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. Commercial weblinks cannot be used under any circumstances and will result in an immediate ban.

13. Dual accounts are not allowed. Cannot explain this more simply. Attempts to set up dual accounts will most likely result in a banning of all forum accounts.

14. Video links may only be posted after you have a tally of two forum posts. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam. Video link posting with less than a 2 post tally are considered as spam.

15. 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 Lost All My Songs But 15

I did not see anywhere that this should go as there is no section for general problems. it is not a connection problem , so I could not put it there. Looks like there needs to be a forum for general problems.

My problem. I have had none with Limewire until now. I had downloaded and was sharing 235 files. They were in my library in Limewire. Something happened to all but 15 songs. They just disappeared. When I go to documents the Limewire "Saved" folder is there with all the songs , but they vanished out of the Limewire Library. Can someone tell me what happened ? So that I can prevent it in the future.

Thanks

Thanks for you reply. I am using LimeWire 5.1.3. And I was not using the quick list. All the files just vanished from the LimeWire Playlist except for 15 songs. Can't explain why that happened. Thought perhaps someone here could give me a possible explanation.

Thanks again.

NoNo. Only the LimeWire Playlist. They remained in the iTunes playlist and they remained in my LimeWire "SAVED" folder in My Documents. Only on the LimeWire Playlist did they dissapear. I cannopt be more clearer than this.

Open LW & click on P2P Network in the sidebar... are there only 15 songs that show up in P2P network?

I just tried this & only songs that I'm sharing with the P2P network in LW appear in the LimeWire playlist in iTunes

You can share/unshare whatever files you choose - this link has a bit more info: LW 5.1 Adding folders to My Library, sharing/unsharing files, removing folders - Windows.

I just wondered why this happened and thought someone could explain why it happened so that I could maybe prevent that from happening again in the future

Thanks for all your help.

Well More problems. I uninstalled LimeWire and iTunes and did a clean install. Now when I download songs from LimeWire , it no longer puts them on iTunes.
All my old folders are gone now that I did a clean install. So why does LimeWire NOT put my songs on iTunes ?

Apologies, I had problems understanding your post. Perhaps your wording is at fault. LW Playlist which one? The LW program does not have a playlist. Quicklist is all it has. Perhaps you are mistaking the wording of what you mean by comparing it to another p2p program. I've used LW for almost 7 years but had problems understanding what you were talking about.

If the songs were still in Saved folder, simply drag & drop them back into LW's Library window. I've no idea why they would have dropped out of Library window by themselves without user intervention somewhere along the line with LW's settings or with the files themselves. Unless the LW preferences were somehow affected by logging off computer too soon after LW was closed (preferences not saved properly.)

I've removed my subscription to this thread, that should appease you. Considering putting you on my ignore list, that might be best so you only get assistance from those who can read. Done. We do this for free. Always other things I can be doing. Good luck with using LW 5.
