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.

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.

| thanks that link really helped at least now i know if it's the correct copy or not, as before i had to wait for them to download cause i cant preview them. Just need help on one other thing, i said before that i was deleting the episodes after i found out they were the wrong ones but others are still downloading them from me, obviously they dont know how to check if it's a good copy or not! At least i'm not the only one that hasn't a clue. I've tried everything to search for these files incase they were saved else where but i cant find them. i didn't think it was possible for people to download from me if i didn't have the files anymore. Is this right? |

| Correct. If you see uploads occurring in your monitor window, then you must still have the files somewhere. Otherwise, you would see the message 'file not found' whenever someone tries to download a file that you just deleted. The easiest way to access files is this: go into your Limewire library and find the file in question. Select it and click 'Explore' in bottom left of screen. The folder that contains the file will now open. If you can't find the file that way, try using your computer's search function. By the way, what do you mean you can't preview files? I would recommend disabling the Limewire player if you have not done so. Tools...options...player and uncheck 'Use Limewire Player'. Then, all of your previews will be shown on the default player for that type of file. Try VLC player if you like...it's free and will play most file types. If you still are having no luck, you can always try going into your 'incomplete' folder and manually opening files from there. Not all files are easily previewed, as you may not download it in order. But, if you use Bitzi as WW suggested, there will be little reason for you to preview files (unless you have dial-up and it takes a long time to DL a video). Best of luck  Dano |

| muhctekdano, thanks for your advice, what i meant about not being able to preview the downloads is that i had to wait untill they were fully downloaded before i could play them, but like you said thanks to wondering why i dont need to be able to preview them!! it's great!!! but i did what you suggested even thought i have no idea what it meant! with the files that people are downloading from me that i've deleted, as far as i can tell there not anywhere in my library, and i have checked using the computer search and nothing is coming up for them so i'm at a bit of a loss as to where they are, but as you said people cant download from me if i've deleted them (properly) so they have to be some where, i'll just have to keep on looking. thanks samantha. |

| If you deleted them from your limewire library they would be gone...You are probably still seeing the uploaders as they where there before you deleted the files... Try shutting LW down and they should be gone.... Just to be sure though try your computers search function and type the file name in.... If you would ever like to preview a file whilst downloading get the WMP codecs as VLC wont preview in earlier versions of LW... This is a good codec pack.... http://www.xpcodecpack.com/

| wondering why thanks very much shutting the computer down worked they are all gone now!! the link you gave me about the codec i went into it and clicked to download it it came up in my folders but when i tried to open it a warning came up: compressed (zipped) folders warning, This application may depend on other compressed files in this folder. For the Application to run properly it is recommended that you first extract all files. ?????? ( this didn't actually appear, just to show how confused i am) firstly i have no idea what a compressed zipped folder is, or what it means to extract all the files, i know it recommends to do it, but in all honesty you could recommend me to jump off a cliff and i'd proberly do it!!! Do i extract all, Run or Cancel?? sorry to bother you AGAIN thanks samantha. by the way how's the cat? |

| A compressed Zip folder just means that there are a number of files placed inside the folder and there all squished in lol... You usually need WinZip or something like that to open them up and unsquish them... When you select download, a window will pop up, select the save option, once it's downloaded and saved try the run option, I think that should do it  ....I can't remember what I did it was that long ago... The cat didn't make it, she had such severe injuries she had to be put down, she was 12 years old the poor thing  ....Needless to say the dog responsible has been shipped off to a farm, I also told my neighbour that I will be her witness if she wants to take the matter further...
