I suspect that it doesn't matter. Once tagged, a site is
probably screwed.

we could probably petition them to have another look.


screwed is the individual poster.  i am sick of rules.  if parents would do a better job of supervising their children and adults took a more responsible approach in their own lives....


whatever happened to common sense?
Misunderstood.

Websense are supposed to ban all forums anyway - its only small ones that slip the net, as we did before last week.  So this site is definatly banned with or without porn.

Wow. Most of the jobs that I'd get nowadays
probably would require that I have access to
forums.

websense don't ban anything they just classify stuff. the administrators in your company decide which classifications of stuff to ban. if they're gonna ban anything it'd be stuff classified as "sex" or "tasteless". if you petitioned them to have another look at this site the best you'd get is downgraded to tasteless. so no help really.

None right now, but I expect that I'd be involved
in software development, and there are a lot of
valuable forum communities.
