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 Language issue on installing

Some of the Title headings on Limewire changed to an unrecognizable language for no reason. I tried to change language back to English but even the description beside the US flag is in some other language. I deleted & downloaded again but at first startup attempt the language is messed up and I cannot change. It seems to just be on this machine which is running Vista as I can load the very same limewire file on my other computer with no issues. HELP!!!

Of course if the language is set to another language, then those languages in the language menu will show that particular language's version of the language. Just choose the Flag that represents your language. View menu or 'usually' the 2nd menu from the left side of LW program (first menu is usually File menu.) Then choose the drop down menu for the flag of choice.

I have the same problem but it seems to persist.
When i install it i choose "french", it won't install in french and even if i go in the program and choose the "change language" and put it in french it won't be in french, the inscriptions are in a language that i don't even know what it is, so what's the problem (

Did you install english version Java or french? I'm not sure that would make any difference since the differences are probably only in the install instructions.

After changing Language in LW, you must restart LW. Close the LW program & re-open. Make sure you are opening the LW program & not continually opening the installer instead by mistake. ie: Start menu -> All Programs -> LimeWire -> LW.

Oh ... you 'might' need to have french fonts, etc. installed on your computer system also.

Thank you for answering me, and i think i did'nt explain quit well my problem.
See, when i install i choose FRENCH, and then i go back in the program to change AGAIN to put it in french but IT DOES'NT WORK, it's alwals in this bizarre language
I've had LW for a long long time in my pc, and never had probel, but recentyl i han trojan problems that i think came from LW, the only way i found at that time to have LW in french was to make a system restauration, but since 2 weeks it came back, my LW won't be in french. My boyfriend has LW in his computer but his is okay, no problem, so that's why is say that maybe there still is something left from the trojan in my computer....
I i could show you an image of my LW so that you could understand what i mean, maybe somebody would be able to help me.
You see, i can't download anything cause it's never written in french even if i choose the french language, and even if the canada's fly is in the left down corner of LW
And i can even tell you, that after i flushed LW and all of it's component from my computer, i went directyl to LW site to download it again and it's not better, so i really don't know what's going on, and what to do...

Have you tried the french flag one?

I think perhaps best thing to do then is delete the LW preferences folder.
Try deleting your LW Preferences folder whilst LW is closed; instructions here: Point #2 & 3 in Fixes for Limewire (sample image included at bottom of page.)

If using Vista, see http://www.gnutellaforums.com/genera...der-vista.html

So thanks again for trying to help me, maybe that thing was the only problem, i'll go right now to try LW to see if it works okay

Thanks again and have a nice day
