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. |

 Hey, Shareaza is REALLY good indeed. Finally there's a program where I still have some control and where I know what is going on. Shouldnt we open a forum especially for Shareaza too since its a gnutella client?  |

However, what about all the other things that I mentioned? You know.. the things that give you such great search results. Connecting to hundreds of UP's, changing the TTL and expire time to whatever you want, etc. These things are supposed to have limits! That's why no other Gnutella client today (I may be wrong, but no popular ones, anyway) let you change these values. Bearshare and Limewire, will let you change the number of UP's but they have LIMITS. The Bearshare 3.0.0 Betas had unlimited UP's for a long time. Last week, I mentioned in a post on Bearshare.net, how this could harm the network if it was left in upon release, and it was limited to 10 in the next Beta. I guarantee you, if Vinnie would have left the limits out of the release, there would be a hundred people here slamming him. Now, imagine, if you will, a world where Shareaza is the predominant Gnutella client. The average leaf is connected to, oh, let's say 75 Ultrapeers at a time. Now, it may take 10 minutes or so, for newcomers to find an Ultrapeer to connect to, but that's OK, because everyone has "maximum exposure" on the network. Now, I won't try to fool you. I don't know enough about how gnutella works to tell you how changing the TTL and expire time can harm the network, but what I do know, is that they're not supposed to be changed. That's why none of the other clients out there let you edit these values anymore. I'm prety sure it has something to do with flooding the network. Could someone else out there please explain? |

If you sent the value to high and try to send it, most servants will (should?) either change the value or drop the packet. I think a real problem is that it allows large packets to be passed around the network by default. This is really bad for modem users. My experience with this client has not been so good. 1) Plenty of search results but the downloads seem to hang before they get started. 2) Have yet to upload anything after running it for 3 days in ( 1 day in normal mode, 1 in leaf mode and 1 in ultrapeer mode ). 3) Another rather stupid bug is the fact that the client will connect to itself multiple times through the local lookback address (127.0.0.1) if it has that address in its cache. I attached a screenshot if you want a good laugh (72k zip). Look at the packet counts and times you can match the in/out connections  4) If you connect to a number of clients ( around 20 or so ) in normal mode and open the packet monitor then try to change the packet types the program seems to lock up. 5) The program also crashes almost every time I close it. If 3, 4, and 5 were fixed or explained it would be a decent client, but as far as it being better than any other client I would have to disagree. |

| @ Sanelson About this TTL, AFAIK the GDF developers agreed to a highest TTL of 7 because higher values are not reliable but this doens´t mean that higher values harm the net! Please correct me if I am wrong. About the Ultrapeers, I can´t see here a problem either... how should it harm the net if you are connected to hundreds of Ultrapeers (if possible)?
