Shegokigo.... gone?

Sep 23, 2009#1

Shegokigo

From 8am-5pm anyway.

Well it finally happened. The web guys here at work have realized I'm coming here.... all the time. So they've added Halforums to the "blocked list" under "games".

So now I'm working off a proxy server (we'll see how long this lasts) but during the process of looking for a server, I got quite a few "blocks" from "attempted proxy bypass". So I could possibly lose my job for it, not really sure. Though I'll be honest. If I can't surf/visit Halforums, I'd rather get another job anyway.

Let's see what comes next.

It's our fault for being such a great time-waster. So sorry.

That's one of the best things about my last job, by the way. Not only could I go to HF, I could go to any site I wanted. Plus, about two thirds of my time was spent sitting around (the other one third was spent on frantic and stressful translating, so I guess it balances out).

I can't imagine doing my job without the option to at least occasionally peak in at Halforums

Sep 23, 2009#4

Pretty much my thoughts too Hylian. There's just no way.

My work does not even give a crap. As long as stuff gets done and I don't surf porn I can do pretty much what I want here. One of the perks of my job.

They dont care here, as long as things are done. That, and there is also a passworded private wireless setup here that the tech guys have for like 10 of us that isnt monitored by anyone at all.

I use it for torrents, wow, anything else on my laptop.

Bless you Roadrunner Tech Support.

Sep 23, 2009#13

Shegokigo

Honestly? The ability to be on Halforums for the majority of the day is probably one of the biggest reasons I haven't left yet. There are other opportunities I could persue, but not have internet access/freedom like I did here.

Sep 23, 2009#14

fade

Be a shame to see you go. Don't go into self-destructive mode...

I've often thought about blocking this site from myself at work, but there's no reliable way to do it. I could edit my hosts file, but what would keep me from just re-editing it? I spend WAY too much time here during the day, and I need to stop. I used to pull the ethernet cable, but I'm running a wiki now that needs to be online.

Sep 23, 2009#15

Shegokigo

Self-destructive mode? You must have me confused....

As for "being here too much", are you losing productivity or just would rather be doing somethingelse?

I get my work done 100% of the time, but I have so much "lax" time inbetween that without this place, I'd go stir crazy and begin mutilating and eating co-workers within a week.

I like this place. Too much. It's easy to come to a frustrating point in my work, and then casually click the "hf" bookmark as a distraction. Then suddenly, 30 minutes or more is gone. I've set up a separate desk for writing, but I just wheel back over too often. I'd rather remove temptation during work hours.

Shego are you using a company PC? Would they allow you to bring in your own laptop so you can surf HF?

I used Ivacy, a pretty excellent proxy program. There's even a Firefox plugin so you can just activate it with a click while surfing. It's not free though but it's $10 or so for 20GB so it's really not that much.

Sep 23, 2009#27

GeneralOrder24

Shego, can you hit the website via its IP address instead of it's name? If they blocked the name only, you could hit it via (if it's static ip) 74.86.59.136 if not, you could ping halforums.com and just get the IP that way. It's how I read Dilbert when my company imposed unnecessary web restrictions.

Though you might get into a bit of trouble for circumventing their security.

This computer doesn't allow anything to be downloaded onto it, that includes programs/browsers.

Sep 23, 2009#30

Gill Kaiser

If you really have to, try using a proxy tunneler like "Your Freedom". I used it for bittorrent and WoW during my university years when the proxy prevented all TCP/IP connections. It converts anything that goes through it into HTTP and makes it seem like it's coming from their external servers... I'm not sure if that would get around your problem though, as my university at least had unrestricted HTTP access.

Sep 23, 2009#37

Shegokigo

Well, the issue is simple:

I have a job I can't stand and work with people I loathe. The only saving grace is that I can surf all day and spend time on Halforum.

I could get another job, in the same field, make the same, have a chance at better co-workers/supervisors, but very likely not have internet freedom.

So if I get fired *shrug* I lose the internet either way, but my income isn't affected at all.

