Forum Rules

Support Forums

Before you post to one of the specific Client Help and Support Conferences in Gnutella Client Forums please look through other threads and Stickies that may answer your questions. Most problems are not new. The Search function is most useful. Also the red Stickies have answers to the most commonly asked questions. (over 90 percent).
If your problem is not resolved by a search of the forums, please take the next step and post in the appropriate forum. There are many members who will be glad to help.
If you are new to the world of file sharing please do not be shy! Everyone was ‘new’ when they first started.

When posting, please include details for:
Your Operating System ....... Your version of your Gnutella Client (* this is important for helping solve problems) ....... Your Internet connection (56K, Cable, DSL) ....... The exact error message, if one pops up
Any other relevant information that you think may help ....... Try to make your post descriptive, specific, and clear so members can quickly and efficiently help you. To aid helpers in solving download/upload problems, LimeWire and Frostwire users must specify whether they are downloading a torrent file or a file from the Gnutella network.
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. Donīt 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 hey

man that thread had so much crap done to it its crazy.

I dont think you were bad mouthing any one. just stating the opionion to be fair because bearshare at one time didnt give the option to not install 3party programs. which is true....

But it doesnt sound like a rant. I havent been watching BS.net to closely for edits. but moving i will do. All the threads in bearshare labs deal with the pro or beta version of the program [chat, crashes, problems...].

unless it was closed at one point in time.. then thats differnt..

Becker,

I know Vinnie has moved it!

The question now is why did he move it?

Threadmaster said it is offtopic... you and some other people say its not...

I think he moved it because he donīt like me, but this is censorship then! Perhaps Mr. Falco wants to comment his stupid action here!

Becker,

how many offtopic posts are in the labs? Should I post some examples? And please tell me how should I reply to a thread that Vinnie made in an other forum?

And please tell me what the word "offtopic" means does it means wrong forum or wrong thread?

It means wrong thread, but the thread was right if the forum was wrong why he didnīt moved the whole thread?

And why are such comments here not OFFTOPIC???

Have a look:

http://www.bearshare.net/forum/showt...0&pagenumber=1

Becker the point is why is my post offtopic and several others are not? Donīt tell me now you donīt have enough time to overview the forums, I saw offtopic discussions in which the mods also posted and this stayed in the labs!

The rules are bend by need!

Default Well

Look Morgwen, as long as you continue to troll BearShare.Net, you aren't going to get a whole lot of respect from me or many other people.

Was your post off topic? Yes.

Did I pay special attention to it because it came from you? Probably.

Have I made off topic posts in the past? Certainly.

The bottom line, is that you are all about promoting your own agenda and trying to start a flame war.

I refuse to participate in it.

And I see this "ON" topic post is still in the original thread...

Hey Vinnie I donīt want respect, I want to say my opinion nothing more... you and your loyal bearshare VIP/user donīt accept other thinking users, I read statemnets like:

If you donīt like bearsahre donīt visit this side!

So only people who agree are allowed to say anything?

And donīt tell me something about post in the right forum, your loyal users post daily off topic in the labs and NOBODY moves it, so start to follow your own rules...

Morgwen
