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. |

| Re: Blocking older versions... Why not go all out and block other clients, too? Then you can change your username to Vinnie. It astounds me that people care so much about the options provided to other users, all while failing to provide any sound reasons for doing so. Edit: fixed BBcode italics; replaced the word "users" for "clients" in the last sentence for clarity. |

| I can honestly say that I don't understand why Grandpa would say something like that. The reason I'm sticking with 4.9.28 is because every time I update to a newer version it uses up a lot of my CPU and I definetly know it's not the computer because everything on it is up to date. |

In the end, the files are still available, it's just about people that want to be... anonymous heroes in front of the common users that use only the main 4 functions of limewire - search - browse - download - share Will this stop smart and really interested individuals from browse hosting you in other ways? of course not... but I think it stops 90% of the regular users from browsing what you share, while still letting you share... If you have rare content you want to share... well, then allow browse hosting, this won't affect you in anyway.... |

| @Gubatron Good to see you haven't abandoned this thread  .Also nice to see someone who understands what is actually being discussed here, even if it is the thread's originator. I'm getting close to posting a request at www.bountycounty.org for someone to add this feature. Fifty bucks should be sufficient, as it's not that difficult. I'm certain that LimeWire would add the feature once over half the network started using the modified client and nothing bad happened to the G-net. Edit:Anyone remember when XoloX came out? Several months of every other client complaining about how bad multisource downloads were for gnutella, while they worked on their own implementation. Strangely, once their clients supported multisource, their complaints died down. Last edited by NodeNomad; January 19th, 2006 at 02:34 PM. |

| XoloX, getting off topic a little. These are interesting links: 1. Main site & versions, 2. Gnutella timeline, 3. Gnutella history wiki, 4. XoloX wiki XoloX was closed source. Last link was interesting. I see it's development closed down as did the XoloX section on these forums. BTW downlding from Shareaza (RAZA) users (most people know what I mean ... generally 0.1 -> 2 KB/s for large files) is a typical example of why having multi-net clients doesn't work very well. One or more of the nets get sacrificed. If they only connected to one at a time, then fine. Last edited by Lord of the Rings; January 21st, 2006 at 07:50 AM. |

 I do like to browse those who seem to have the same interest in files that i have the same interest. i think those who do not let you browse are insecure about what they have to share. i do not share personal photos or personal info just mostly Sothern Gospel Music of which i have over 7800 files but now i am blocked by a QUOTE:" A LEAF NODE SHEILDED BY AN ULTRA PEER HENCE YOU WILL SEE FEW OR NO SEARCHES IN THE MONITOR WINDOW" END OF QUOTE: what is a "leaf node or ultra peer" and who gives them any governing sanction over me or what i have to share?

| it's an antichristian conspiracy... Leaf nodes are run by Satanists who are out to silence the Lord's good word, brother. Seriously, UltraPeers are the core of the network. People with fast internet connections and generous souls allow LimeWire to run in UltraPeer mode so other clients can connect in Leaf mode. Ultrapeers do much of the heavy duty work of routing searches. Since you are connected as a Leaf node, you don't route searches, and that's you're not liable to see many of them in the search monitor window. This does not prevent you from sharing anything. It only means you can't see what other people are searching for. If you're curious, here it is: porn sex mp3 sex photoshop keygen sex animal sex britney spears sex There, just read it over and over again and it's just like reading the search monitor. Thanks for bumping this thread, even though your post was completely off topic. |
