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.

Default Starting Incompletes from scratch!aarrgghh

Having become resigned to re-searching all my old incompletes, which wont download!!(After many trials etc..) I've noticed a couple of things(Annoyances) Firstly I don't seem to be able to use 'Advanced Search' from incomplete library, also when you click search on an old incomplete file the file starts with the letter t (lower case) is there a reason for this? second and more important ,when you do a search this way nothing comes up but a whole load of fake files and no genuine sources?? so does the letter interfere with search? is this feature ''Search'' from incomplete a total waste of time?? seems i will have to type in title of each one in search bar? is this fake file thing new? or has the search from incompletes always been useless?(Or more politely,not very good)

"all" incompletes start with T-
If you're trying to resume fakes, then of course you're not going to get any results. Personally I would delete such fake files when I was sure they were fake listings.

Unhappy incompetes,fakes,searches,state of the universe etc..

Thanks, now i know t is for temp. does it intefere with searches, second, I.m trying to do searches for partially downloaded files,not fakes, as far as I can tell, part downloaded files which for many reasons won't resume, thanks for previous info, is it possible that some or most of these files are now corrupted and LWire wont recognise them, that this corruption interferes with the search???? or is the ''Hash'' still valid? ie are these ''click'' searches now a waste of time(No real results just fakes) and only answer to type in one by one as an original search and delete partials, and hope i can find them again? Pretty unlikely to find them at this rate!! ie havnt found any yet.Again many thanks u guys for outstanding patience(Most of the time !)

not sure I understand you re: "I.m trying to do searches for partially downloaded files"..an incomplete is an incomplete...all you will ever get is an incomplete...it is impossible to start the download of an incomplete file and end up getting the full file as your download 'manager' only sees the original command to download said incomplete file...you might even end up with an incomplete of an incomplete!

as far as your situation, the best you can do is to try and force resume your incompletes and hope they do something...

Hello,

I am not sure any of this, do you mean u can not resume, find sources? or what?
Or when resuming it starts from 0% ?

To my knowledge , there is no fix for the 0% downloading, or i dont know the trick to resume, terrible and painful.
(somebody tell me there is a way to resume , please)

As for searching for sources for your file that is busy downloading, normally when u do a search for the file name while the download is pending in the download window, as dsoon as your search finds fles you are after, thwen your download should actually say 'downloading...' or queued if the person has limited upload threads.
