I leave for school on Thursday. I have been packing for some time now, which is why I haven't posted lately. Once I get settled down and have my PC set up I will get back here as soon as possible. I will change all my preferences and stuff once I get there.

I hope I am not blocked out of here, but oh well...?

Don't know why you would be blocked.

Kosh: Well, by the school's server.

Good luck, Bryce! (I would say "G'luck!" but that just sounds weird. )

I dunno how the server would pick and choose, but since it's a Christian school they may block me out of a lot. (I dunno anything about the web access) I will have ICQ and AOL up so you guys can always get in touch with me.

I should have thought of that, I keep waiting for the admin here at work to catch up with me. I was warned once to lay low for a couple of weeks, but most of my friends have moved on to other jobs.

I got here! There is a firewall up, but that doesn't matter. I can't install AOL or ICQ because I don't know the Proxy codes! I have to find help or call I/S on Monday. See ya!

That incident...

*wasted sooooo many hours of homework time on RB*

Our Microsoft Feces Flinger picks on a lot of things... a lot of outward-moving Java, IRC, ICQ... AOLIM apparently can be made work through it, though I don't care to exploit that loophole much.

I have a worm on the inside, though, and things might improve this year..

I guess it's time to pray for the end of the firewall?

"Te Profundus Clammo, Ad Te Domine" ... Out of the Depths I Cry, To You, Oh Lord ... ....

Anyways... I had the same problem with my Catholic College... they had this huge firewall up and ICQ BARELY worked. It was a pain in the ARSE, and now it's worse in the computer lab, because they don't have any sort of AOL or anything. I had to use the java pop-up Yahoo pager for awhile. I can only thank my lucky stars that they have no such precautions with the net hook-ups in the dorms. *crosses her fingers*

Guys, the Firewall just blocks Playboy.com and crap!

AIM is installed on our cps, they are pretty cool. I love it here.

The network keeps track of where we have been and if we hit a firewall too often they make us go to Student Development for counseling! -LOL-

That's just absurd.

"WHY did you go to those forums so often, (insert RL name here), why??"
"Err... I like the people?"
"But didn't you know that that place is run by a cult-like Cappsian and his flock of merry sheep?.. It MUST be evil! If you continue to go there, we're going to have to speak to God directly about it."
"*o_O*".


*LOL* *Joking, of course, guys*
