Site Blocked from NYC

RIDEr · Oct 8, 2007, 6:52 PM

Hey Greg and other Moderators -
I'm working in NYC now and am getting blocked from the forum. I can access the main site without any issues, but it appears my IP Address subnet that I am coming through is being blocked. Is there any way that this can be updated or do I need to be more productive at work?

Thanks and THINK SNOW!

If you're getting blocked, how are you posting this?

PM or email me (contact@alpinezone.com) your IP.

Often times network admins will block the "forums" sub-domain (e.g. http://forums.abc.abc) from any web site. The admins at my work finally started doing this recently. Good on them, slackers need to get back to work.

Chances are that work is blocking anything that has forum in the url. The best Greg may be able to do is create an alternate url.

Posting from home now. At work, I'll get you my IP Address. I realize that when I get blocked from the site all together I would get a different message.

I should have called it more productive than being a slacker. My job typically can take a co-worker a day and a half to complete due to their inability to do the job... I will do it in a half a day...
