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-instating an incomplete file. I didn't notice until it was too late that LW will delete an incomplete after 7 days (unless you change the setting, which I have now done). I had a movie downloaded up to 94% and it has disappeared off LW. It is still in my incomplete files folder in VLC, how do I get it back into LW to complete the download ? Does that makes sense ? If you need clarification, just ask. Cheers, Aussie  |

| Yes it makes sense. I have my 'days to keep incompletes' set to 999 days I think it is. Go to LW's Library, select the incomplete folder, find the file in question & press the Resume button. This will force it back into the download window. |

| Hi, newbie here I am afraid !!!!! My limewire encountered "an internal error" and had to close. I had the same problem, when restarting it said my incomplete downloads could not be re-loaded. They are showing in the incomplete folder in windows and they are showing that some of them have almost downloaded (only a couple of meg to go). I found them in my library tab and clicked resume, but they appear to have started from the beginning again, even though some of them were virtually finished  This means that I have used a lot of my monthly limit  Can I get them to start from where they left off ????? |

| If you are using LW version 4.12.6 then yes they will start from where they left off. But if you have an earlier version, then unfortunately the answer is no. |

| I'm just about ready to give up on Limewire altogether as it's been doing som really weird sh*t lately & it's really pissing me off. Got home from work today, thinking yeah gonna finish downloading this & then get onto this other one. I get home & LW tells me I don't have an internet connection when I clearly do... secondly ALL my incomplete files are now completely gone from the library.  I had maybe 35 things incomplete (I start & then stop them just to store them in my incomplete folder for downloading later) .... ALL gone.Any thoughts ? Would a system restore be an option ? I'm not the most computer literate. Or would some other option be appropriate, appreciate any advice guys. |

| I tried to system restore (to 3 previous dates) and it wouldn't. However in restarting my PC I now have a strong connection according to LW. I still have the problem of ALL my incomplete files going awol . A lot of them were over 75% complete so that's a lot of time AND MB's wasted. If there is any way to get them back it'd be appreciated. I've checked the recycle bin to no avail & also done a system search on a couple of titles also to avail. WTF happened ?? |

| If you changed the days to keep incomplete files to more than 7 then this should definitely apply to new downloads. Also see Downlds refuse to reload (click on link). But with LW 4.12.6 they will continue from where they left off. |

| The way to find out is to search for one of those you deleted. Then see if there's a ripped shred of paper icon next to it. Try downlidng it again & see what happens. I believe the answer to your question is in part, yes. But it will start from scratch if you deleted the original incomplete file.  |
