Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you
LimeWire and FrostWire users need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)

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.

Program updates and tech. support are valid for 6 month when purchasing LW from the official LW site (see my post above) for $18.88.
After that you still can use the Pro version but you won't get any more updates and tech. support (though you'll get help here,.....for free).
It is recommended to save the LW installer exe in case something goes wrong with your system (computer)......especially after the 6 month period.
If you haven't done so, well, then it is unfortunate for you, as LW doesn't replace the lost exe for you, unless you purchase another 6 month.

Lightbulb scam

This site scammed me winmx-software-download.com and that sent me to this one http://MP3MusicHQ.com/me/login.asp Where I easily downloaded Limewire and wondered why I did not have the pro version. Thanks guys for this forum, It has helped so much.

Angry Anyone hear of MP3-source?

I paid $49.92 for basic Limewire that I still can't get working on my PC. I downloaded the free one from limewire.com for my mac and it works fine. I can't seem to get anyone on the phone or by e-mail. I believe it is a scam. I 've been tyrying for a month. Is there anything my bank can do? Who do I notify? Even if I don't get MY money back, I want people warned.

I have seen simular scams to these on e-bay and on software sights the best place to download the free version is from either limewire.com or c-net/download.com buy the pro version from limewire.com and you won't get scammed.

I tried 3 times yesterday (August 8, 2006) to upgrade to "limewire pro" and I kept getting an error message saying that my zip code did not match the billing zip code of my charge card. I called my bank to find out why the card would not work and they said the the charge of $18.88 was applied to my account 3 times.....however I never received the pro version and now my account has been charge a lot more than it should have been. Also, the system does not recognize my email address and says that I am not in the system. I cannot receive technical support because I haven't upgraded to the pro version. Please advise....I would very much like to upgrade to "Limewire Pro", but at a charge of only $18.88, not $56.64. PLEASE ADVISE!
