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.

Unhappy Im frustrated! Can u help?

I have been using LimeWire for a few months and it has worked just fine,then about a month ago it has basically stopped working.Once in a great while I might be able to download but it takes forever.Right around the time it stopped working,we got a router,it worked the same as usual for about 3 days then it started having problems.I have XP and I just installed sp2,I was also told to add an exception in my windows firewall and that didnt work,I have the free version of avg anti virus and was told to add an exception for that but it said to do it right through windows firewall,I also have ad aware and i dont see anyway to change that,I made some changes with the port thing on my router and still am having problems,LimeWire wont stay connected and I cant download,it will start going anywhere between 10 kbs up to 38kbs then drop to 0and stay there.Any ideas?Maybe I have done something wrong,I am not very computer smart,so if anyone can help I would appreciate it.I miss my LimeWire.Oh yeah,other computers in the house are not having a problem most of the time,but once in awhile they start messing up like mine.

Ok Trisha, I had this same problem before. The first time i installed it and used it I started having problems after awhile so I uninstalled limewire then reinstalled it. If that doesnt work then you might need to check your memory. Sometimes certain programs need a certain amount of memory to run.

Let me know how you make out with it.

I have uninstalled and reinstalled and I actually had to do a factory reset and reinstall everything on my pc,I lost 2,754 songs from limewire in doing it.That is one thing I was instructed to do by hp support for a different matter.I have 128.00MB of Physical Memory and 13.09MB of Available Physical Memory. I dont know what any of this means.I know I dont have much installed on my pc.

This Means.
You need more Ram if your only runing with 128 chip than you have no more ram to run your pc at full speed and if your runing Windows XP Sp2 than that it self take's over 128Mb of ram so you need to get your self some more ram.
You can find them at staples or Newegg.com or Best Buy A little tip if you are going to get your self more ram i would take it with you to what ever place you get ram from so you get the right one because if you dont get the right one is screws up your video and your computer will not work.the chip's go from 256 at 60$ 512 chip At 80-100$ 1Gb chip at 100-150$. most computers have three ram slots you can go cheap and get two 256 and put two more in that will give you 640mb or 512 and that will also give you the same if you keep that 128 chip you got.
