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.

lol I also have an aussie flag option on my computer. I presume that includes a combination of both UK & US spellings.

I believe the same is true for many countries around the world. Even in african countries there can be multiple languages spoken in that country as african countries are not divided by language or culture. Also with asian countries you get great variations of the official language (which is usually that of the capital city.) You get hill tribes who speak very differently ... arguably not even dialects in some cases. Look at China ... you have over 50 accepted minority groups with their own dialects & in fact there's more that have not been officially recognised by the Chinese government. Same applies to Thai or Vietnamese. I had great problems understanding southern vietnamese but when I went to the north, it was like a breath of fresh air. I could not only understand them clearly but they could understand me without problems. But then in the middle of Nam they speak quite differently. They also have their hill-tribes as does Thailand & indonesia, philippines, etc. Philippines has multiple languages for example spoken by large %'s of the population. Even Japan has multiple dialects. Those in Nthn Japan have problems understanding those in the central (around old capital), south or particularly those in the minor islands.

What I want to know is what makes any country or culture think they own a language. The British got English from German decent according to Wiki http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/English_language . So by LauMars definition of who claims English, it should be the German Flag not the Union Jack. But who really cares I live in the US. I speak English, and the English I speak is right for me. The way I spell it is correct to me. (some of the time I am not the best at spelling or grammar) I really don't care if I spell it differently or use different pronunciation. Allot of the world has English as a required subject in school. And most of them that were not influenced by British occupation are using the US English. Languages evolve and change new words are made for new things and they will continue to change. Sorry but I do not believe the English language belongs to the British or anybody. I stick by my other post that LimeWire was developed in the US thus the US Flag by the English language is proper. I also believe that if it was developed in the UK the British Flag would be appropriate.

English is the main world business language. But it's certainly not the most abundant. Look at India & chinese languages combined & you have probably almost 2/3 of the world's population. (My calculations might be a little out but I'm sure I'm not too far off!)

English ... a conglomerate of many sources both from centuries past & of present influences. So who (which country) is the recognised official language of english? Where did the Oxford dictionary come from. Where did pidgin english come from. There's lots of it in New Guinea. lol How about we all speak Pidgin english. After all, pidgin english is a combination of the local & english languages. And how many pidgin english languages are there out here? How many variations of english speech & spelling are there out there. So how about we call it pidgin english & have a flag of a pidgeon on a dinner plate or in a fox's mouth? Or image of Pidgeon droppings below where the pidgins sit on the flag pole. (umm ... I think I'm starting to stray somehow. whoops! ... english is what we get wherever it comes from ... ever tried reading an english translation of a manual made in China or ... how about aboriginal english. Not sure if any of you saw the postings not so long ago in the FrostWire section of such a young lad. Lives just a handlful of hours drive away. It was his country after all! We're just passing thru hopefully .. or renting it on lease! Midnight Oil!)

That's why I want Esperanto to become the world's main second language.
It's far easier, and you can't go as wrong with it as with english.
