIRE SEARCHES THE SEARCHS. IT FINDS:

EMINEM: MOCKING BIRD


LUCKY LAST YOU DONT HAVE TO ADD THIS BUT IT WOULD BE GRATEFUL. JUST A SCREEN BOX UNDER THE "ALL TYPES" SEARCH BOX. SO THAT IF WE PREVIEW A FILE THAT IS A MOVIE WE DONT HAVE TO PLAY IT ON THE PROGRAM "WINDOWS MEDIA PLAYER"

IF YOU CAN DO THIS IT WOULD BE EASIER TO WORK LIMEWIRE AND I WOULD BE GRATEFUL

Chuckie... Wrote you about half a book... Got hit by one of those Cyberian snap crackle pop events and it's gone. Sorry, don't have time to redo just now but... Control your clear downloaded from the options menu (set) jump to library and hit refresh. If they don't clear there is a fragment yet to be downloaded. They are what freeze your video when you try to play what seems to be almost (99%) complete. It's like a 10 foot section of bridge that's missing just after it starts over water. It's not much in the overall but you still end up in the river and can't get back up there to finish the crossing. As for a "universal" player... When they finish that universal translater from Star Trec it should hook right in. The multitude of Codecs are virtually like languages all of their own with no common thread other than being digital in nature. Like the common thread in language - They are all spoken, but there is no shared essence. Now compare those languages in the written forms - Russian, English, Chinese, Aribic, Hebrew. There is nothing about one that is even remotely similar to the other, even when they are saying exactly the same thing. But, you might find Crystal Player will play partial files when nothing else will (or can even identify its format) http://www.crystalplayer.com/CrystalPro.exe. Instead of hitting "launch" to preview your file jump out to the real directory location of the file <goto the incomplete sub directory> (explore button in library) right click the file and "open with" Crystal Player. It isn't a 100% sure thing. You still have to have enough of the file for it to have something to grab on to, but it sure does outperform all of the "big boys" when it comes to "unidentified format, file fragment, media samples". Haven't used it in quite a while, and it's come a long way since I used it last. Had to Google around for quite some time before I relocated it (all I could remember was it had something to do with ICE). So you have in fact done me a service in trying to locate it for you. Forgot all about it, and really look forward to playing with it again. Anyway, hope it helps... Stick with it guy, you'll get your arms around it soon enough, and you'll look back and wonder what it was that seemed so difficult at the time... Then it'll be up to you to pass your sage wisdom along to someone struggling to make their first trans Cyberian crossing without a compass, map, or faithful Shurpa to guide them...
