NewCliche21 Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 I don't get it. I just don't get it. Friday it was working. Today it's blocked. No ES at work anymore. The shivers. The shakes. The hallunications. How do I cope with it? How do I pass the time in between assignments without :doh: -ing anything that twa says (love ya, and whether or not that offends you is irrelevant )? What about China's "I search out the weirdest articles possible" posts? What the hell am I supposed to do all day on my downtime?! This sucks for me; I can't imagine how heartbroken you all must feel. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattFancy Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 If ES was ever blocked for me at work I'd prolly quit on the spot. ES is how I get through the work day. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bostic Hog Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Get a decent phone and play on ES through the phone. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Now you might actually get work done :pfft: A lot of my work is dependent on other people following through who usually don't have a good history of following through, hence why they're working with me. A lot of waiting for phone calls and such. Get a decent phone and play on ES through the phone. Droid X on Thursday, but I can't imagine typing my rants on that thing.

TD_washingtonredskins Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Maybe they think it's porn...oh, and keeping up via smart phone is easier than you think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NewCliche21 Posted July 13, 2010 Author Share Posted July 13, 2010 Maybe they think it's porn...oh, and keeping up via smart phone is easier than you think. Hmm, I'll try that. The signal sucks, but it's better than nothing. They actually block it under mimesweeper as sports-related, so at least they got THAT right. Very annoying, though.

authentic Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Maybe they think it's porn.... funny, but you make a valid point. A few years back my buddy used my comp. to do some work and when he saw extremeskins in the browser, he was taken back, thinking it was porn. Then i had to explain to him that it was a Redskins message board. lol Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wvuskinsfan Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 i used to go nuts when it was blocked at my old job, the other boards i went to were not. But ES was due to some multimedia BS the filter said. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr. Sinister Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Luckily my boss is a Skins fan,and is definitely on here, along with one of my coworkers, so I'm safe. I can't imagine how I'd keep my sanity without logging on to ES though. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gbear Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 They added to our filter yesterday afternoon to block any thing message board. It's a shame, but it looks like my decade of following extremeskins at work will come to an end :-( Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
drums and skins Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 Yea, what about a web proxy site like hidemyass.com ? Try it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ned Flanders Posted July 13, 2010 Share Posted July 13, 2010 There are ways to get passed filters. Not if I'm your Network Engineer! We block all proxy servers, and we use a pretty friggin sweet appliance to do it ($40k box) Don't try to circumvent the filters, because if your IT group is worth a lick, they will catch you.... Of course, Extremeskins is allowed where I work, because I maintain the filter DB! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
