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. |

| There is no lifetime membership with the official LW. I'd recommend cancelling the transaction thru your card company asap. The real LW can be obtained here: http://www.limewire.com/english/content/download.shtml I think you should see this: http://www.gnutellaforums.com/showth...5&pagenumber=1 Where did you get it from? Can you find it here: Known Scam Sites I would recommend you try out the FREE version 1st. If you like it, then consider getting LW Pro. BTW Video codecs can be obtained for FREE. See CODECs list and alternate players for Movies So in other words you've been badly scammed.   Last edited by Lord of the Rings; August 1st, 2005 at 02:16 AM. |

| Fully check out the site before using your card online. Try to ensure you are purchasing from the "official" site of whatever it is you're after. It means some homework-research but it means protection & confidence for yourself. ukbobboy01 is probably a good person to ask about safety measures you should go through. It might be worth sending him a pm for advice. I too am reluctant to use my card online. Good luck with cancelling the transaction. At least in our country there are departments within the banks/credit co. that deal with these types of issues. So specify to them that it was a "scam"! I reiterate, stick to the free version for now to ensure you can use it successfully & like using it. The differences between the free or basic version & pro are only subtle. |

| How to Shop Online. Hi Kayllene Sorry for your bad experience but you should not let that put you off from shopping online, I get most of what I own from shopping on the internet, e.g. weekly groceries, CDs, DVDs, books, furniture, computer peripherals, household goods and the list goes on. However, I do take certain precautions before I deal with a company for the first time; for example, I insure that my first order is a small one - no more than £5.00 (that is less than $10.00). If they deliver as promised then I know the company can be trusted but if they do not deliver then I have not lost much. If I want a bigger item, like a DVD player, I talk to the company and ask questions about the product, i.e. specifications, is stock available, delivery times, etc. Again, if they know what they are talking about, based on my research about the actual product, then they get my business. If, however, they do not seem to know much or are evasive then they get nothing. Always buy using a credit card, not your bank account, because most cards have an anti-fraud facility and guarantee the item you buy if it is over a certain amount, in the UK it's £100.00. In addition, in the UK, there is a consumer company called "Which" that looks into and reviews consumer products. "Which" guarantees that any internet company that carries its logo is an ethical company. I would imagine that there must be an equivalent company in the US (as well as Australia and Canada). So look out for internet companies that are sanctioned by your equivalent of "Which". Most big high street companies/stores have internet sites; they are usually safe to place orders with, along with big internet only companies like Amazon.com. Finally, do not get tricked into buying something that is labelled as “free” because if it is truly free then they will not want your credit card or payment details. Kayllene, there is no substitute for common sense, remember to keep your wits about you and if you see something that seems too good to be true then it probably is, leave it alone. UK Bob |

| re scam I Think I was lucky this time as they only got the $52.00 out of my credit card. I did ring the fraud department and report it and cancelled my credit card.. I have learnt a very good lesson.And yes next time do my home work instead of diving straight in.I would love to say it wont happen again if I spend the time to do the research and check the origianal sites out instead of going like a bull at the gate! Thanks guys for all your help and advice very much appeciated kayllene |
