PC Censorship!
 
I'm in a library not Accy - but the system is blocking me from going into the General Chat forum here due to "unsuitable subject matter" - this is a recent thing and for years I used the same library and no problem. i can access any other subject or thread but this one.

Well, we can blame you and AccyX for that!:D

Im guessing the library has recently upped their child settings on their network and that perhaps the word cannabis is blocking you from seeing the page. If I am correct in this, when you look again at this thread you will be blocked and if I am correct in that assumption then you wont be reading this anyway

Yep it only blocks the General line! Bit strange though because I have just put the word "cannabis" in google and clinked on links and they have not been blocked!

Accyweb used to be blocked in Accy library because there was a chat room attached to the site
The only way you could get on Accyweb at the library when you first go in was to ask for level 3 access
Don't ask what that was all I know is it worked and you could go on the site:)

OK but it wasn't in Accy library - I am in Mcdonalds now as they have free Wi-Fi and they don't block it either.

McDonalds won't care - the reason public facilities don't like chat rooms is their proxy can't police the content.
