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. |

 LimeWire 1.9b beta LimeWire has released the beta version of LimeWire 1.9b, available at: http://www.limewire.com/index.jsp/download_beta This is primarily a maintenance release, although it includes important improvements over the LimeWire 1.9 beta. The changes include: <ul> <li>Significant performance improvements, both in terms of CPU and memory. <li>Prevents spurious disconnects from UltraPeers after conducting searches that return a lot of results. <li>Ads in non-Windows versions! Seriously, they are there. Don't worry too much, though -- we did the ads ourselves, so they're a bit less annoying than the Windows ones. If you click on the Amazon link to do late Christmas shopping, a portion of the proceeds goes to support LimeWire and the open source project. <li>Minor bugs fixes with swarm downloading. <li>Improved logic for grouping similar results for swarm downloading and smart downloading. <li>Improved the UltraPeer election process, so you will not get elected as an UltraPeer if you are a modem user. <li>As many of you have noticed, we are having problems with the Linux and Solaris installers. The betas for both versions will be delayed until Monday. </ul> The most important change is really in performance. You should see significant performance improvements, especially as an UltraPeer, over the previous version. Thanks very much for everyone's feedback on 1.9. Your assistance has been invaluable, and we have fixed many bugs in this version that we likely would not have found without the help of all you forum readers out there! |

| The source code is at limewire.org. Compiling should not be a problem... That's what I'll do, since I can't stand Ads. |

| I downloaded beta 1.9b and installed it. The installation went fine. But then I tried to launch Limewire and I got a fatal error on my Mac OS Classic. The Following is the error. java.lang.NullPointerException at javax.swing.ImageIcon.<init>(ImageIcon.java:106) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.NonWindowsCBanner.getIm ageResource(NonWindowsCBanner.java:135) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.NonWindowsCBanner.acces s$600(NonWindowsCBanner.java:18) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.NonWindowsCBanner$Image URLPair.getImage(NonWindowsCBanner.java:221) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.NonWindowsCBanner$Image URLPair.access$200(NonWindowsCBanner.java:191) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.NonWindowsCBanner.<init >(NonWindowsCBanner.java:60) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.StatusLine.<init>(Statu sLine.java:98) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.MainFrame.<init>(MainFr ame.java:140) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUIMediator.<init>(GUIM ediator.java:115) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUIMediator.instance(GU IMediator.java:230) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.MessageService.displayE rror(MessageService.java:218) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.MessageService.showInte rnalError(MessageService.java:144) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.GUIMediator.showInterna lError(GUIMediator.java:1001) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.Initializer.initialize( Initializer.java:137) at com.limegroup.gnutella.gui.Main.main(Main.java:17) at com.zerog.lax.LAX.launch(Compiled Code) at com.zerog.lax.LAX.main(Unknown Source) at com.apple.mrj.JManager.JMStaticMethodDispatcher.ru n(JMAWTContextImpl.java) at java.lang.Thread.run(Thread.java) |

| 1) As you might know DSL-users can't upload at a higher speed than ~16k/s. The new bandwidth limitation option does not allow setting a speed below ~20k/s for Cable/DSL users. Could you please introduce seperate settings for cable and dsl users, so dsl-users can limit their upload speed, too? Without upload limit the connections keep failing and the downloads become very slow. 2) Although I disconnected from the network, LimeWire reconnects after a while for no apparent reason. Why is that? |

| Adam Fisk here -- I don't have my password, so I can't log in. We are aware of the problems with the installers and with the error on the Mac. I have committed the fix to the main line of the source code, but I won't be able to make it into the office to rebuild the installers until tomorrow. Unfortunately, I think that only the Windows one works now. Our apologies for the frustration -- we were really pushing to finish everything up yesterday, and didn't have a chance to do proper testing. The installer should be all set for tomorrow, though. Kath -- it would be great if you could send me the error messages you received to afisk@limepeer.com. Thanks very much. Anti-Bearshare -- I don't even have ssh set up here, so I can't even post the new code. If you've set stuff up at limewire.org, the code on the main line should be stable now. If not, I will be posting everything tomorrow. Thanks. |

| Adam here again. As far as the DSL issue, we will likely add an option in the Advanced section or something like that to enable you to set your speed more precisely, but we won't get to this for a little while. It's would definitely be nice. As far as the re-connecting issue goes, are you seeing this fairly consistently? I have not seen this happen since we cleaned up some of the connecting code, but I don't doubt that it could still occur. Are there specific circumstances where you're seeing this? I'll have a look at that section of the code regardless. Thanks. |

| One last thing- If anyone has any interesting ideas for groups to advertise, don't hesitate to let us know. We control all of the ads on non-Windows versions, so we'd like to put up ones that everyone would be interested in -- more like nicely integrated ads into a magazine. I'm thinking along the lines of interesting (lesser-known?) music/cultural magazines, so we could share revenue on subscriptions, something like that. This route should make the ads work better for everyone -- more interesting (even useful?) ads for you guys, which should translate into more money for us to keep everything moving forward strongly over here.
