We currently do not "intentionally" block any gaming on campus.  Because of standard networking practice, you will not be able to host any online games because other users will not be able to see you from the outside.  In addition, when trying to connect to other users your connection will probably be inadequate because it would be looked at by our bandwidth management tools as being low priority.<!--QuoteEnd--></td></tr></table><div class='postcolor'><!--QuoteEEnd-->

Hehe.. "free" computers at the expense of about 2000 extra dollars towards your tuition perhaps. <!--emo&:D--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html//emoticons/biggrin-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='biggrin-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->
