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.

Angry XoloX Nonsense

Trouble, trouble. Downloaded 1.22 build 263, total waste of time and HDD space. Ripped it out, and replaced it with 1.22 build 272. No change. Endless fatal errors, no downloads, and literally millions of bytes, as in well over 12,000,000 (yep, that's Millions), downloaded and uploaded with no obvious destination on my machine, and no clue as to what was uploaded and where it went. Somebody successfully uploaded a file from me, which of course they are welcome to, but nothing but frustration , and, well, NOTHING for me.

What's going on? I already know what's not going on, and that's Xolox!!!!

That is caused by your computer forwarding network traffic (searches, results, ect.). Most people experiance about 5k/s, but it can bet much higher, especially when you are sending alot of stuff connecting to hosts. I am not supprized that you found a large number, because that can add up very quickly.

Thanks for responding. I have a real-time internet monitor, and the download/upload speeds are in the 10.5 to 12.75 Kb/s range, which is much higher than usual. The issue here is that I'm not getting any results, ie, music. One item I'm trying for is the Beatles' Sgt Pepper's album, which has been locked in at 2% for four whole days now. Also I get errors that cause XoloX to terminate every time I try to use it, as well as a Runtime error on startup (syntax) each and every time I start up. Do you know if the folks who run XoloX are following the Microsoft Business Paradigm? That is to say they release something that sort of works, and relies on the general public to finish up their beta testing? It sure seems so.

Some of those problems just have to do with other people's computers and stuff. My impression is that Xolox is a kinda a "work in progress".

"....work in progress." That makes sense. Again, thank you for replying. I guess I'll just have to stick with it for awhile. I think I'll abort all my other searches for now, and just try for one thing at a time, and see how that goes (or doesn't).
BTW, I just got an email from Audiogalaxy (with whom I was signed up with for a time); they're renaming themselves, I forget what just now, and giving away the first two weeks for free, $10 a month (I think) thereafter.

Interesting bit of information. But if you look at the number of freeloaders you can really tell that most people do not feel that they have a moral obligation to give as well as take, so why would those people want to pay for acess to what they can get anyway. (unless they really like stuff that could only be found with a central server...)

I have noticed some people will pay money instead of with ads...

All too true... it is a theme since we humans started writing things down that there's always somebody trying to get over. I'm primarily trying to replace stuff I had as a kid on LP, so I truly believe I've already paid the royalty fees on the things I'm trying to get ahold of. Am I right about this, or am I justifying ripping off folks who were an integral part of my upbringing? As an example, in Beatleland, I bought Rubber Soul and Revolver each on LP, cassette and CD, so I feel that I paid the royalties three times, so trying to download Sgt Pepper's and Magical Mystery Tour (only LP and cassette), is not stealing from people who, although not technically 'friends' in the formal sense, were and are welcome guests in my home. I know we've drifted far afield, but it's an interesting point.

I'm not really conserned about royalties. (What? You thing that those actresses won't starve anymore if they get more money?) I'm just annoyed with people who sit on the network, sapping it's resources, and do not give anything in return.

This is getting off topic... mabye this thread could be moved to the rants forum...

Way off topic!! I was getting really frustrated with the service, and you let me know that I wasn't a lost voice in the electronic wilderness, so thanks a bunch. I'll go back to making this work out, and let you get on to other things. Like, ciao for now....
