Title: Making a RA2 website.
Post by: RpJk on October 10, 2011, 12:04:17 AM: What I am going to do is to make a website about RA2 that does not get blocked by my schools C2K network and it will mostly focus on weapon types and strategys against others with a famous robot in RA2 as an example.

So I am wondering can I get some help with planning beecause I need the name to sound like an educantional website but have something to do with RA2?

Your total target audience is less than 100 people, most of which already are experienced in RA2 and have no need to read about it. You also might want to work on your writing skill before trying to write a website. Also your schools web filter probably blocks free websites so unless you are willing to pay around $10 at minimum a month for hosting service your website wont serve it's intended purpose.

That is my intended purpose and what is a Proxy?

Just connect to a different network at school, or you could bring your internet adapter or something, and connect though that.

My school banned self internet adapter's ages ago like they did with mobile phones and Thats the only connection around my school.

My only way is ask my teacher to say to C2K to not block my website.
