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. |

| I agree. There is some major bug with the connections and search and download issue. I get the 1kb speeds from dsl and t1 user constantly. Poor search results that I did not encounter when i had basic. I pay $19 and get a worse product with email tech support which by the way has never responded other that their autoreply. I hope these problems are fixed soon or i'm movin on to something else. |

| limewire is currently undergoing some massive code changes, so just bear that in mind while using it. bugs are being fixed left and right, if you find yourself not being able to use the newer versions at all, you can downgrade to the older 4.8.1 version. or stay current with beta releases as they are released. the newer 4.9.xx versions are versions that have massive code changes and if they dont work, we would like to hear your comments and bug reports on them. the more bug reports we get, the better software gets! so i hope to see you become one of the fellow beta testers and help us fix the bugs that are in these beta releases! i would really hope you stayed with limewire, but im not going to beg you. thanx -ultracross |

| i would also like to ask the two of you what your setup is? do you have a firewall? router? if so, did you configure it correctly: like port forward or use upnp? if you have WinXP SP2, did you disable the firewall or exempt limewire from it being blocked? and if we could get a screen shot of what you mean by "not downloading" that would help us out to solve your problem or fix any bugs related. any information you might have would be wonderful to help us solve your problem. i understand your frustration, but we can solve your problem if your willing to help us understand exactly what your doing to incurr this behavior from within limewire. thanks. ultracross |

| Yes, I configured my firewall correctly using the TCP/UDP set-up people recommend here, and still nothing. My speed says turbocharged almost all of the time. I usually stays poor until i disconnect then connect again after all of my downloads have finished searching for more sources. Then I try to search and get few results unlike about 1 month ago. Even if I get strong results the downloads are still poor. Slow speeds or the typical "downloading from X# hosts" "speed - 0kb/s." Even when I have 5 or 6 even 7 hosts, i can barely excede 10kb/s. I did however revert back to 4.8.1 Basic and this gave me much better results and download speeds up to 100kb/s. Its aggravating that I paid for Pro and Basic seems to work better. I hope these are bugs that are being worked on. How do I take a screen shot to post? I'll be glad to if it helps. jwbink1500 |

| Don't forget also that if you clicked no to the licence downlding & chose to always use that answer, then see Revert Popups to Default That's a point I was slow to recognise being a problem for some people. If generally you're having problems it might be wise to keep up with the latest versions (eg: beta versions.) But all the same, feel free to vote in my poll here Should LW 4.8.1/2 still be made available for those with problems (click on link). Not that it'll make any difference to the time of day but. lol  |
