YES, IT IS BLOCKED, AND WE ALL KNOW WHY THEY DID IT. DON'T LET THEM WIN; WE WILL SHOW THEM, PLUS I AM GONNA EMAIL JOHN ZEGLIS! WHY DON'T WE ALL DO IT?

Yes! Why don't we all email John Zeglis? Wait, I just realized none of us care.

No, muchdrama, you must be the only one that doesn't care. It actually does mean something...

Get back to work! Quit posting on the company's dime!

Actually, the only part of phonescoop that's blocked is www.phonescoop.com/forums. if you go to the carrier information page, then click on the forums tab, you can have hot forum action just like the old days!

Same applies for other carriers and phone info. Can't get into general or other forums as of yet, though.

...So they go out of their way to say they don't want you posting to Phonescoop forums from work, and your first thought is "how can I publically defy them and taunt them with the fact"?

I'd expect to see more general blocking in the future, or perhaps closer monitoring of your computers. Have fun!

Fascinating!

Though there are thousands of loopholes in their nice little netnanny system. You just have to take the initiative to find them.

Isn't behavior like that likely to get you fired?

Maybe....but sometimes you have to tell your supervisors that they need to clean up the workplace, and make it a positive place to be, and stating the obvious isn't always the answer.

I'd really like to see the day that someone snaps because they've had one too many rounds taken out of them by a customer...and I'm surprised that it hasn't happened already.

Maybe you work in the call center of supreme happiness, but I sure as well don't.

Interestingly, my supervisor knows I'm on this website, since I showed her what I was doing before I posted. She said she emailed tech with the information, but that they can't really do anything to me if it's unblocked. Besides, it's not like I come here to flame people; I use the site to look at cellphone news because CCNet is so crappy for being up to date (I mean, DSGNet had more information about LNP on the 24th than us).

I guess I do work in the call center of supreme happiness at that. Ooooo Canadaaaaaa...!

Hey! I saw one of my co-workers do that very thing a day or so ago. Then he got fired. Be careful.
