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. |

 Apres Router-changing Browsing After installing router I mentioned not being able to browse, see above for problem fix, it has left me unable to browse myself thru 'direct connect' Then I came across my own address in a search yesterday,but find I cant browse my address, does this mean that no one else can either? I was priding myself on having some good uncommon files, or not so popular ones,but now realise if I cant be browsed,like a lot of others it seems, this must limit the choices and the network?? and what is the point of having a good collection if it cant be seen ??? I realise (Or do I ) that if someone is looking for a particular file and 'Searches' for it, will it show in searches even tho you can't be browsed.( presumably all files available are logged somewhere)oops,excuse bad typing,does this 'browsing' matter? Remain puzzled on this one,especially as before router everything working.Again short of knowledge not of questions !! So if I have a new file to limewire,but you cant browse me, will you know its there or not ?? Newbee2

If you select Direct Connect type search & your ip is listed, then that in itself suggests you don't have a firewall issue. That is the ip you would give someone else to direct connect to you. |

 Thanks LOTR, I presume I dont have FW issues,apart from the fact that I cant be browsed, can you answer this,There are many hosts that you can't browse,presumably behind FWalls? I also presume that I can't be browsed(because I can no longer browse myself, and I came across my address in a search,clicked browse and couldn't)If therefore I have say a new to LWire file,which i put in my 'Share' folder,if no one can browse me, then presumably LWire will not 'See' the file???or are ALL files in ALL shared folders logged somewhere?Does this limit the network? Thanks for help, sorry it's more than one question(Again) PS Still cant resume incompletes,resuming eating my own head instead ! Newbee 2

| LW 4.12.6+ should resume incompletes but perhaps not if you updated afterward the problem of incomplete resuming started. Reading your question is like trying to read back some of my answers. lol  If someone browses you then it is a type of search. Go to LW's Library window, select one of your shared folders. Then look to the right under Hits & Upload columns as those ones count. Hits are those files that have been seen in searches, Uploads are those that have been attempted to be uploaded. When you share a folder & are connected to Gnutella then it will automatically create hashes for each file (may take some time for each file depending on its size), & be available to be searched on the gnutella network. If unsure, press the Refresh button which re-accounts for all of LW's shared files & folders. The refresh button should not be used too often though. Doing such can affect uploaders & also affect people's search results, & also use more than necessary resources for LW. It starts shared files from zero & recounts/re-adds them. |

| No once the downld prefs sense a corruption then it is as is. Need to start from scratch in such cases. Going back to an earlier version is one of the ways of corrupting "all" of your incomplete files. No I'd suggest starting such files from scratch. So it takes a little longer. At least you'll get them. It happens to many of us I assure you. We learn from our mistakes. lol At least with your new downloads with LW 4.12.6 onward you won't need to stress about resuming. |