At our place, our internet is VERY restricted because there is always some numbskull who cannot do without pr0n for 24 hours. At least we are permitted to bring in our laptops. At my station we don't have wifi, but it does leak in from the municipal system.....of course there is only one side of one small room that get internet access. We jokingly call that our internet cafe.It gets a little crowdy with 2 people on the work PCs doing patient care reports, and three of us crammed in there surfing.

I hear ya. It's not the same without Halforums. One of my jobs has completely taken away the internet from us, so not even a Proxy can help there. The other job was blocking web sites left and right for quite some time. Halforum.com was one of those to get the block, but I managed to circumvent it when they forgot to block httpS://www.ninjacloak.com from their list of Proxy sites.
But due to the name change of the site I've been able to log on with no trouble. I think that whoever does the web blocking took a long, extended vacation or something.

Either way I always have my trusty blackberry for emergency net invading should I ever need my fix.

Speaking of which, she flat out asked me out today. Wants to go out with me and two other people from work on Friday night.

Now I know how this is going to go: We get there, drink all night, other two take off and we're left alone and she has an alibi (inebriated) to come out to me.

How do I know? It's the exact ploy I used everytime I wanted to "test" if someone would swing that way.

I have to admit, I have left a job once when all outside surfing was blocked. They blocked everything, I inquired why, didn't like the answer, went home, posting on some apps and by the next week, I started a new job, without even giving my 2 week notice.

If they can't have the decency to treat people like adults, I won't have any of that. If I decide to peruse normal websites during my downtime and they feel that if 1-2 people exaggerate and the entire workforce needs to suffer... fuck that.

Rubicon

I have to not read the forums at work too.

Not cause its blocked but just the content.

I turned on the in-forum profanity filter, it only catches so many words. I installed an add-on into firefox @ work to block profanity, it as well only catches so many words (every time I add a new spelling of "fuck" I end up reading a thread where someone has spelt it an entirely new way that gets around the filter). etc.

I miss reading the forums most of the day but damn, even General is for the most part NSFW in terms of discussion material in the words people choose to reply with (not to mention images which I'd have to blanket filter all of them off to help keep out some .jpg that has some profanity on it)

I'd say "Yeah!" to the "treat people like adults" thing above, except I think "1-2 people who exaggerate" is a gross underestimation. There have been studies that show your average corporate slob works 1.5 hours a day. Which probably explains why I used to get to listen to them on the commuter rail in Boston crying about 75 hour work weeks. Maybe if you focused during the normal 40...

Hah, o know a guy who works at Honda and he says that only about 3 hours a day he's actually doing work, same for most people working there... and he never had to work overtime because of it... frankly i think tehnology overtook the whole 8 hours thing for most jobs (especially those that involve paperwork that only requires modifying certain data), and we just haven't caught up yet.

I have found if you play Eve in Windowed mode you can do pretty much anything. It helps if you have 2 monitors as I do but I set up Autopilot or mining and can work on other stuff simultaneously.

Just to be safe, is there anyone who knows shego's real name? They could do a google news search for the end of January/beginning of February, and see if anything turns up.

If nothing does, she's probably fine, since anything going wrong involving her probably involves copious amounts of media-friendly blood and gore.

Mar 3, 2010#135

Dave

There's maybe 2-3 people who know her name and I doubt any of them know her last name.

She was extremely careful about that.

Shego will never be gone. She's the whisper you hear in the dark, the movement you see in the corner of your eye when you were sure you were alone. Shego is the story you'll tell your children to ensure they scurry home before the last vestiges of daylight fade. Shego is legend.

Seriously, I know I'm not the most up on things around here (as long as by "things", we're not referring to Dave's mom), but it seems like things were kind of starting to work out in a normal way for Shego in the real world. Maybe she decided to focus on that...move away from the "dark Shego" persona that she portrayed/displayed here. Just a thought.

just to bring things back on topic:
Shego's last activity here was 2/2/10 But over on the LICD forums, she logged in nearly a week later (2/9/10).

Her shooting team-mates is like the main reason why this thread got resurrected... it's just not the same playing without the ever looming spectre of betrayal at the most unexpected moment.

That would just be freakin' annoying. I'm sure it feels all clever and cathartic to the person doing it, but since it's just a game, it would be terribly annoying.
