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.

there needs to be a way to group the results of a music search into the album it came from so that it can be easier to download an entire album with out scrolling through hundreds of songs and playing some sort of guessing game trying to piece together the album.

I would like a 'feature' ... to remain in Limewire, but be able to 'promote' new acquisitions and/or media purchases to "shareable" without leaving LimeWire (or waiting until no one was accessing the shared files in order to do a 'refresh'). I have had 23 different accesses to files at one time, but could not add a couple of dozen new songs because 'refresh' temporarily disconnects anyone transfering files when the refresh is started. (I have enough 90+% complete downloads that never seem to be able to be completed, so do not wish anyone else to be cut off, close to completion of a transfer).

I'd like the ability to mask my IP address. I dislike having my real IP show up on someone else's Monitor screen or Browse Host tab to enable them to find me. I'd like instead to be able to have a user name or other info show up. It wouldn't stop anyone from browsing my files, but it would short-circuit anyone's ability to log my IP. To me, this is a very big privacy and security breach.

There's no real true technique. Proxies at best. But everywhere you go on the internet you leave your ip footprints. Every site you visit whilst browsing can record it.

in the big picture, those that want your IP would be able to get it even if it wasn't obviously displayed...unless as LOTR noted you use a socks5 proxy...

Not sure if it's available, but I would like to somehow have the option to disable or restrict some of the search. Either via a setting or password protected by a valid administrator. I can find practically anything with LW, but I do not want my child to get full access to it. I only want him to find things such as documents and music. No programs, images or videos.

I limewire installed on one PC, but would like to install it on a second PC which is mostly used by my son and I don't want him having full access to the search in limewire. I would also like to restrict my copy just in case he's using it.

Default Re-Search

Ok, I got a good one.... I'm sure I am the only one that ever thought of it.... are you ready.... We need a "Re-Search" timer. Ok, let me be more specific, we sit there behind our computers and click the "get more results" tab, over and over. But, we could change that with a "re-search" timer. You could set it to find more results every 5,10,20,30 minutes or even every 2-5-10 hours. This would keep your results coming in, which I think that we can all agree that there is nothing more painful than searching for a few hours for that certain file, finding it, downloading it, and then finding out that the file is mis-titled or wrong.... and then you have to start searching again. If your computer continued to update and search for your specific file as different users come and go throughout the day.

Wow! that is a great idea!!! Take care everyone!!!
