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 Range Unavailable ?

Hi there

Just a wee question.

When I look at the monitor tab I can see the people uploading from me. I just noticed that some say "Range Unavailable".

Anyone know what that means and if I can help them in some way.

I did try to search for an answer but I think I have worn out the search thingy and it's having the weeked off !

I have a wireless ADSL connection with my Ports Forwarded. No Firewall showing and bug reports are all "True".

Cheers Guys

Really missing the search thingy I hope someone at Limewire kisses it better soon !

Sorry I didn't notice if it was Bearshare users or not and it seems to have stopped coming up.

Thanks for the input.

Hi there

It's back !

It's on lots of uploads from Limewire, Bearshare, Sharaza & Morph 500.

It's a different file too so it's not that.

the plot thickens !

Hi there

It's me trashed not the PC !........ I had to save the screenshot as a jpeg, Tried to attach it but it was too big a file.

Paint wont crop piccys so had to download a programme to crop it.

Cropped piccy too big still.

To inset an image on the page you need to send it to your web page first.

Tried to find my web space with NTL but can't see anything on the NTL site thats clear on where to access it.

After all that I poured a large Baileys


Points for trying though !

You might want to give FastStone a try for screen shots it has a built in editor in it for cropping and resizing. It works very good and it is free.

Hmm I don't ever recall having seen that before in my 4+ yrs of using LW. But just a few days ago, I upgraded from Mac OSX 10.3.9 to 10.4.4 & whilst last year I rarely had my firewall turned on, I now have it turned on with extra options of ... Block UDP Traffic & Enable Stealth Mode, whilst having port 6346 clear for LW. Also I am manually port forwarded thru my D-Link router.

I admit I haven't used LW much on my mac over the past 7 weeks. But tonight I opened it & noticed the same error of : "Range Unavailable" for people trying to join my queue for uploads from me in my monitor window. These people would very quickly show up at the top of the list & then drop off. Which suggests it's because they're unable to join the queue. BTW I only have a 256/64 connection. I tested it tonight whilst LW was open & uploading & whilst spending a few mins trying to load a page on the forum & I still got a 58 kbps "real speed" result from a speed test which is surprising considering. So I generally only have one person uploading from me. Sometimes two if I'm not browsing (hey I was on dial up only 16 mths ago. lol)

But back to the point. Sometimes the no. would grow up to 6 or so with this status. Sometimes just a couple. I was wondering at 1st whether it was related to my firewall settings. Despite my bug test show 'True' for incoming. I was also wondering if it was a new phenomena, so I searched the forum before posting & found this recent thread. I also found this: Problems downloading (Phex but not directly related other than what it hints at being unreachable) & Stief's reference to it here LimeWire 3.7.8 Beta

BTW I also found this 416 response, even though ranges overlap

I've heard from others attempting to direct connect to me that I generally only show 2 stars connection quality. That in itself may figure in this. But I'm just not sure why I haven't seen or can't remember having seen this before when it's happening to me at present at such a frequent & consistent rate.

Sample below is the top of the upload pane of the Monitor window:

BTW the LW versions on the Range Unavailable ranged between versions 4.1.x to 4.10.5 & also Bearshare. It seemed one of the BS actually managed to get onto the queue. BS Lite version whereas the BS Pro couldn't at my temporary observations.

But Bearshare lite & other BS's 4 & 5 are on the queue as are Foxy & Morhpheus 500 5.x & other LW users.

I wonder if it has anything to do with having OOB searching enabled/disabled. I am not quite sure as to what OOB searching actually does
