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 Members assigned titles

Just curious to the new forum members assigned titles. I was going through the members list and I noticed that new members are Junior members until 30 post. They then become Members until 99 post they are then Senior Members until somewhere around 900? from there they appear to be Registered users. What is the significance of this new title if any

Those are just the defaults in vBulletin. They don't have any significance.

Green means online, grey means offline. Red means online in invisible mode.

BTW some changes may be permanent, some may be trial.

And being invisible mode was there before in the previous vBulletin version, but it wasn't as obvious & easily found as it is now.

Hmm I'm not sure about red being online in invsible mode. I mean .. the idea is that no one knows your online, and if you have a red thingy beside you it defeats the object of the exercise ... also ..I was a red button before I switched to invisible ..just became a green one for a while 24 hours ago...

Never mind .... more importantly. Are images going to be shown automatically. I have enabled them but they do not show up .. I'm thinking particularly of the iTunes thread you mentioned yesterday... (can't find the thread lol)

So there really isn't an invisible mode. If you show as red when using it.

To me you both are red. Red faced I mean. lol Well perhaps I'm wrong about my assumption, but that is the way it seemed. I haven't had time to check up on all the specific icons & other things as of yet.

As for the images, we're working on it. One idea is to keep it the way it is but have thumbnails. But we're presently working on getting the thumbnails working. It could take a week or more. One advantage of doing it this way is hopefully it will take people less time to load up pages. They only need to downld what images apply to them. It will hopefully also mean less strain on the server without having to display them everytime someone loads the page.

We still have some fine tuning to deal with.

The Lord moves in mysterious ways. The rest of us are bound to run round chasing or tales

I did switch back to visible mode just now and went green.. I'm back as invisible now ..and red ..so I guess it just shows yourself that you are invisible.

Oh and btw ... I have recieved a database error for the second time this evening ..trying to post this .. hope it doesn't post over and over
