If I'm on the forums, chances are I'm probably at work (I don't surf much when I'm at home or anywhere else other than my work office), and I'm pretty sure most of the other members/mods can relate.
Anyways, my dumb Websense work filter filters out certain words on the address bar that won't allow me to view the page. Words such as "chat," "youtube," "games," and "blog" are the ones it filters. And out of ALL the forums I surf through, Zilvia's Gen chat and off topic chats are the ONLY ones I'm blocked from (sucks, because they are probably the most interesting to me)
I just think we should revert back to when the address of the general chat and off topic chat was just a bunch of random (well not really random, but you know what i mean) characters and such, instead of containing the word "chat" in it.
that way I (as well as others in my same situation) can view the cool threads on Gen Chat and Off topic chat, instead of window shopping the classifieds like I always do. :(
sure, I can go to proxy avoidance sites, but I can't log onto my user name and reply... and theres no fun in that.
