Members 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. 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. 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. |

 ->LimeWire's ONLY web site is Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « ->LW basic is free, never pay for it, except for Pro version from official web site (18.88US$ for 6 months support) * Edit: price as of 2007-2009 is $21.95 for 6 months support and updates or Extended PRO for 1 year for $34.95! __ LimeWire occasionally offer specials such as $13.95 with no support or updates, just a single copy of LW Pro. _____ (See page 4 for a list of Known Scam Sites (click on link) .) ->You've been scammed? Try to get a refund ASAP! Two ways: 1) ->ask and re-ask the scammers by email for a refund since they are providing a free product for a charge and that they are lying about 100% legal downloads (DON'T email people at limewire.com, this is their legit addresses, not the scammers addresses) 2) ->if you just "registered" their service, try to stop the money transfer by calling your bank and telling them you've been scammed Fight back! ->please file a complaint to the FBI with the scammers web site address: http://www.ifccfbi.gov/index.asp (Lime Wire » Official Website & Free Download, BitTorrent « is NOT the scam website, link the one you registered onto) It is true that GPL permits selling of software, HOWEVER Those sites are illegal and fraudulous because: -They do not give access to FrostWire source, as required by the GPL -They lure new non-experimented users into thinking that a subscription gives them the right of legally downloading copyrighted works (Unlimited songs, movies, Legal) which is totally false, as other P2P activities, respect your country laws -They don't tell what software users are getting (all 100% free software) and links to official websites -They don't tell that the only thing they could charge, is the support over the usage of the softwares (a support often better on official web sites and forums) How they work: -Big scammers makes many websites to lure as many newbies as they can to pay (for exemple, mymusicinc.com, musicinc.cc and allcoolmusic.com have all the same owner), while softwares have only one official website. -They pay Google many thousands of dollars for ads that are displayed accordingly to your search keywords or the subjects of a web page you visit. -Once they get too many frustrated users on one site, the scammers close the site and reopen another one with a different address and different design. -They make millions while legits software developers most often work for nothing. Please spread the word and use this thread to share your experiences and exchange ideas about how to get a refund. They do NOT deserve your money over OTHER's work. Do NOT encourage those parasites. Known Scam Sites (click on blue link) -et voilà

| Yes, Kforcat... Please come back and tell us what site you went to where the different 'membership' offers were sold... And, please mention what other, if any, filesharing programs were also offered... Thanks btw, if you just did that 'purchase' a very short time ago, do try to cancel the payment with your card company... As Soon As Possible... As in like Right Now !

It is already processed on my card (like last month) not sure what I can do about that - I sure hope they don't charge me again!! It pretty much explained that to get limewire - I had to join to be able to get the download What have I done?? And where are most of you nice people from - the times of the posts are a little squirly ?? 11:02 p.m.? |

| Sorry, Kforcat... There isn't much that you can do... Well, more like nothing, actually... But, remember, in future do not pay for anything on the internet that you cannot first test for FREE... The site you visited where they cheated you is typical of this sort of deception... They take advantage of the people who hear about filesharing (and other computer related stuff such as games, etc., etc.) and try to rely on the 'newness' of people... Now, you are not so 'new' anymore, right ?  Oh... The weird time display ? You mean in this forum, right ? That is probably because you are not registered here...Yet When/if you do register... FREE... than you will have settings to make about your time-zone and other stuff... Last edited by ursula; April 5th, 2004 at 01:58 AM. |

| Unfortunantely we have been hearing about many of these "information" sites recently. The only place to download the free version of LimeWire or to purchase the pro version is at www.limewire.com . As I suggest to anyone that buys the information, contact your credit card company and dispute the charge. Thanks, Adam Harris Business Developer Lime Wire, LLC. |

| Cyclocide, the chief moderator here, has been blocking such ads on this site. Just PM Cyclocide with the site address and he can block their ads.. Can't LimeWire at least ask Google to block those sites that are misleadingly using LW's open source, or else ask those sites to clearly indicate where LW is freely available? You may not be able to block those sites, but surely you can ask them to be clear in their use of LW's name and logo. |

| It is not exclusive to LimeWire, as I know you know, stief... It applies to all of the better clients and networks. I mention this now only to make it clear that it is not only LimeWire being used as a 'tease product' to encourage 'new users' into a trap. As others have said, read the fine print and you will see that these groups are 'legal' in the letter of the law.  |
