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.

Question can't switch to Ultrapeer

I have the latest version of Gnucleus and I can't get it to switch to Ultrapeer mode.

I have Ultrapeer check enabled and my connection type set to cable. Rebooting didn't help. It seems I'm stuck in Child mode because when I change the # of connections there, it takes immediate affect. What am I missing?

BearShare will run in ultrapeer, no problem.

Is there really a benefit to switching to ultrapeer? I know ultrapeer will use more of your bandwidth, but I'm never read that you'll get better search results or connections when in ultrapeer mode.

that Gnucleus won't run in ultrapeer mode on a Windows 98 or ME computer. From what I've read, an effecient ultrapeer would have to be capable of maintaining 100s of connections, something 98 can't do. BearShare developers are talking about making it more difficult to become an ultrapeer. Too many people are runnning in ultrapeer mode even though their connections can't really handle it.

Hey GregorK, how ya doin'?

For you guys, it might seem a bit lame, but it isn't... start by checking out the Gnucleus 'Manual'.....
The recommendation there of 50KBps minimum UP for operating as an Ultrapeer is REAL MINIMUM...... Broader is better.... If 50 is your limit than that means NO other operations being performed.... i.e. you are not using your machine for anything but acting as Ultrapeer.
In real world practice your UP bandwidth capacity should be even higher... MUCH higher.
If Vinnie and John Marshall and Mike Stokes and others include higher default requirements to be met in order to operate as an Ultrapeer, than they should be respected as leaders doing something extremely positive for Gnutella Network.
Anything which serves to deny inappropriate Ultrapeers is beneficial to all of us.
There is no 'status' implied by acting as an Ultrapeer and it is not something that should ever be encouraged to be tried by those who do not have the minimum adequate resources.

btw, ME will easily handle the 'load' of being an Ultrapeer, but not if it is a typical ME installation with corrupted files and ridiculous IE and Virtual memory settings... Meaning, you must not operate with the M$ defaults, but with what is actually best for your machine.

So, really, we are talking about someone who has a real... REAL Upload capability (expressed in the silly big pretty numbers way) of a clean 512kbps and REALLY short ping time all over the place, not just to some magic address that makes it all look good...... I mean ping times with Australia!
And that is not published 512.... That is REAL 512 that is needed and with no activity - no browsing - no file sharing - Just Ultrapeering! Those who play at being Ultrapeers with lesser resources are helping no one.
Did someone mention Morpheus?

GregorK, have a good long dig through the BearShare Labs forum and you will find several references re: methods of doing exactly what you want... needs two machines obviously..... I will also have a dig and if I come up with some links for you I will for sure pass them on....
Or, just ask Aleixia (sp?) or Sephiroth or Vinnie......

That's the problem, people think they get something special, but they are simply helping the network if they have the bandwidth.
I have seen several people asking why they are not a ultrapeer yet, like it puts them in some sort of supercharger mode.
So much for marketing hype.
