port 81

[xxxbob]

Right then... I've been trying to work it out for ages now, but I can't understand why literotica won't let me get on it at all unless everything has :81 at the end.

I can't login to my account to add stories and I can't browse the stories either . It's getting annoying now and I turn to you, the lit-erati ( ) to help me out.

Thanks in advance for any help.

I was wondering why they used a specific port myself, the entire time when I was living in residence at university they had a bunch of ports blocked/forwarded/whatnot, and 81 was one of those so i couldn't access the forums at all.

That might be why Lit uses it -- as part of an agreement with one of the net-nanny systems to allow Lit to be easily blocked by parents, universities and companies that want to block access to participating sites.
