Proxy sites > school block.

Really back in my highschool all the good webstites were blocked, soooo we just used proxy websites and went over the blockers.

I forgot all the websites so you'll have to find them by yourself.

anyway luck. I doubt they will actually unblock it.

My school started blocking those tunnel sites too, so it made getting on certain websites all the more difficult.

Yeah they did that as well, but there are a bunch of proxy websites.

so they would block on and a new one would come up.

LGBT content -ok what dose that stand for? This place premotes religen? How? no guild that I'm on talks about religen. True I haven't lookd up religus guilds, so there could be some but for the most part I haven seen any premoting here on this guild. And I also found out that this place blocks bad words by using these**** as I found out by naming by bidoof dumb @$$. I know there are some older based guilds(like old geasers) that might have more of an adult contant but the guilds that I'm on don't have them and are mostly diffren age friendly. I wouldn't let young kids on the net without supervision kid friendly or not. To many child preadors out there pretending to be what their not.

Lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender/sexual. This part is true. Think about all of the Yaoi threads and/or guilds going on. It's my personal belief that a school shouldn't block a site simply because of peoples' different lifestyles, but whatever.

Promoting religion - Remember Ron Bruise? That Gaia NPC is/was a part of some big religion that had something to do with.. what, censoring the internet or something? I can't even remember anymore, but it is an actual religion that people try to force on others, so I can kinda see why the school would block the site because of that, even if it was only one character for a pretty short time period.

Censoring language - It's completely up to the user if they want or don't want to see curse words. We can change that in our settings. I never bothered to turn the cesoring on becaus the asterisks annoy me.

I guess I can see why the school blocked Gaia - it is a PG-13 and under site, after all, and schools are too scared of getting parent complaints to allow their students to see potentially disturbing/influential websites.
