  Same here. It sucks and pisses me off because there's a crap load of other sites that should be blocked if they're gonna block a game news site. I know of countless people that waste a LOT of time on Facebook, Twitter and stuff like that.
  
  I'm hoping it's only temporary because I think the "gaming filter" is only supposed to block online games, gambling, etc.
