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.

Hi Mag63

Your back

You know, if it was just your CDs you heard crackles and pops from I would say that they were recorded into the CDs you were playing. But as you hear crackles and pops in everything then your sound card has developed a fault, you have to replace it (they're cheap enough).

Hi Mags

No water threats for me 'coz I live in London and we have the flood barriers, so no problems here apart from the miserable summer.

Mind you, those people that have been flooded out tend to live besides rivers and/or in known floodplains. So there is no real surprise when in some years that "beautiful sparkling river" you bought your house next to becomes a huge torrant of dirty water, mud and debris.

But saying all that, the government has been promising better flood defences for years but still they did nothing, now the floods have damaged thousands of homes. I guess our government better get its act together or there will be a political backlash.

Hiya !

Hmmm... aside from a lotta crap about a country that has not created a single NEW reservoir since the 1930's ("Hose-pipe Ban" in England ??????? What, it no rain dere no more ?) and has don fug all to the Victorian perfect drainage system in over 100 years....

Well, anyway... the REAL problem re: sound for you...

I hope you have not already spent any money on a new card until you have done NUMEROUS Defragmentation Runs on your HDD !

You did not ever mention the details of your problem and exactly what type of music, i.e. CDA or mp3 or whatever, was giving you the probs !

If CDAs will play but not saved compressed files on your HDD, than it is quite likely that you need... I mean NEED... to defragment your Hard Disc Drive(s).

The application DISKEEPER beats anything I have ever seen or used... for years now !

Have I missed something here about your problem ? It's the comment about Voice Mail that throws me, but it could still be a defrag prob as that message may be on your HDD from the install of the prog and not necessarily something coming to you via your Internet link, hmmm ?

Anyway, you have to always be doing Defragmentation so no loss, right ?

Hello Ursula

No haven't spent any money on a new card but I was looking at what brands and prices were available..

The problem was anything that came through the speakers had crackles + pops but no I didn't try a CDA (I will in a min).

Defrag Mmmm I normally use Diskkeeper Lite and only of recently have been using a 60 day trial of Vopt8, coincidence??

Well I just tried a CD and still the same and the defrag..
When I receive emails I have a custom sound file tell me a new email has just came in, yes it's on my HHD..

Also your idea on the defrag was free to try...

Thanks Mark..
