Bluh, the school's internet provider just blocked the MSPA and Minecraft forums.

- Like?

Those were two of my major lurking grounds during free periods. I'm starting to run out of places to pass the time when I'm not working. :(

Gah, they got the Steam forums too. I get the feeling they've been keeping a closer eye on web usage than I thought.

Edit: Kongregate as well.

Edit 2: And the Black Mesa website. Have they been specifically targeting sites I frequent during school hours? I have a suspicion that the only reason Digi is still here is because it got blocked once in the past but then got lifted. Could just be that I don't frequent Digi much at school too.

Dinosaur comics probably isn't blocked.

Oh dear lord they got Dinosaur Comics too. And all of these websites have been classified as 'Web Chat', which makes me suspect they just bulk blocked them all at once.

Looks like they got the Wurm Online forums as well, which is odd since I've only ever visited that a couple of times on the school network.

Edit: There goes the Dwarf Fortress site too.

Edit 2: @DarkBlueAce: Haven't heard of that site personally, but it's blocked just the same under 'proxy anonymizer'.

Use a proxy and disable the monitoring software you faggot. *crag* the police.

Trouble is most if not all of the proxies I know of are already blocked. I did consider setting up a tunnel through my home network once, but I'm not sure if it would work through the school system.

subscribe to a service that emails you new ones erryday, try ultrasurf or proxifier

the problem with that is my school and most others block just about every email provider, worst part is i got to a tech academy so it's hard to get away with stuff, unless you put a firewall up blocking the ICC client program that the teachers put up so they cannot monitor/control your computer via remote acess.

Dear god you actually browse that?

Not an awful lot, but when I've run out of things to do during my free periods I occasionally lurk a couple of boards there.

E-mail Minecraft to yourself if not every e-mail provider is blocked

Why not Chip's Challenge, the greatest game ever made.
