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 XoloX connect error - Hostslists.txt

Dear Users,

We noticed that our initial Gnutella hosts aren't working ok. (again ). Sorry for this inconvenience..

Characteristics:
XoloX announces : ' Can't connect to network' when you start the application.

Work around:
Totally close XoloX (also in the taskbar).
Download this attachment and place it in your xolox directory.
Restart the application.

Impact on longer term:
Once XoloX gets a stable connection, it will build a hostslist itself.

Request:
To keep this hostlist updated, I would like to ask to other XoloX Users to place their hostlist.txt in this thread too. Thanks..



Greets,
Pasman

Here is my current hostlist (20:19 GMT+1), if you wanna try. I had no problems with gnutella today.

Pasman, what is the purpose of the hostlist and why is it not full human readable? Thx, Moak

Hostlist.txt is a host cache you keep to make connecting to the network faster. I assume it's not human readable so people can't use it to easily harvest G'net user's IPs. (Using XoloX anyway)

Hi Seeker!

Harvest gnutella IPs, I understand. Hmm it's much more efficient to ask a gnutella host cache for harvesting and bad spys can use 'netstat' anyways. Security by obscurity, does not help for my taste but limit some features a human readable hostcache would give (prefered hosts trade with friends or LAN). However...

Another thingy, which are Xolox host caches ("initial gnutella hosts"), wouldn't it make sense to let the users edit the gnutella host caches too?

Back to coding.... CU
