MLP Forums blocked at school?

[NewCalamity 3,454]

I haven't checked yet, but I'm sure it would be blocked! This site is NSFW, so muuch violence sex drugs and lewd content! I'm surprised there haven't been legal measures to remove this inappropriate site!

 

In all seriousness it is pretty funny that school boards consider this a malicious site that detracts from student's education and ability to learn. Makes me feel proud to be a brony, actually.

[XXVYNIKK 145]

Sadly, yes.

EQD and Ponychan isn't blocked or me though.

My school has so many filters on our computers... That one point in time we even had our school website blocked...

I'm not in school anymore

[Aureity 3,055]

Schools do not approve of love and tolerance. Just look at the amount of homework I get.

[I am Fluttershy 20]

no way, cuz i get on the mlp forums at school all the time!! That sucks for u...

[Tom The Diamond 1,830]

I used to have a part time job in an office that blocked this site. So I had to learn the magic of proxies to access this place!

 

But I can see why they would block this site, all the pornographic material, and horrible language and behavior would surely defile the business's good image!

 

Oh yeah, and 4Chan oddly enough was not blocked.

i use my phone to hack into the internet and unblock it but its blocked at my school too.

i feel ur pain tho my friend

[FLARE 952]

Our school has a white list, I can grantee this is blocked...

 

even if it wasn't I'd get in trouble for not doing my work....

it seems I'm the only one who goes to a strict school around here....

It's blocked because our administrator is an evil overlord. Edited March 14, 2012 by Devin Dash

Obviously the admin is a /b/tard and a hater.

[Flow 1,628]

It's not blocked at my school, you can't find much bronies in Guam

[Pinkazoid 3,493]

My school blocks out any website besides the TISD approved and those are just the type you get in 3rd grade

[Arkane 270]

blocked. but proxies, man!

[Radiance64 7,053]

I'm not in school anymore, but considering how the high school I went to is when it comes to blocking websites, I'm willing to assume it would be.

[Legit101 300]

Some schools block ALL blogs and forums.

As stupid as it is.

Don't know how you can come to such a conclusion.

 

blocked. but proxies, man!

Any competent admin will block all proxies.

They block this site but they don't block Equestria Daily. I'm on it nearly all the time when I sit at the back of class. Not for the teachers mind, but those pesky students.

[ThePlantsOfDistraction 56]

I can get on at my school just not EqD

[Killian Jones 2,655]

Our school blocks pretty much every port that is not HTTP and nothing else.

[cuteycindyhoney 13,306]

I'm honoured that my humble 5-month-old pony forum has already been deemed dangerous to students' academic progress.

 

Congratulations, you radical subversive!

A bit odd that in the nearby high school they have Youtube enabled but Wikipedia disabled, wheres the logic in that?

[Klopp 2,050]

My school is a college, where they honestly do not care what you do as long as it is not porn. And that is most certainly something that should be kept in your own bedroom.

Some teachers use Youtube to show educational videos, rather than buying the video themselves. Youtube videos remain constant, and cannot be affected by anyone but the user who uploaded them, so if an educational video is posted, it can help schools with price cutting. Wikipedia can easily be altered by anyone, and is a frequest stop for trolls which makes it unreliable at times. Becuase of this, Wikipedia is, more often than not, banned in K-12 schools because of this.

I hate when people say Wikipedia isn't reliable.

They obviously haven't heard of citations.

But they didn't. XD
