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.

Which client are you using? If you're using the original one, then that's why you're having problems.

perhaps I was a little vague, when I say I haven't downloaded anything, I mean that every time I try to download something, it always says "timeout, busy, down, push, error." In the rare cases where I actually get a download to start, the damn thing terminates after I get 30% of it, and it takes forever just to get that much. GNUTELLA sucks, I appreciate what they're trying to do, but for now, IT SUCKS!!!!!!!!!!!!

There are a bunch of different programs that you can use to access the gnutella network. That is what he means by 'client'. If you are using an outdated client, you should upgrade. The older software is buggy and will not work well. Go to http://www.gnutelliums.com and find a good one for your platform of choice.

Angry Gnutella destroys computers!

All the clients suck because Gnutella sucks.
Can't download, big deal!
Everytime I even try to install a Gnutella client, MS OS 2K freaks out. My internet stops functioning. My Control Panel craps out. I can't even copy or move files!
I'm forced to wipe the Hard Drive clean and start all over.
Gnutella sucks! Do not use it!

Thumbs down 2 million!!??

You know it's funny that I only hear about how crappy gnotella is from just about everybody & then this individual adds some comment about 2 million people thinking this "program" is the bomb-What A Joke!! Where, pray tell, are these "2 million" "happy" users at? Because I can't see ANY of them-and I've Never had a problem with ANY of the other programs on my system the way this crappy-*** gnotella. It's next to impossible to download any damn thing & I share the frustration of the people on this thread-& trust me, I am NO stranger to any of this stuff, I have a super fast connection AND a fairly kick-your-*** system, so PUL-eez, don't give me a one line ridiculous answer about how everybody here is wrong & you are right.

gnotella? make that "NOT-tella"

With all due respect, there are 2 words to describe it and they are: Pure CRAP!!! (& that's being nice about it)

Angry sucks

you are not alone in your frustration-I've Never had a P2P program perform as badly as this one & I find myself sitting for many more hours than I need to, hoping that as I conduct another futile search that maybe, Just maybe, something will give way & I'll be in happy download land...BUT, that has yet to happen & now it is 5:30 in the morning & I'm tired. And Frustrated to the max!

I'm tried of people like you that ***** about gnutella (the network , its not a program as you were referring it too). Gnutella has grown to 40,000+ in the past 6 months http://www.limewire.com/hostcount.htm . The reason you cant download everything you want is b/c only 30-40% people who are connected to gnutella are accepting incoming connections and sharing files. That means that other 70% are downloading from that 30-40%. Why your download speed is so damn slow. The traffic from other connected hosts (searchs, etc) take up 50% of your bandwidth. Which is annoying but NO ONE can help that at the moment. Gnutella client developers are working on that as we speak. Then people with dsl/cable or higher connections like to set the download speeds to 0.0KB/s or just dont know how to manager their bandwidth with host connections, TTL, download, and upload counts. I'm on a modem connected @ 26,400kbps that is slow as hell. But I still manage to share and download files. The best client is LimeWire. I'm currently using LimeWire 1.4b and I share around ~120 files. I get ~50% download success. My setup is this.....I have MY TTL set to 10 and my MAX TTL 10. I have my HOST CONNECTIONS set to 2. Upload speed set to 3.5KB/s. Max Uploads 1 and Upload Per Person 1. Downloads 2. I've noticed when I get a excellent (1,000+) amount of search results when I'm connected to ~50+ TBs (both/or) 1500+ hosts. Just start LimeWire and come back in ~5 minutes to establish good connections. With the search results, LimeWire has this great feature called GROUPING. When more then one host has the same file (ex: the band - song.mp3). It'll show multiple search results according to that filename. Which means....if you download from that GROUPING (ex: multiple 10), you'll have a greater download succession rate. If you look @ http://www.limewire.com/hostcount.htm. You'll see the peak times for searching are between 8am to midnight during the weekdays and 8am Friday till Sunday midnight weekends. As if you havnt realize you can download LimeWire @ http://www.limewire.com.

Been there, Done that. Done All of that! I have DSL, which is hardly slow-& I have other P2P's that aren't a problem. I just like to try new & different things, unfortunately this "network" just isn't cutting it. Not at all.

Sorry, I just have an addendum to my last comment & that is to say everyone is telling everyone to not share their files...or limit to limit your sharing files. Please correct me if I'm wrong But isn't the whole purpose of this "network" is to SHARE??

Too contradictory, from where I'm standing because that's ridiculous-how can you Find files if Nobody is sharing them!

Default CONNECTION PROBLEM

You have a connection problem, your ISP is blocking you because we all get files at 56k so your kick *** ISP sucks, not gnutella. Figure out how they are blocking you and then get around it.
TTL at 10 gets you no where because most clients will just drop your packet if the TTL is over 7.
40,000 clients are on line at any one time, 2 million users are estimated by zeropaid.

Exclamation sucks / doesn't suck -> be constructive

well, this might be wasting my time, but i will give it a try ...

instead of blaming (rant), try to be constructive. i guess all the people writing here are using the gnutella network. and i guess it works for most of them. it hasn't necessarily worked for all of them right from the start, but they got it to work. this is a community that will help you on - but stop blaming and tell us more about your configuration (system, program, isp) and we will try to help you on. or, if you really know a better alternative, tell us about. we will give it a try and switch, if it really is better.

so, talk instead of shouting and we will all benefit from it
