    Just like anyone else, I like to check this site from time to time when I'm at work. However, whenever I try from work, I get the following error that makes it sound like it's TGG's problem! But it only happens at work, and I just VPNed into work to see if I get the error, and sure enough, it doesn't work. Anyone know why this might happen?? Error message is below. Thanks!

    I have been getting the same thing. I check my work did nothing to block the site it just won't load. I did notice that it works sometimes randomly

    I haven't gotten it to work once, but work hasn't blocked mine either. I actually have been having some issues at home too with it, but I just reload a couple times and it eventually goes through.

    Have you run a traceroute?

    It sounds like certain restrictions at the office might be making you time out. Mine goes slower at work, than home, but that's expected with the heavy network traffic.
