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 Limewire Acceleration Patch

Hi,

I have a question about this patch, distributed from http://www.download-boosters.com/

Does anybody use this patch? Does it work? What does it exactly? Are there better alternatives available?

This is no spam topic, I'm just wondering what people think about these kind of 'add-on's' for Limewire.

Default Download Booster

A quote copied directly from the Download Booster's website:
Quote:
Lifetime License

What do we mean by Lifetime License?

You pay for the program only the first time and get all new versions of this program for FREE and for LIFE. It works with is a built-in update system which operates through Internet to automatically upgrade your application to the latest release using a "smart" patch system. All new program releases will include this feature.

How does it work?

When you purchase and install an Download Boosters program, you enter certain information to register online. Using your email address we will inform you about new versions. You will be able to download and install for free all new versions for purchased software. All new versions will have the feature to upgrade online by clicking on an upgrade button. The program connects to our server and checks for a new version. If this is the case, a patch is downloaded and your application is upgraded for free. Friendly isn't it?

What about about the future?

If you purchase a product now, you're entitled for a Lifetime License. It means that you're guaranteed to get free upgrades for life. If we decide to change the terms of the Download Boosters EULA in the future, this will be applied to new licenses only.

What about previously registered users?

All new program releases will include this feature. Each previously registered user will receive a notification and a download URL to get the new program release in an email.
All in all, it sounds too good to be true.

Hmm, so nobody thinks this patch is working.

I'm wondering if someone can tell me if there are working patches alike this one or perhaps an ordinary TCP/IP-booster, should that speed up Limewire?

Also, does Limewire intensively uses it's connections? I mean, if you have 200 connections available, is that significantly better then, let's say 50?

I'll be glad to hear your experiences.

My lack of ability to speak or understand Dutch leads me to ask where you are coming from on these questions, as your website as far as I can see provides the patches or links to them, and is Called Limewire.nl, but is not afaiks, connected officially with limewire.com. Just a little consused and somewhat curious???????

I´m coming with these questions because I´m curious if these programs seem to work (or not). Since no users on our website tell about their experiences, I was wondering if someone on this forum can answer me these questions.

Our website is a Dutch community regarding the Limewire-project providing lots of information but it also contains links to related downloads (you´ve noticed it, good job).
We want to give people information about these downloads (and we´re curious ourselves too).

Default TCP/IP Optimisers

Limewire.nl

It seems the best way to find out about TCP/IP Optimisers is to set up a test bench of some sort, this will require you to invest some resources (manpower, computers, research methodolgy) into this endeavour.

You must understand that since most people now use broadband TCP/IP Optimisers have become redundant so internet users will have very little, if any, experience of using these small software utilities.

Saying that, I use a small optimiser that I was told to use by my ISP, the website, individual settings (MTU, Latency, etc) and anything else that was needed was directed by my ISP.

So, I guess, another alternative is that you should check with your ISP about these optimisers, your ISP should know the best ones and corresponding settings that will give their users the best proformance.

But if you decide to do this on your own you could end up sending your site users to a scam site like Download Booster
