They've blocked out all games sites at my work. Now what am I going to do?? Does anyone know a backdoor way to the gaming-age forums or something?

The firewall doesn't see this as a games site. Spong as well, but what use is that?

None at all... that stinks.

Someone out there must have come up with a safe, easy way to bypass this sort of thing.

How about doing work?

That image is from Homestar Runner. It was from the preview for a game called Peasant's Quest.
My old school used to have game sites blocked too. They also did a lot of pointless site blocking. (You weren't allowed to search on Google for terms such as president, democrat, and republican... aren't political words somewhat school-related?)

Actually, the guy in the pink shirt is the head of Videlectrix, which is a "company" that programs the games for H*R. Come to think of it, I think he's the only member of the Videlectrix company. Heh. Well anyway, they not only create games for the H*R site but also make a good deal of original games unrelated to H*R for themselves as well.
Check out their site: http://www.videlectrix.com/videlectrix_catalog.html

Well, it became very difficult to do school reports with the computer when we weren't allowed to go to political and financial websites. :hmm:

If I were you I would have ask the teacher and maybe even get the rest of the class together and complain. Thats either a error ,some good reason or not so good reason.

Uhh... search around and see if any gaming websites escaped it? Like smaller ones or something?

gamesarefun... but I really want access to the gaming-age forums, where most of the newest news and stuff is posted. :(

Sorry, I don't know much about getting around blocked sites.
Sometimes you get the scorpion.
