fuck off Gator, just saw the news.

Come out of your cave more often. Also you didnt tell machete to fuck off. So fuck off to you.

have not ever talked to machete, I have talked to you on previous posts and did not think you were so trite. Way to go :thumbsup

How could you not know?

...i don't know, I thought Gator and me were cool

They should not have been running that prostitution ring. That was not cool.

We were until NOW. YOU started this.

Liability for copyright infringements. Now shut down. Damage of infringements to be decided in January...

This is interesting, there are other software and developers that can be targeted same way as Limewire.

bullshit man, I am not "neg repping", which is fucking gay, btw. :321GFY
Your a douchebag, were breaking up. I am probably one of the most decent/honest webmasters on this fucking board. You can take that neg rep and shove it up your ass.

An injunction issued by the US district court in New York has effectively shut down LimeWire, one of the internet's biggest file-sharing sites.

It ends four years of wrangling between the privately-owned Lime Group and the Recording Industry Association of America (RIAA).

The injunction compels Lime Group to disable its searching, downloading, uploading and file trading features.

The firm plans to launch new services that adhere to copyright laws soon.

Visitors to the LimeWire website are confronted with a legal notice that reads: "This is an offical notice that LimeWire is under a court ordered injunction to stop distributing and supporting its file-sharing software."

It adds that "downloading or sharing copyrighted content without authorisation is illegal".

The RIAA told the AP news agency that it was pleased by the judge's decision.

"It will start to unwind the massive piracy machine that LimeWire... used to enrich themselves immensely," said RIAA spokesman Jonathan Lamy.

LimeGroup appeared to acknowledge defeat.

"We are out of the file-sharing business, but you can make it known that other aspects of our business remain ongoing," Lime Group spokeswoman Tiffany Guarnaccia told AP.

The firm is working on developing new software that will adhere to copyright laws.

Good.

I hope they shut down every file sharing network. Broke asses need to start BUYING shit again.

Neg repped myself for clicking this thread...

You are really getting your panties in bunch over nothing.

:1orglaugh

Well I'm sorry if I am coming off as crass, but I really don't understand the "rep" thing. Maybe someone won't like something I post and my fucking house blows up or something. ...I gotta quit smoking so much weed, blah.

i read in another thread someone thought limewire was small...

just to put things into perspective, think about how long limewire's been running and how many installs have gone down, now if you look at their current alexa rank of 2000-3000 they are a huge company with millions of users still...well not anymore.

I gave you a pos rep to balance it lol

thank you, i appreciate it Roger

Oh no, not Limewire! How will I download porn in the year 1999 now?
