Website not work safe ?

Ive been informed that this website contains a meta tag and as such registers some work firewalls as NSF. Any way we can get that changed?

I don't know much about it (I'm taking a course on web programming atm, so I'll know more over the next few months!), but I believe the meta tag has to do with how the site works with search engines. If I understand correctly, it's needed in order to show up when people search for vgmonks, vanguardmonks, etc. I could be wrong though, I'd also be interested to find out more about what that tag actually does.

It's also possible that if this site is hosted on a server that hosts something that isnt safe for work (say a porn site or something), many filtering devices will block it based on the IP it shares with said site instead of the DNS name of the site.

I'm just glad this is one of the few sites that isn't tagged as a message board or game related... love being able to read up on things and learn more about Monk while i'm at work. They're very quick to filter things where i'm at.

Ditto for me, Rho. I seem to be able to get to these boards with no glaring access denied screen popping up. Thank god our IT dept isn't as sophisticated as they like to think they are... or they could just be sneaky and the IT gestapo is on it's way to kidnap and interrogate me now...

Welcome aboard Zzev, just read your intro post a moment ago... i usually just view the site during hours when i know they're not overly active in IT, just to be cautious. They scan what we look at, and in the past it's happened where they just blocked a site because it was deemed inappropriate
. The whole reason i have internet at work is to keep my mind occupied... and VG Monks does it better than anything else short of playing VG

Working for a very big company in France, every game site in french is blocked, but so far no game site in english have been blocked
I guess that if the guys in charge of blocking the access spoke english they would be doing another job
Regarding the original question, is there someone runing the site ? (from an IT point of view)
