Forum Rules

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client (* this is important for helping solve problems) ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you. To aid helpers in solving download/upload problems, LimeWire and Frostwire users must specify whether they are downloading a torrent file or a file from the Gnutella network.
Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)


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.

To the main point -- I have had no recent problems with limewire, what are you talking about? If you bought limewire pro you might as well stick with it. Of course I haven't been trolling the boards here so I don't know the latest information on what works best/most easily. Also, you really should post this on the limewire forum, if you want to get help from limewire developers/other users.

By the way, I also think that the shorthand makes the writer look REALLY ignorant for some reason. It grates on me. One reason is that my brain doesn't read it easily yet. Another reason is that it's not just shorthand, but a shorthand version of "cool, white, 15 year old, ghetto slang." Knamean? Another reason may be that for some reason I have yet to see complex/in depth content communicated in this language as it has a limited vocabulary. On the other hand I like the concept of a completely different language spawned by the internet.

Hi, Melissa......
Listen, unregistered people do NOT get the same 'use'.
Believe me........ Many of the people who could help you with any problems you may have will, in fact, mostly ignore posts from unregistered users. Being unregistered and remaining unregistered suggests that you are not serious, so why should real people help you ?
That is the way it really works, Melissa.

Hope you register.
And remember, Melissa...... If you are registered you can edit your posts, just in case you make a mistake and type something in clear English

Hmm...

I never made a difference, I think we shouldn´t make it... the good things of being registered is you can send PMs and ask some mebers directly!

Its good that this forum is free and don´t force anybody to register, which use do you have from a member who ask one or two questions and never come back (the most people do this way)?

I have no problems with unregistered users, I read them all but not trolls. It doesnt matter if you register to get an answer. A troll can be a registered or an unregistered user or a registerd hotmail user...

Saying unregisterd users are not serious in general, makes me wonder, you as a mod shouldn't say that.

Are you telling me whoever owns this forum allows 15 year olds to moderate?
Doesn't wisdom have anything to do with censoring the forum?
I think someone with more life experience and more tolerance & patience should be allowed to mod.

Hmm...

you think you are more patient and tolerant than paradog? I remember some of your posts, without any tolerance or patient, including this one here!

Give him a chance.

And yes age is not the only indicator for a mod...

What do you think how old the mods on bearshare.net are? I know Becker is 17 and the other are not much older... we have two young mods here, Paradog and Trustar (17), Trustar is one of the most patient and experinced persons I know, he is responsible for the clean Limewire project etc. yes and we have some mid ages mods here and some "oldies" - I think this is a good mix because the visitors are mixed too...

Really,
I think age is not an indicator for everything.
Would you all knew I was 15 if I wouldnt have told you?

I dont think so.

I never overreacted as a moderator and misused any of
the moderation functions ok?

Also you cant say that I have no experience in the
Gnutella Technology and General IT Technology.
I have already coded many stuffs that equal or even
top codes from *matures*.

So please dont judge me after my age.

Cool 16 here

...and I'm 16. Will be 17 on July. So what??? Ask anybody who was in the old Gnotella forums if I wasn't helpful!!! I was the 3rd in posts, and during the last months I was the only one who gave some advise there. I was probably the person who knew the most about Gnotella, as the developers after December never showed up again.

Default Melissa here

Look yeah I only came on here to get some help not some beef about how I write. Its not like In knew to write in full for some people, how was I supposed to know , get OFF my case and errr LET GO of the past, stop carrying on this L-O-N-G conversation (pointless) about it! You only wanted me to register so that you could trace me and see who I was!
Unregistered user is not a big thing for someone who wants to come on here for 2 mins for some help, geez! Why would I take the process of registering when I can do the same thing quicker with the same help? Think about it, it makes sense.
Ursula, what I meant was that I get the same use in sending and receiving messages. I'm a first time user on here ~ so how would I know I had to register otherwise people wouldn't take me serious. I mean , have you people developed some kidna code the DO's and DON'T's! And why wouldn't you take an unregistered user seriously? Its just not on. Its like your excluding people from the discussions! I mean ~ COME ON! It ain't a big deal, is it? Y'all are reading WAYYYYY TOOOOOOOO much in to this. I would never, EVER get hassle about this type of thing on any other website, apart from The Government for petes sake.

Iight, not hard feelings o.k
Juzz let go!

Melissa
