Members need to supply these details >>> System details - help us to help you (click on blue link)


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 i vote no!

on the all inclusive network block.
i have had people from all over the world up-load from me. (and chatted with some)i'm quite sure i've down-loaded from around the world.
i don't have a problem with different networks? sharing.
more = faster.
i'm happy with the OPTION to block individuals. i just wish there was a universal list of them! then i could block them all!!!

(1) when are we ALL going to take responsibility for our actions?? hmm? we all know viruses & such are out there, you can either get rid of your computer or grow up and realize there ARE bad things in the world. why don't you attack the J*** A** that puts the virus there?, instead of L W.
even if you only got one song off L W, you ought to be grateful. i am!

p.s. 'course, i'm on basic, what do i know?

Atta Boy me d, But you do realize you just said one of the dirtiest words in the world (Responsibility) Because if we all took responsibility for our own actions who could we blame when something goes wrong. Ouch that might heart if we had to say that was my fault.

Well ya know how it is when you are getting older then the forum server slows down to a snails pace. I just couldn't seem to remember if I had pushed the dam reply button. Guess I had but you just had to notice.

And I am getting ready to break something it is time for the quarterly reformat and re install. So for about the next 4 or 5 hrs if I am lucky I am going to be cussing, yelling, cussing, throwing, breaking, then fixing.

Default no phex

i un-installed phex. not too keen on patronization.
i realize alot of us are genuine "pups" but to talk to someone, trying to learn, like they are children is not cool. then the explanations are not easy to follow. maybe if they had limewire format??? hmmm...silly me, you did say it wasn't for newbies.

i D L 1 song last night just to find the shared folder. my spyware came up and told me there was a danger & they couldn't delete the file. i deleted it, without opening. never did see where it went! all the songs are at least 1,000,000 bytes? what the hey is that? if i have to "bitzi" every song from phex, i'll go to the store. i'm gonna try L W on the other user today. btw videos are on hold for now.
p.s. speaking of pictures, that just got bumped again, i have a new toy to play with. MP3 player.

Default but i AM an idiot newbie!lol

perception is a son-of-a-b****, my bad. i ASSumed it was all-american. it's hard to get used to this WORLDLY thing.

all the songs i searched for, (many) are formatted as 1 to 4 million size. i don't know if that's bits or bytes. not like L W, normal size songs are 1,000 to 11,000 kb. i did try searching by size, still came up by millions. first song virus, was prob an omen. "get off this program!" anyway too old to have to think that hard.

i did set up L W on the other user. saturday i ran both at the same time all day. slows down U L alot tho. i started with normal (T1) settings. 9 U P on music, 5 U L on the video side. also D L a 4 disc album (63 songs) for myself. D L wasn't affected by speed. only D L from one side.

mp3 player for B'day is fantastic. it changes alot of file ext automatically. just drag & drop! most of MY stuff is mp3 & wma. but D L's are a mixture. very easy to use, thus far.

p.s. b'friend's B'day same as mine. his present is still trying to get here. 62" HD Sony. bet that will make him feel better!
