    Erm no, I just realize that you and I have no control over it.

    Is it blocked for you at your work?

    It was for a little while, but I traded some hockey tickets for it and a few other sites to be allowed. I am merely just a champion for what is good and just here on FutureMark.

    Edit: Mute, the first two sentences are for you. I know you aren't an FM employee.
    Well Lang supports our cause but this is up to actual FM employees. Hopefully they see this thread.

    Not the mention the fact that (almost) nobody from the community (and the rest?) gives a rats ass about "yougamers"

    Of course there is no response from FM. They wonder why their forum traffic is down and their products fizzle.

    I would totally be in favor of changing the "yougamers" to a simple "yg" in the URL. This would help increase traffic and keep the Yougamers reference in the URL.

    However, I think they addressed this back when the change was first made and I doubt it's going anywhere.

    That's 2 cents that FM could definitely use.
