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.

Default morpheus sucks

hello
1. morpheus CONTAINS spyware
2. morpheus is a clone of gnucleus (which is acutally better), www.gnucleus.net
3. morpheus is not open source, which means they want to make money with it and so its understandable that it contains spyware and ads..

thanks

The Morpheus Preview Edition certainly is open source. By using the Gnucleus source, they are bound by the GNU Public License to make it open source. While the Morpheus code may not be available for download on their site (they're not obliged to post it for download), they must provide it to you if requested to do so. Besides, at one point, they actually DID post the code for download... I have a copy of it msyelf.

As for the inclusion of spyware, there's nothing saying that the program is no longer open source just because it includes spyware.

Default They may put spyware BUT

they should post the source code of everything, spyware included. Since they didn't, they violated the GPL.

Nope. My understanding of the GPL (and someone can correct me if I'm wrong) is that nobody is required to release the source for anything that isn't statically linked into the program. The spyware, being a seperate DLL, isn't statically linked to the Morpheus client. So Morpheus is still in compliance with the GPL even by not releasing the code for the spyware.

Default Re: Re: morpheus sucks

well,

when i posted this, i havent read much trough this forum.
i think morpheus with its recent client is ok.
its friendly to all other clients and everybody is free to choose gnucleus, which has no spyware and no ads.
by the way, now there are really more files available with all the morpheus users.
i think bearshare and limewire are a bigger problem. this "blocking" from them causes a blocking on the openp2p side and nobody is happy.
so what are other possibilities?
1. everybody stops blocking, which would be great, but i personally think its too late
2. creating 2 subnets, which i think isnt very good for the end user, cause one big net offers more files.
3. create a new network which is only opensource, which would be cool, but if we are realistic has no real chance of becoming aa major file-sharing-platform for all the "normal" users who only care the amount of files.

so, for me, i'll watch this until a decission in there, and until then, i'll use gnucleus and qtella.
If this conflict isnt gonna work out i'll switch to audiogalaxy

this is sad, because gnutella is really great. now with its ultrapeers, which will come soon to all clients, it could be really powerful.
But i disagree using a client, which destroys the other ones.
there should be enough room for both, and i think bearshare is making enough money with the current amount of clients.
But there is nothing one can do.
the "normal" user, who uses gnutella and tries out all clients will realise that bearshare offers the most, even if its freeloading from the others.
so he uses bearshare.....many peaople will do this.
and then i think bearshare will leave gnutella and turn to another network, leaving gnutella back with a less size

but perhaps i'm wrong

thanks

Karl Napf

Personally I think Bearshare couldn't seperate from the Gnutella network. Regardless of the number of users Bearshare has, I still don't think they have enough to make their own viable network. Likewise, I don't think that the Gnutella network would be a completely viable network without Bearshare users. So, at this moment, I think the Gnutella network and Bearshare both need each other.

well, i think youre 100% right when you say that gnutella and earshare need each other - in the moment.
but i COULD be, that the users switch over to bearshare because they get more files.
And then, why not leave the gnutella network?
i really dont think this will happen...but it could, and i thinh something like this has to be stopped.

by the way..i heard you're coding a client in VB.
is it possible for me to see the sourcecode cause i wanna learn something and the popular clients are all in c or too complicated for me :-)

thanks

It's true that it could happen. I just think it's highly improbable.

That's right.

Unfortunately, at the moment, other than my data conversion module, I only have bits and pieces completed. I've been jumping around a lot within the project lately... First working on the GUI one day, then working on the back end stuff (Gnutella protocol stuff, database stuff, etc.) another. Also a lot of what I've been doing in the past couple weeks has been experimentation with VB to make sure it can do what I want it to do (I haven't used some of this stuff within VB before... like the Winsock control for instance). But, it's coming together somewhat quickly though, and I'll let you know when I have something substantial to show you.
