King45Gamer Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 So I just realized one thing is that SL client viewer does not work in public places such as school workplace etc due to its graphic adult content. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rhonda Huntress Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 No network admin is going to open all ports as required for most online worlds like Second Life, World of Warcraft or even Call of Duty. It has nothing to do with adult content and everything to do with network security. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Take a deck of cards and play Solitaire at your desk and see how long you keep a job. Playing online is the same concept. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I get that but its school lol I mean the Habbo Hotel and other games used to work and suddenly they started stop loading the client basically it never opens nowadays same as SL. As far as gaming other games works fine but none applications ones which you need to download which require a .exe extension. And I understand what your saying but I thought once I am out like any place public with my PC i could play it any where it is a Virtual world after all.

You're not supposed to be playing games in school or at work. You're supposed to be working/doing school work. Employers don't pay you to play and parents don't pay out the nose for education for you to goof off. 2 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rhonda Huntress Posted October 24, 2018 Share Posted October 24, 2018 (edited) what? [eta] Aw, never mind You can't play because it's blocked. Unless you can find a dirty internet connection, you will be limited to what ever content that network's fire has enabled if any.

Also, rather than playing SL on your break at school why dont you do some homework and focus on getting even better grades than you have now?. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Schools and places of work have good reason to not allow just any program to be installed on their equipment or their connection(s) be used to access places they have disallowed. It's for your protection as well as the school's/place of work. Not to mention the legal connotations. Too many people are sue happy as well as filing criminal charges for even the most minor of things.

Judging by the fact your name is "King45Gamer" I think you probably play SL and other games more than you are letting on 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Libraries aren't for playing games. They are for reading, studying and doing research. Try a coffee shop. Or some other place that won't mind you sucking up a lot of bandwidth to play games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lindal Kidd Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 Hey King... I agree with the many others who have told you that you ought to be concentrating on work when you are at work, and school when you are at school. But let's put that aside for a moment. When you're at home, do you leave your home network open? I mean, do you you let people just pull their cars up in front of your house and log onto the web using your network? Or how about this...do you leave your smartphone turned on in WiFi Hotspot mode all the time, and let anyone near you use it to access the internet? I bet you don't. I sure don't, and probably for the same reasons that YOU don't. 1) It's a security risk. You don't know what some stranger is gonna do once they're on your network. Plus, 2) It costs you money, or at least degrades your network performance. And, 3) it's MY (your) network! I paid for it! Go get your own, you damn freeloaders! Well, your school and your boss feel exactly the same way about it. They didn't set those networks up and buy all that hardware so some layabouts could play games. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

More likely that it doesn't use port 80/443. So, teh firewall blocks it. It's a security thing. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Solar Legion Posted October 25, 2018 Share Posted October 25, 2018 It has nothing whatsoever to do with "graphic adult content" and everything to do with it being their network to do with as they please. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
