TOR is blocked ;) Tried that my first week of school. There are ways of getting out if you have leveraged access (which is not hard to get), but like I said I'll just follow the rules. Only a few weeks left.

Hahahaha. "Restrictive" is an understatement at Bob Jones. I feel sorry for you, I really do. In any case, let me know if you'd like me to grab a copy of TOR for you to use.

Cheers,
David

My school is extremely... well... over-reactive when you get around restrictions they have in place. One of their restrictions is "chat" sites (including but not limited to IRC gateways). If it isn't blocked by the filter, it will be soon :) I just feel like being a good boy right now I guess.

Unfortunately I will not be able to chat on #sword until after I am done with school (May 9th) because of the said network access restrictions on-campus :(

I was a C.S. student once (more than two decades ago!)... I'd say you're not being very creative about overcoming your network restrictions :) There are several free web IRC gateways you can use in "web only" situations. For example, browse to

http://embed.mibbit.com/?server=irc.freenode.net&channel=%23sword&forcePrompt=true

and after a mild delay, enter a nick and click Connect, and you should be on #sword :)

Actually, there is a link called "chat" on the http://www.crosswire.org home page, which uses mibbit to do this, under "Do you need help?" -- doesn't that work for you?

If not, and you want to chat on #sword before May 9th, say so, and I'll set up a copy of CGI:IRC somewhere for you to use :)

Jonathan
