After school, before gaming club started (board games), me and my "friend" decided to go on the school computers for 15 minutes. So I tell him "Check out this site, www.64digits.com," and he says "Yeah, but I'd rather play games," and so he goes to a flash game site. The librarian catches him, tells him he's not allowed to play games, and he closes the window. The librarian then asks him for the web address so that she can block it. And so he types in "www.64digits.com." I tried my best to explain that this was NOT a flash game site, it's not one of those games sites, it's a site for programmers, and therefore has educational content. So, she asks him to write down the url on a slip of paper after he was very forcefull about not typing the site in the browser (he was just quiet), and so he wrote down addictinggames, which is already blocked by the school filter. I'd imagine that the tech guys won't be pleased with that, and if the librarian remembers 64digits, she won't even bother to check it out, the link labeled "games" will probably make this an instant addition to the banned list, 'cause they can't be bothered to look at what this site really is (programmers). So, in that case, I'm screwed. I come here every day in my free time at school, and it serves as my file host for school projects when I need it. I will be so freaking pissed if it gets blocked >:( I have no other good host >:( and, since I can't burn CDs on school comps, I won't be able to transfer anything, which means all my files, including new music I make, will be gone when they wipe the hard drives. GAH!
stfu mastermind… mr pacman is correct… learn position 23
Ha, my college has set aside a little harddrive space on the network for every student at the school, so I put Mario 3, Zelda, and Zelda 2 on it, along with an unregistered copy of GM to supplement the registed copy on my home computer. You high schoolers are the mercy of the School-stapo!
LOL I used to remote connect to my home comp to get past the filters… thats ownage… Plus I could update my torrents ^_^
what the fuck are people doing playing games at school… u go there to learn not fuck around! Know wonder the educational system is in the shitter!
Um the librarian has no control of the filter. Schools usually contract companies such as 8e6 to do that for them.
were not even allowd on the intenet at school (i have a multimedia class)
Teachers liking 64digits = Awesome.
If the site does get blocked, I can send your librarian an e-mail about what the site is, if you want. =PAwesome =D I havent been able to test it today, I was at a chess tournament.
Shork: Yes, we have HD space assigned to us on the network, as wellMaxcore: No, she'll give the address to the tech guys, and they'll add it into the filter.
