It could be worse. My old college used to monitor your Internet usage. Normal, right? Not really. They actually hired several people to read your Internet history. Thoroughly, to make sure it was Christian and for a "pure mind" in terms of theological content. If they didn't like it they would just block it and possibly fine you $50-$100, expel you, or put you on probation. Fun times that was.
What! why would you go there lol.

Get the contract that you should've read before signing up to and see if there's anything about the internet otherwise this just looks like you're whining because they don't want everyone to have utorrent going and crippling everyone else's connection.
Pay for your own damn connection and stop bitching [QUOTE=Alex_DeLarge;20076725]Which is why you purchase your own connection you cheap bastard. Of course a standard dorm connection is gonna suck, it's probably one of the broadband connections meant for one household, not 200-300 college students.[/QUOTE]

Stop whining. You're not at college to fucking go on the internet. Study, do your homework.
There are worse colleges than that.

It's a hard life here in Portsmouth University accomodation :smugdog: Sucks to be you, there is most likely nothing you can do. You are paying for a service which has terms which you most likely signed some form of contact agreeing to.
Transfer? What's your major?

If you don't play games while you are there then you don't play games at all, and thinking that you shouldn't play games at all while at college makes you a moron.
