Not entirely sure if this is the right place for it, but anyway I've got home to uni and for some reason I can't access any sgw or sgw related stuff from my computer(forums, ascended etc), I think its something to do with the IP because both mums old pc and my laptop wont work. I keep getting the page not there thing come up... Anywho, I've tried using a proxy to log in, however when I do, it comes up with the page that says could not determine your refferer or such 90% of the time, and the other 10% lets me into sgw for some bizzare reason. Once I'm in the game I'm unable to do anything that concerns when you click a button and it turns unclickable... like attacking or raiding, I can only use the quick attack buttons, real pain in the neck. Does anyone have any idea which proxy I should use/how I should be using the proxy when using sgw? I've been using both firefox and ie and they both appear to be doing the same thing.

The proxy I have been using is http://www.4proxy.com

Alot of online games have started blocking people from viewing/playing their games through a proxy because if someone is running multiple accounts, a proxy helps them accomplish that (and avoids the auto-checks ingame I think). It sucks for the few people who legitimately need a proxy, but it prevents a whole lot of illegitimate countries from being played as easily.

Yeap, as once said to me by Adminmark re Shared IPs "Due to the cheating by a few the whole are restricted.", although he did grant me a shared/multiple IP, not that this will help you with proxies Gordash. Although could be wise to drop him an email and ask him about making a proxy exception for you, although you will need to provide info/proof/details about WHY you need a proxy etc.

And yes Proxys can help avoid auto-checks.

I've just tried a couple of proxys and managed to access SGW okay.

So just some info on the matter for you.
