I-Mockery.com blocked by school computers.

[liquidstatik]

I'm not too sure why they block the website and keep the boards unblocked. But does anybody else have a problem with yer workplace/school blocking i-mockery.com?

[FartinMowler]

I work from home

I'm the Network Admin, so I get to decide what is blocked for everyone. :D

[Matt Harty]

Yeah, by this thing called symantech. I guess the geeky kids got to it or something because it's gone now.

Good, set I-Mockery as the defaults homepage for all the computers on the network.

We have websense, which blocks category's. For example, when you make a site, and enter a category for it, (ex. entertainment) if a network blocks that category, all sites under it are blocked. I-mockery is blocked at my school, because of the category "tasteless". The forums still stay open because I'm guessing they have a category such as "forums" or something.

I thought it was strange, I-Mockery itself is blocked at school, but the board isn't. Different domain, I know, but still strange.

I think that's because it's a forum and not an actual 'website'. I know with a few other sites that are blocked the forums remain unblocked. :/

I got the tasteless humor thing too when I tried to go to .com during school. But I can go to .net no problem.

[Supafly345]

Me and the italian scuicide bomber can access .com from school. Although its not a highschool.

I-Mockery is blocked at my work, and so is my site... then again, all of Geocities is blocked, too... it's not censorship, though. Since I work at a software company, they've got a lot of really important stuff on the computers, and a virus could shut everything down for days, so they've cranked up the security on everything.

Oddly enough, these boards aren't blocked.

I can Go to any place i want on the comps at my school I Mean anywhare From I-Mockery.COM to Porn sites
(probably also explains why our network crashes every 3 days)

[Zomboid]

I remember going to it from school before and it working, but I think it was also blocked once or twice from a different computer on the network :/

[SMN]

y'know, I used to be able to go to .com at school, but untill this year around november. I think it's one of the freshmen's fault. Because my school blocks websites as people get caught surfing on them. well, right now i'm in Animation screwing aruond on the boards instead of rendering my animation.

[Toadie]

Yea, our school has the same crappy filtering system that blocks catagories. I can't get to .com, yet obvisouly, I am at the messege boards. I can't go anywhere with the word "game" or "violence" in it, but I can go to marijuana.com!

all i need to do to access a restricted site from school is do a google search and click "cached"


I don't know if it works for every cite blocking thing

[mouthofmak]

Just remove the www bit when youre typing it into the address bar. So instead of typing www.i-mockery.com, type i-mockery.com instead. For some reason it lets you get into the site with no probs.

Cuz at our school newgrounds.com has been banned but if you get rid of the www bit it works fine.

Why is bert newton your avatar? His hair is a failed hair transplant

[mouthofmak]

I dont know. I got bored so i thought to my self "I might make bert my avatar". I might go change it now. His hair isnt so bad as Ray Martin's plastic thing he calls a wig.

One shure-fire way go get arond all "censorware" is to set up a circumventor site on an unfiltered computer (your home or a friend's machine), then use that site to remotely get around the BLOCKAGE I am trying to set one up, but I never got the thing working yet.. Go to http://<a href="http://www.peacefire...cefire.org</a>for more info.

Grodenbarg, could you have made that post any more disorienting and harder to read?

[Evil Robot]

Grodenbarg, we don't allow HTML comments in our signatures. Come to think of it we frown upon ANY HTML comments as thats not the kind of thing THATS TOLERATED IN NORMAL SOCIETY. We certainly don't allow "your kind" or any of "you people" to run around with big shitty banners for thier sigs. And stay the fuck outta my booze.
