Just thought I'd add to the mix the cost of Internet

And lol, uni where im going just had to fix the net connection of the accommodation i applied to stay in

1.3GB/week is not much at all.

And lol, Si.

Hmm... 1.3GB/wk = approx 200MB/day

Holy <bleep> you could prob blow all that on the forum!

I probably do, lol. Luckily it's a guideline, and they will only check up if their entire network is suffering, then they'll contact the biggest users.

si weres the pages on tht 4 us ? dose it acturly sat wha ports are blocked ?

http://www.resnet.bristol.ac.uk/

It's on there somewhere...

The firewall policy explains a bit:
http://www.bristol.ac.uk/is/computing/a ... ewall.html

They will go for the ppl blowing it all on porn...

you could just say you downloaded a very important lecture that will help you with you studies lol

I have excuses for every thing!

They'll go for whoever's downloading the most. Unfortunately I don't think a lecture one will work, as that should be on the intranet, not the internet.

How come loads of these posts in the forum sections are from 2005 and 2006?

+ My Brother goes to Uni, and the only things he can access is MSN and the internet. Because Gaming lowers educational performance and attendance

Hah

So he bought an X-box.

End of

Cos this forum has been around for years ^^

Xbox isn't going to solve the not being able to play games problem xP Well it will only be a year at most, lol.

So if this is from a few years back what's the status of you guys now? Have some of you began the wonderful journey through university?

This particular thread isn't that old, only from this year. we're all off to uni next/this year (school/calender).

Oh, cool. I hope you all got into where you wanted to go. I'm sure it will be a great experience as well.

Oh yes, University will be one of the best experiences of your life

Partying, independence, responsibility, getting wasted (y), commiting sexual acts. The life All factors im looking forward too.

+ Xbox wont solve the problem no I suppose it all depends what Uni's your going too. Some are stricter than others am i right?

Yes some are alot stricter than others

For example,

University of the West of England - Ban all games on the computer, due to bad influences on education, such as WOW. People get so addicted they dont go to class, (Sound familiar? )

Nottingham trent University - Ban hardly anything,

Oxford - Ban all computer games, allow all console games. Wierd?

I think they are correct...

It reflects doesnt it, the highly ranked uni's have stricter rules

Or you could do it in the theme of a crime?
