    do you not have a smartphone? I can understand why companies have to filter stuff like YT as it cane their bandwidth if a whole office is using it, but would have thought 3g signal in somewhere like the centre of Bristol is good quality (not like here where in the sticks both fixed and mobile broadband are alow)

    no such luck mate! just a good ol sony erikson!

    i do need to get a smartphone as its handy having calenders many users can access and having email on me at all times, but i refuse to pay for a phone & i refuse to have a contract! i have never done either & am not about to start! ill pike one sooner or later but yeah until then the sont erikson in all its glory will have to do!

    You could probably get round it by using a proxy server to acsess YT depending on how they block it … alltho if you get caught at work you’ll probably get into trouble, and I dunno if your network is properly monitored or not.

    yeah its proppa locked down unfortunately! im amazed this place isnt blocked, its actually saved what little sanity i have left! har! blackout audio it lets me on aswell but any other forums are blocked, i wonder why pv & ba arnt blocked?

    Where the hell are they playing dubstep at free parties? I’ve never encountered it..

    To be honest i was going to say the same thing, if you do hear dubstep its maybe a tune or two in a dnb set but nothing major, who plays dubstep at parties then?

    censorship in a private sector company has different aims than that in a public sector organisation or carried out by a national government for political purposes. Other than protecting confidential corporate information and stopping people looking at blatant porn/extreme content (as this practice can be leaked out to customers) they are not interested as much in the content of non-work related net use but the bandwidth consumption. Stuff like real time audio/video canes it, and in a place especially where there are call centres or VOIP telephones this bandwidth is needed for the phones. I don’t know about BA but PV has always been coded so as not to can excessive bandwidth as I was running it through mobile devices nearly 10 years ago when data traffic cost way more and the bills never got excessive.

    the practice appears to be far more common in London and the SE than round here. reminds me of a episode of the Bill in the early 2000s where they turned over a squat rave and the DJ’s were playing UK garage and there was a standoff with both the feds and the rudeboys pointing identical Glock 17L’s at one another :laugh_at:

    Can think of a couple of rigs which have played dubstep at free parties a while back :crazy_fre:

    Well if everyone stopped doing NOS for one second, then people might have enough brain cells left to organise a party properly, and actually care about what they are doing. It’s not just the people that go there, it’s the destruction of the countryside. Has everyone forgotten that the one main rule was ‘leave no trace??!!’

    I’ve been to a few parties around the home counties recently. No one gives a shit anymore. Just an excuse to piss the police off and get wasted in a field.

    How about for a change, not destroying every venue that you go to? take your shit HOME with you! doesn’t take much to put your rubbish in your OWN CAR! and stop doing so much laughing gas. Grazing animals end up eating balloons and that aint good for them. EVer think about that?

    For once I’d like to go to a party with people that don’t crowd around a canister like fucking zombies or flies to a light. I go to a party to enjoy the music and the people, not have to listen to a barrage of hissing from every angle. I know you can make money, but stop being so fucking greedy. Stop rinsing the countryside and start taking care of what’s been given to us. This is a privilege, not a right. In some countries you’d be shot on site!

    Have some respect for yourselves, each other and the land we live off.

    Sorry for the rant, and I know that not all free parties are like this, but things have seriously gone down hill in the last 4 or 5 years.

    Much love (and sort it the FUCK out!) 🙂
