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.

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.

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. 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.

Morgwen!

Why do you add a "!" to evevryone's name??

Threadmaster(bater) sez he's working as a network admin and comes home at 11 PM and starts posting after 12 PM.

However, seeing his post timings, this looks unlikely - unless he lives in the Azores.

Ppl have speculated before that TM is Vinnie.

PS: How many posts before I can change the "junior member" to something else?

Look! im getting sick of all this childish behavor [sorry about spelling] but its getting out of hand. I told vinnie this as well. If you both just can let your differnces and problems go then you both have some growing up to do {as i reflect on that statment i think of war and how adults can not let things go. so maybe you two should be kids again and let things go. i dont know....} and if you can not let things go then do not invole the world. Thank you morgwen i believe that you will drop this, and i hope vinnie reads this as well. He knows he is a bussiness owner and shouldnt conduct him self in such a manor.. but thats how it is... so i thank you.

I believe the facts are slightly wrong here.  TM's actual words can be seen here: http://www.bearshare.net/forum/showt...&pagenumber=3, posted on November 26, 2001.
The time he posted is irrelevent since everyone sees the time according to their own time zone, and if he posts on his days off then that affects the timing of posts as well.  Anyway, here's a direct quote from the thread:

Then I usually sleep until around 9 a.m., then I take care of the usual family responsibilities an adult has, and then it's off to work again. Is that clear enough? btw... I have Monday & Tuesday off, so it's possible you'll hear more from on those days.
Notice he didn't say he's a network admin, he said IA tech support.  And his posts do reflect certain times of the day that match up with his claimed work schedule, though I can't figure what time zone he's in.

Becker!

I will drop it but only if he apologizes to me... in public...

he started the flame war against me...

I am free... free to tell my opinion...

and I will sure tell my opinion about him...

I cannot drop something I didn´t start... I have nothing to loose...

and he has a company to loose so who is the stupid one?

Becker I know you are not Vinnie, but the day will come that you have to decide between Vinnie/bearshare and your opinion...

bearshare was a product that was supporting worth, but with such a crazy developer... he thinks only about how to make money... but not what the people think about him...

so I think more people will leave bearshare... and I will tell them to go... Vinnie is no supporting worth... and you and the other VIPs should think about it... if you support bearshare you support Vinnie... do you really want to support Vinnie with such behaviors?

And bearshare.net is Vinnie too... I know you are a moderator there and doing a good job... but bearshare.net is censorship too... if Vinnie don´t want to hear something *edit*... do you really think that is the right way? I think all problems must be discussed...

Limewire for example... they made a fault, but they are hearing to the suggestions I made... and they will change a few things in future - yes such developers are supporting worth...

And not Vinnie... you are only a "good" beasharer if you use the spytools and shut up! Bua... I am no bearsharer anymore and I will continue to telling the truth about Vinnie...

Becker I don´t want to fight against you or one of the other VIPs, because I know your feelings... I felt the same a few weeks ago... but the day will come... you will remember my words...

Perhaps its childish from me but he offend me to often and I am no man who forgets fast!

Please, please, please don't mention that name again It lowers the tone of the conversation and causes us to get riled. I'm fed up to the back teeth of this guy's name "yawn" it's enough to make a billygoat puke.

Sorry Morgwen - I'm just fed up with the damn name - can we discuss someone else


Kath!

I am sorry but, the wound is deep... I have to find the right way...

but ignoring Vinnie is not the way I want to go!

you make many good points Morgwen. Im trying to think of a product that i like but the creater is an *******. The only product that i can think of is Windows. We all know Bill gates is not a nice person and a slave driver. But yet the product [usally] is not that bad. Im not sure if its true but hitler created the Volts wagon [dont even tell me thats wrong spelling becuase i know] if he didnt create it he was a part of it no? Once again im not sure if thats true. Either way i really like those kinda cars but i dont support hitler.. you know what i mean?
