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.

If the files are labelled that way, then nobody in their right mind would downld them. It's not as though they're mislabelled. (Sorry you can't post ip's on the forum ... it's against forum rules. We need to be consistent.)

Keep in mind Quality of Content on the Network

As Only A Hobo suggested, if they're sharing kiddie porn then you can report it. Depending upon your country & which country they're from as to who you report it to. But be sure it's kiddie porn & not just porn. Sharing porn is not illegal per se but depends upon local & national laws, & isp rules.

When you go to report anything like this please consider-

On default settings you share files as you download them. This means that the person you are about to report has not even finished downloading the file yet and might have no idea what's on it. Someone else might report you, while you were downloading; they downloaded off you, and so on..........

Miss clicked a download, could happen. Asleep at the moment but will be horrified tomorrow when downloads are checked and the file is found.

I think the only way you could be sure is if you browsed host and saw a pile of these types of files.

lol yea thats kinda a backfire beause you have to relize that if you are sharing music and stuff through limewire a lot of times it may be illegal and to report you have to know its child porn which means you have to download it which means if the authorities desired they could look at the dowload history of your ISP and see that you downloaded the child porn and bust you on it too.

Default Best porn filter

The best porn filter is the downloader. Before you download just look at the title of the object. They are a mile wide using every porn term in the book to catch searches who may use one of the words. If you don't double click on their site you will not get the stuff in your computer. When you brouse into some hosts site and see Hanzel & Grettle eat more than the gingebread house you don't have to download it. It is obvious that it is not one of Kate Smith's songs. Perhaps you should avoid that Host altgether in the future. After all why would you want to associate yourself with the porn king of Columbia just to get a rare song..??

If I am downloading a video I sample it and close the D/L if it is offensive before I wait an hour and have it on my computer.

Ok here's an idea... Someone hire a really good hacker and hack these sick *******'s computers and fry their hard drive seeing you can get any users IP address. I have downloaded some porn where the filename was mislabeled and I couldn't delete it fast enough! Feels like my hard drive has been infected!

To all you sick pedo's sharing your filth!

such lack of imagination (and its been done already..)

how about this: said ûberhacker instead locks their system down in a manner that totally prevents the owner of the machine from logging back on...call the local authorities, inform them of the infraction, and give them the directions as to how to unlock the computer (yeah, there's an 'easy' way to circumvent this, but I bet most ppl wouldn't be up it)...

pff that idea seems umm fatally ignorant.....umm the big problem would be umm hireing a hacker? thats kinda farfetched......plus no matter what was on their hard drives a hacker whipes it and they get cought, they'd get like 8 years in prisin because someone doesnt wanna see kiddy porn on a p2p program.

I dunno I think the best way to solve it is just not download it or them putting in like a filter where you can filter out certain words form search results.
