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.

Default Add 2 Genres

Will someone please add two Genres from Caribbean music. Soca and Calypso. It beats me why most audio programs do not include these very popular genres.

I apologise for my ignorance but what is crunk? if your downloading stuff say artist x - song one you could always change it in library to artist x - song one [crunk] and then when you want to download some crunk it will come up on the search.
I am guessing christian punk?

Hmm, the way I see things, there should be less genres if anything! It's annoying downloading songs from the same record, and having to change the genre thanks to people quibbling over whether it's punk, punk rock or heavy rock, hell, all albums vary in style a bit from song to song, there (in my view) should be a more limited genre list to account for such discrepancies in user opinion..

Well, I guess I have to be really old fashioned because I still remember a time when R&B used to mean Rhythm & Blues but now it means anything with a back beat.

I guess then that more genres are not the answer because today things are moving so fast that before you know it your genre has broken down into sub-genres or has just vanished, e.g. I don't hear House anymore.

That's exactly what I think, though I can see why others may want to add very specific genres into their searches. Maybe instead of asking to add to the list within limewire, ask to add the ability to type in your own genre, or the ability within the options list to remove ones you don't want / add ones that you do want into the list? That would help stop someone else from asking the same thing in a couple of months time..


But anyway, from what I can see limewire just searches the genre field like any other, so if you have space to write the genre you're searching for in another field just stick it in, and it should have the same results.

Why stop at audio? How about video, I can think of a whole list of subcategories. The mind boggles. Just start with Adult and work your way down .
