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. |

 Request to remove a feature and add one or two Would you pleez stop the Linux-version of LimeWire from making preview copies of incomplete files, when trying to preview them? Linux (unlike other OSs) can handle more than one program accessing one file at the same time. And there is still another request to add a feature. I don't use netscape 4.7 anymore. How about letting the more or less educated linux-user choose his own viewers for different mime-types? You really should consider letting the user modify a lot more options in a handy config-file. For example, mime-types, extensions of files to share, not to scan the id3-tag of every mp3-file (that's why I won't share my 10000 music files - it takes LimeWire about 10 minutes to scan them and the more files it has scanned, the slower it becomes). One should also be able to choose his standard browser, and to allocate certain amounts of bandwidth for connections (When I'm uploading something, my connections keep failing, if I have many connections, my ups and downs are becoming quite slow, although I'm using dsl). Do you consider implementing some advanced features like giving a download/upload priority over others, - or an option to introduce a min. speed of a download (or it would be cancelled, for some downloads freeze at 0k/s and even 1k/s is not exactly what I want, when downloading divx-movies). Maybe displaying some pretty useless infos about how far the host I'm receiving a search-result from is away from me (in hops) and whether or not it would accept connections. Did I forget something? Oh yes, - would you allow bigger gnutella.net files with about 10,000 hosts? You know there are ISPs who seem to be blocking gnutella hostscaches and I used to LimeWire connect to the gnutella-net using gnut, which had such a big hosts-file, when I couldn't connect to any of the hostcaches (which is not the case anymore). Maybe you could even improve the resume-download feature by completely grouping the search-results according to file size and resuming any file, that would have the same file size when complete? Of all my mp3s I don't think I have two with exactly the same file size and even if so, - there could be a 'to resume or not to resume' dialog/option - could it not? Well I'm sure I can still think of some features to bother you with... How about doing automatically new searches for a file when the download fails? Sometimes LimeWire keeps running for days unattended and the network's available resources change a lot during that time. And how about reading the search results passing through my servant and comparing them to my own active searches. I'd also like to have an automatically-clear-inactive-downloads-option. Of course swarming would be a great feature, but I guess you already read that. Perhaps you could implement a sub routine to cook tea. If I have any further ideas I promise I won't hesitate to tell you over and over again.  |
