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. |

 SL suffering due to USA servers Some of you are probably aware that in USA some ISP's oversell the amount of bandwidth they have. Thus they get stressed down either at various times of day or all the time. Some of them will use p2p shaping or blocking to return some bandwidth. They may apply this to p2p sharing or games. It's cheaper for them to do this than to buy more bandwidth since their business customers & their residential customers who only browse is where they get their money. Of course they never tell anybody about their crises. An example of a p2p game program that is suffering, overseas users from Australia & some from UK are getting high packet loss as a result of a poorly behaving server in USA. Let's hope the Lindens listen.  The following trace routes were done by (1) myself & after contacting my ISP, (2) they did their own & also (3) arranged for other Australian & UK ISP's to also do trace-routes to Linden. Due to forum's rules on privacy, some ip addresses have been edited out. Last login: Sun May 6 20:05:00 on console Welcome to Darwin!

Its not just traffic going over the singtel link its also the level3 link and the internap link." (Edit: 25/5/07: (1) Recent gif attachment included. Bandwidth is set to 320 to reduce packet loss. 25% loss was about 7-8 hours before the other. * Problem 2 is program related: -> (2) jpg image: -> Building is a club. Typical about how all one sees is grass, then eventually the floor. Can see the distant buildings but not the building walls. After perhaps 15-30 mins eventually the building will show. Nice huh. Oh & "IF" AV's are visible, they are usually grey. Add to that chat lag, IM lag, movement lag, difficulty loading appearance & inventory, etc. The list goes on. But for some reason, FirstLook seems to overcome most of this problem. But where is FirstLook now? Why is there no other option for us? Look around this forum & you will see many p2p programs where one version might not work for one person but does for another .. & then the next version perhaps vice versa. So ... more than one version is needed for users. Not just your only choice SL version works for you or you are stuffed philosophy.) Would be nice to hear some SL feedback! ? Despite the tone earlier, excuse me but, I am wanting to solve this for both myself & others who are in the same boat. Last edited by Lord of the Rings; May 25th, 2007 at 02:47 PM.  |

| "FirstLook" the Saviour !!! Well finally after about 6+ weeks FirstLook is available again. What a saviour. Life is back to normal in SL. For some reason packet loss is minimised. So why is FirstLook not available ALL the time, not just when the Lindens feel inspired to release it. There are a number of people in the same boat as me who cannot use the normal SL program properly but solve their problem using FirstLook. SL is the first p2p program I have come across that dogmatically forces everyone to use a single version regardless of whether it works for everyone or not. And fact is, with all p2p programs there are always a notable percentage of persons who can not use the most recent or particular version thus stay with what they have or go back a version. FirstLook should be available 100% of the time for all users if they are struggling with the main SL program. Doing so is not making the network go backward, it is catering for everyone. Note the packet loss sample image below & compare it to the packet loss of the above attachments in the previous post. 1% compared to over 20%. Also, user differences are: 1. Rezzes buildings almost immediately. 2. Rezzes people almost immediately (though they may be grey, at least they can be seen.) 3. Less inventory issues. 4. As a result of less packet loss, no clothes or object issues when adding or removing them from the AV. 5. Objects are more easily rezzed to the ground or returned to inventory. The 2nd attachment GiF below is taken from a club. Same club as an image above where the building can't be seen. The AV was logged directly into the club & the walls rezzed within a second or 2. Other minor details a little longer. Packet loss was a little high for about a minute .. about 14%. But over time this settled down. As can be seen by both frames of the GiF image, the average packet loss became minimal after 10-20 mins. |
