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 My Limewire Pro is missing!

Ok... On Dec. 5, 2003, I paid for Limewire Pro. I have had no problem up to now. It disappeared. I no longer have Limewire Pro and I can't figure out why this has happened. For support, I entered my email address I used to purchase LimeWire PRO: and received the message: "You email address is not a valid LimeWire PRO email. Try again with a different email address"

I know that my email address is the one I used to pay for Limewire Pro. I have the original email from Limewire showing how I could "complete my registration, please visit this url:". I went to that site, entered my email address once again, and again, it replies that my email address is not valid.

How can I resolve this problem?

Thankyou

When you buy LW Pro from the official site www.limewire.com (was this where you went to purchase Pro? You could've been redirected to the official site for download after paying a scammer...it happens) you're covered for free updates & email support for 6 months.

After 6 months you have the option to buy again at a reduced price. Your Pro's is way out of date.

Who did you actually pay for Pro & did you buy some 'lifetime membership' thing?

Hi Birdy:
I'm mistaken on the year I began LW Pro. It was Dec. 5, 2005. The payment was directed to: Lime Wire LLC. Do the free updates and email support come through the email address I signed up with? If so, I had not received any. It was just within the last month that Pro seemed to have disappeared from my LimeWire. I was under the impression that this was a one time payment and if we chose to receive the updates and email support, we were to pay a fee. Since I never receiver neither, I never payed attention to the blurb about paying a reduced price.
So, you are saying that a person has to continually pay LimeWire every 6 months to receive Pro?
Thankyou for your reply.

If you buy Pro & want updates, you have to check with the LW site to see if updates are available & then download them.

Email support is available if & when it's needed during the 6 month period by going to
http://www.limewire.com/english/content/support.shtml
& clicking the 'get support by email' link.

It's up to the user to save & back up their Pro installers (just as you would for other programs, in case the computer crashes etc)...once you've downloaded a Pro installer & saved it it's yours to use forever if you like
But...after the 6 months has elapsed you'll no longer be able to download free Pro updates. If you decline the offer of the new subscription at a discount, you'll have to buy Pro all over again if you decide you want to update later.

So it is a one time payment, but you pay once for any installers you might download & any support you might get during the 6 month period.

Where do you lot get your downloads from then, any good mirror sites?
By the way, anyone here give their address when paying by card. I mean you know what we do once we download it so, do you think it's a good idea if you want the Pro version?

What do you mean it "disapeared"? The shortcut is gone? Or that it's no longer even installed?

Try doing a search for LimeWire.exe and click on it to see if it works. If it does....

To recreate a shortcut in Windows the default folder is C:\Program Files\LimeWire

If you find it, right click and choose MAKE SHORTCUT. It will be created in the same folder. Right click on it and choose SEND TO then DESKTOP
