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. |

Just purchased PRO - Now it's been cancelled. I bought PRO a few days ago using PayPal at the official LimeWire site. I used it today and thought this looks strange - it's asking me to upgrade to PRO. How can I upgrade when I'm already supposed to have it. I went to the support pages, typed in my email and got a page which told me my email was invalid. I then went to the upgrades page and was told my account has been cancelled. Why is this? |

Did you receive your email from customer support with a link to your personal downld page? How much did you pay for LW? LW costs US $18.88 See http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1 |

DJ Something about your post seems wrong because it reads like you went to a scam site and got conned and, because you are not getting any response from them, you have found your way here. If I am right then it is time for a little education: Every person that ever went to a scam site, and got ripped off (and there have been plenty probably numbering into the hundreds of thousands), thought they were buying LW Pro from the official site. Instead all they got for their money, from the scammers, was a URL link to LW Basic which is free (and freely available) from here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml DJ, you have probably (more than likely) been ripped off by a scam site, specially set up to con people, because you thought you were dealing with a legitimate company, since the advert seemed so convincing. The scammers count on the fact that now you have LW Basic you will blame LW for your misfortune when in fact they, the scammers, have your money. To confirm this, check your credit card statement to see where your money went and if you paid more that $18.88 then LW did not get your money the scammers did. That's why you can no longer contact them because all they want is your money. You will need to contact your credit card company and tell them you have been the victim of fraud and, as most CCs have anti-fraud protection, you should get your money back.

Thank you for your reply posts. The site I went to was: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/home.shtml I then followed the "Get It Now" link to: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml Then I clicked on "Get PRO" : http://www.limewire.com/english/cont...stionpro.shtml I then came to a question page concerning infringement/copyright etc. I checked the appropriate buttons and was forwarded to the following secure page: https://www.limewire.com/sales/engli...ms/buypro.html Because I am in Australia I used PayPal as my payment option. I paid $18.88 using my balance. The payment was made to: Name: Lime Wire LLC (The recipient of this payment is Verified) Email: contribution@limewire.com I was then forwarded to my personal download page where I downloaded what I thought was PRO (I was sent to a page where I could access customer support etc) I then installed the Java Update etc... I then installed LimeWire on my PC and left it for a few days until I went to use it. When I tried to log into customer support it says my account was cancelled and my email address is invalid. Now, please do not tell me I was duped. |

Everything you did seems right DJ Sorry, I can't fault what you did because it seems you did everything right. Try emailing this address: service@limewire.com You should get a response and, hopefully, get your problem sorted out. UK Bob |
