Default The Ledge is Banned at School / Homecoming

D: Okay I'm like seriously distressed here, because the Ledge is now BANNED at my school. It just happened yesterday, because I go on the Ledge every Tuesday/Thursday during study hall. I am now convinced that my school only bans websites because they are fun/enjoyable. EVERYTHING IS BANNED. They banned Youtube last year (Well ok, I can see the reasoning behind that one), MLIA was banned within the past two weeks, along with all forms of social networking sites. If they see a pattern of people going onto websites, they ban them. @$!^#!

And also, IT'S HOMECOMING WEEK! YAAAAAAAY! The TPers will be out tonight, and sadly, I will not be joining them. I will however be hiding out in my bushes with a hose, car alarm, and silly string. Hohohohoho yesss. And of course, there's the dress up days and various games and mischeif going on. It's pretty awesome.

Soooo tell me Ledgies, how is/was your homecoming!? Care to share embarrassing pictures of your 80s hair? I want to see them, and I know you've got them!

Rhiya,

It's likely that you're the only person at your school surfing the Ledge.

Therefore, you've got a pretty anal "IT Dept Guy" at your school who has probably been monitoring your web surf-age.

Suggestion... You could possibly have a chat with him about it and have him to remove the block.

It was bound to happen, with all that discussion of tusking, hands slipping into gloves, gates and gardens, shaking rattlesnakes, shacking up, night tangoing, and still nights, going on day after day.

ha ha.. what a nightmare! It's banned at my job too, but I have free access to anything (I'm a manager), though I try not to enter frequently at job time.

Do they ban it specifically, or have they banned by category? (entertainment, adult, media, etc..)

It's amazing how much internet time is allowed here in NZ. As long as you don't abuse it (porn, etc) then it seems to be okay. I have my Gmail browser open all day so I can chat with my wife...! It's great!

My office is good about it too. You need a break from dry work stuff now and then to keep your head on straight. Some of us need more straightening.
