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.

Angry Disk Problem

I am getting frustrated, I have seen many posts for this but no answer. I am running LW pro 4.14.0 on Windows Vista home Premium.
I try to download anything and it immediately shows 100% but under status it reads disk problem. I have always been able to download with LW, this has never happened to me. I am still able to download with another P2P program, I have plenty of space left over 100 GB.
I emailed tech support and have gotten no reply, I have done a folder change, reset defaults re-downloaded LW, reset the license pop-up to download anyway, what else is there to do, I finally was able to purchase LW pro, it works for a month then this.
Please help.

I've recently had this most annoying thing happen. But I might not be able to help too much, there are a few differences between your problem & mine.

For starters, I'm using XP rather than Vista. Also, my 'disk problem' message didn't appear straight away...rather anywhere between 50 - 90% download. I could download music without a problem, it was only large torrents (movies) that triggered the 'disk problem'.
I have 60 GB of free space left on my HDD.

I ended up changing the location of my download folder onto an external HDD. Problem solved (touch wood) for me

Before that, I defragged the HDD (it's done regulrly but did it again anyway), Did a disk cleanup, checked the HDD for errors (right clickon the HDD > properties > tools > error checking > check now.

Start off by defragging your HDD, that's fixed the problem for a few people. Otherwise, check out these threads for more advice & things to try. These threads refer to XP but hopefully things are the same (or similar) for Vista.

Default Grateful

I wanted to say thank you to anyone who has offered help on this issue anywhere on here. I am at least able to download to an external HD thanks to all the advice here and throughout the forums. It is no fun having issues with software and not knowing the answer, so when people are responding only to help and not antagonize it is much appreciated.

I am still waiting on LW tech support to get back to me on how to fix the disk problem for my laptop, I spend a lot of time at school on their network and it would be nice to use LW there as well, I always have.

Anyway I think it is going to be a re-format type of solution.
Time to back it up!

Again thank you all.

OK so I am running Windows Vista Home Premium edition, I have two movies I downloaded--rather my husband downloaded-- and I have updated this morning to the newest version thinging this would rid me of the 'Disk Problem' message that I got for those two movies. It was fine until it went to verify the movie file and then gave 'Disk Problem'. I have over 150GB free space on my HDD so that isn't the problem, I have checked my firewall settings, I have run Disk Defrag daily as usual, and it's only these 2 files. Plus now since updating the basic edition I don't have access to my old LW files which bites BIGTIME. I've called Microsoft and HP both of which have told me this is a LW issue not a system issue. I am not that computer savvy so I don't know what to do here to fix it so they aren't in my incomplete file. I have also had a problem with trying to create folders to partition my music and video like I had set up before. Can someone help me please? I would really appreciate it. Thanks in advance for any and all help you can provide.
