Yeah it was in the Randomness section before it was split into two sub-forums. Plus the spam section is read-only anyway :P

Back to the topic, the reason Omnimaga is blocked (especially true if your school uses Blue Coat proxying) is because of games.

One possible cause is the former forum arcade; another is that Omnimaga is in general more games-oriented than Cemetech and other sites are. (Compare the programs featured in news on the two sites.) I've tried to get the label off (to replace with Computers/Internet which wasn't blocked at my high school) but failed :(

SOCKS is your friend :)

We don't swear over here (not much, anyways). Probably listed under gaming-related web sites. Not much you can do about it.
I mean the funny OmniIRC quotes thread. I could email the teachers :)
That thread is only visible to registered members, so that's not it.
SOCKS?

Thanks Eeems.
I was confused because one of the books I read had the same acronym for something else.
