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.

Its inapropriate for your children to see naked people, but ok to introduce them to thievery?

Sorry, but to me its a bit of a double standard.

Jandle, I can understand were your comming from, but its not Limewire's fault, it's just the software that connects you to all the other computers, that is what p2p is, its all of us sharing files with each other....LW does not supply music, movies, programs or any downloads what so ever...

So as soon as we the people relise that we can help put a stop to this uglyness the better and stop trying to palm it off to others...

And I dont let my kids touch Limewire, not only for the porn aspect of things, but all the viruses as well...
Limewire is not a childs toy and all parents need to relise this....

Default Clarification of what is on Limewire

JandL (& all the others that don't understand LW)

My forum colleague and friend Hobo said:
Quote:
For one thing there is questionable material available on Limewire, which you may not wish your children to see. For another there is utterly disgusting filth available which is quite rightly illegal to make and produce.
I would just like to clarify this point further.

The Limewire company/organisation does not host anything, what you see when you do a search is what is on PCs and servers owned by individuals. And as such, the LW org cannot control what we, as decent or sick people, want to share.

That is why LW Basic and Pro are not toys because this software allows anyone and everyone the ability to share whatever they want to, no matter how sick or illegal that thing is.

I know I said laws vary from country to country, but I believe child porn is illegal in most countries, so if I was you, I would still report it, and just see what they say.

What's really sad is not only are these kids having pictures taking of them but also that they might be being abused in real life by people.

Something really needs to be done, so I'd report IP addresses even if you don't think that they're in the U.S. or whereever.

hi i was also looking through limewire just browsing hosts. As u do find most of your unusal songs vids that way but was almost physically sick when i came accross the file named' 2 YEAR OLD GETTING RAPED DURING A DIAPER CHANGE. That is disgusting i have 3yr/4yr old sitting next to me playing when this appered how can anyone even think of doing this to a small 18month child SICK. I think anyone who has this on there pc should be lined up and shot belive me this isnt the worst ive thought of to do to them. Even if they have a file named that but its something innocent. How can they look at those words every day without being sick. there are some seriously sick people out there and the use of limewire and other p2p has just brought them out the woodwork. the police should bait people with these files as soon as dowload clicked the police should be on the way worldwide or not. or maybe limewire could contact isp to ban them from using internet
