I work for a website, so most of my day is spent on the net. Which means I play VMK at work, alot. MOST of my day at work, a good 5 hours or so is spent playing VMK. Well thanks the the ever updating Shockwave Player, I can no longer play. I guess in order to play VMK you need to update Shockwave, and we cant install or download programs on our computers here at work, which means no more VMK for me here anymore :( I rarely have time to play it when I am at home, plus here at work the lag on pirates isnt as bad as it is when I am at home, this really bites.
 
Aww, that is no fun!
Hope somehow they update your computers at the office, and soon for you.
 
Perhaps you can get one of your office admins to update your Shockwave for you. I mean there are plenty of legit reasons why you would need that on your system.

Currently trying to hatch a plan to do so. Hopefully this will be solved or work will get even more boring than it already is. Going through major VMK Withdrawls today.
 
We will miss you WHILE you are gone, but I am sure you WILL be back:)

Ok here you go... You say you work on webpages and have Intarwebs access for that. Cool. You just have to find a legit reason - For example, I use my access to research programming syntax for various projects that the bean counters won't buy books for (besides Googling is easier than page turning so I don't mind). If you have similar knowledge-quests all you have to do is find a source of info online that uses the latest Shockwave in their tutorials and poof you've got you rationale.

"Hey Johnny Admin I need Shockwave updated so I can access this refrence page."

"Sure no porblem."

Issue solved. Muahahah.... :stir: :scratchin :thumbsup2
 
Well my work is really simple, ever heard of craigslist.com? The site I work for is similar, called backpage.com and sometimes people post scam ads or spam, my job is to just look around in the cities on our site and delete all the scam spam thats on the site. Thats about it, so in between waiting for people to join my pirates game, or loading screens, i delete some ads.
 
I'm kind of glad my computer at work is too crappy to handle VMK. I would get nothing done otherwise. * guilt *

I guess the need to see flash friday would not be a legitimate business use then?:rotfl:

Success?

Well, for some reason I can get on VMK using Fire Fox.... last time I used VMK on Fire Fox though it always froze up? No idea why it works on firefox but not IE anymore. Ah well.
