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. |

| <a href="http://www.gnutellanews.com/article.html?id=5747">http://www.gnutellanews.com/article.html?id=5747</a><br><br><br>From the <a href="http://groups.yahoo.com/group/the_gdf/message/">Gnutella Developer Forum</a>:<p><blockquote>GDF,<p>I'm proud to announce that LimeWire has gone open source under the GPL license and <a href="http://www.limewire.org">http://www.limewire.org</a> is open. We may not have worked out all of the kinks in the site but what the heck. There is only one way to find out.<p>As you all know, LimeWire has wanted to provide a quality reference implementation for the proposals that we have been suggesting and implementing. We have also felt that there must be an open implementation underlying the Gnutella protocol for Gnutella to become a fundamental technology of the internet. Academics and all developers should have a baseline core engine and client that they can experiment with and base their work on. What attracted us to Gnutella is that it was an open protocol and free for all to use. We reject closed protocols such as FastTrack/Kazaa/Morpheus.<p>At the same time, we have seen the vitality in the Gnutella community. From developers to users and supporters in general, there is a great deal of interest and energy. However, in the developer community there has not been a great deal of code sharing. There are many of us building duplicate functionality in both open and closed source clients. We hope to bring like-minded developers together at LimeWire.org for the benefit of the whole Gnutella community. It is our intention to move forward at a much faster speed to fulfill Gnutella's potential. We welcome all who wish to help build Gnutella's future. LimeWire looks forward to exploring many potential uses and improvements to a Gnutella based P2P system. We can discuss further specifics on our LimeWire.org mailing lists.<p>I look forward to hearing your feedback.<p>Thanks<br>-greg</blockquote> |

| Wow - Great move! That's fantastic news - especially considering LimeWire is perhaps *the* leading G-Net peer. I think opening the code of such a good example will really help other peers' protocol implementation. P.S. What's the deal with SwapNut - it appears to be using code very similar to LimeWire, but they're doing some things that make me a bit nervous. |

Swapnut Virus Even if it's not true spamming (since the user is asked) - the program is target towards newbies, and many may not understand that "inform your friends" really means "Spam everyone in your address book". This kind of marketing is likely to cause UCE complaint to ISPs and result in people's accounts being pulled. Plus just the general way their home page never mentions Gnutella by name (as if they want to hide that from their users). They just say they use a "major" file sharing network. I hope this isn't another attempt by a company to co-opt the g-net at the expense of the other peers. At least by using LW's code it has a good, reliable base to build from. |

| this rules, now if someone can just add functionality to search other peoples hard drives to find people with similar tastes and then automatically download files from thoes computers when your not actively at your computer i think this could revolutionize the exchange of information , and have as important an impact on humanity as the invention of writing. |
