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.

Exclamation Upload Log history

As I have well over 25,000 packages for daily access via Limewire I have a real need for a permanent Upload Log History report. Format is not critical, just common sense info will suffice. Can you help?

Lightbulb Search and Logging Requests

I've been a Limewire Pro user for about 3 years and there's a few things that I'd really like to see in the next version.

1) SEARCH - Boolean search criteria in a single search tab; AND, OR, NOR

2) SEARCH - Logging of files that have been downloaded that tracks even if the downloaded file is no longer present in the library pool. Along with this, the ability to go into the log and remove items to re-download them.

3) SEARCH - Ability to save and load a group of search tabs, often searches run for days or weeks waiting for that elusive file to reappear

4) SEARCH - Link the search function with the download, so that a search automatically kicks any matching awaiting files in the download window to attempt a reconnect.

5) DOWNLOAD - In the download window, ability to filter the display of the download window so that if I'm looking for all the awaiting files with a specific name, I can easily find them.

6) DOWNLOAD - Ability to prioritize items in the download window by putting this priority in a header (like Filename, Speed, etc) so that I can sort the download window by priority.

Implementing all of this would certainly make Limewire worth paying for another upgrade.

Thank you.

Feanor

Especially this!

I never want to download one of those iPod ads or kp ever again.

Currently, I keep harmless junk files from the "What's New" searches in the UNshared dl folder. However, this workaround doesn't solve the kp problem.

Although only about 1 in 1,000 pics turns out to be kp, I'd rather NEVER ever have one of those files on my drive again.

So, FEANOR's suggestion would be a very welcome addition.

Well my fellow Cyberians, if nothing else, it seems we are on the same page, so to speak. I'm pretty sure we will be left to our own devices when it comes to solving anything. Most of what we seek has been on one wish list or another since the very beginning. Now I could be wrong, but it seems to me that the engine already performs most if not all of the abstract functions, just not necessarily on the specific data field(s) we want the function to process. Tell ya what, and I'm making no promices, but I'm gonna pull down the source code and developer kit and see if maybe some light weight Limewire Data Base "toolkit" can be tinkered together. Stief - Could you elaborate on that a bit. Just how does one identify a "harmless junk file"? I've had some pretty ugly **** jump out of Zip files that had been in the system for quite some time but remained undetected(able) until unzip. Either way, tell me more. FI) must you take and hold the entire file/or will a virtual "placeholder suffice?

re harmless junk file--I'm on a mac, so the stuff that jumps out of zips hasn't affected me yet this millenium

The junk I'm talking about are .jpgs, mostly ads, or really bad porn with someones web site printed all over it. Too, there are the default pictures sets that seem to come with many computers and are shared by many people.

Good luck bolting together a patch: maybe there is even a bounty for it: check http://www.limewire.org/wiki/index.php?title=Bounties and maybe you can cash in

Spam links during results should also be removed. Also open P2P is neccessary and what i mean by this is once when you connect to the network you have to automatically share files and no firewall blocking to preven downloads either.
