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 A Big Thankyou to the Limewire Developers!

Apart from earlier today my last posting was way back in 2004! I've been a regular user of Limewire since then and this great little application has gone from strength to strength.

Now, what I'm going to say won't go down well with the many forum members who have problems running Limewire smoothly, but it does seem that in many cases (though I agree their are genuine Limewire 'glitches') it is quite often a lack of basic knowledge in understanding how their own computers / OS's work and has nothing to do with the Limewire app itself).

However, this posting is not to speak ill of inexperienced computer users. We all have to start from somewhere and we all learn from experience. What I would like to say is a big THANKYOU to all the LIMEWIRE DEVELOPERS who have put together the application and continue to work at it to ensure it remains a success. THANKS also go to those FORUM MEMBERS whose invaluable advice and experience continues to help out the Limewire community.

In my personal experience of Limewire I have never had any issues. It has always done exactly what it says on the tin. The new Junk Filter option is a blessing and works a treat. Never had any problems with starting up, sharing, saving in the correct locations, or transferring to iTunes. No playback problems, and no viruses. Of course, I get the odd mp3 or aac file that is 'noise' or the content is not that which has been specified by the filename. But that's a small price for sharing files with millions of souls.

Ah, I feel better now. It's been dull and wet since Christmas and I needed to say something positive. Cheers.
