Title: I can't gain access to Gametoast: What you can do (read all posts)
Post by: Giftheck on August 02, 2015, 11:29:12 PM
I have no access to Gametoast ATM so I have no idea what's been going on, even though I still get e-mail topic update notifications (the most annoying is that I'm subscribed to Deviss' thread, he recently replied but I have no idea what he replied with, sicne Gametoast e-mail notifs don't come with the message that's been posted).

I've googled the problem, the issue seems to be with the router yet I don't think my dad would be willing to mess with it to resolve access to a single site.

I've had this problem before, with another website and it did eventually resolve itself after about two months of no access to it.

Well, as far as I know, Gametoast, closed access for many countries, because of spam attack. Perhaps they have a reason to act like that, but if everything goes this way - Gametoast, may turns in to a very small and secret society...

Same for me, they must have blocked the UK. I wouldn't be surprised if they block everywhere and just allow a few IP's at this rate...

E-mail Guru, I'm sure he'll let you all through.

Spam attack? Ironically, wasn't that why my original account here got banned? (Yahoo! e-mails were being used to register spam accounts or something).

Yahoo accounts (and some others) were restricted from registration back in the MPCgamers days.  Since then, I have loosened up on the account registrations and Jedikiller has installed a some anti-spam mods for the forum.

Even here, I have blocked IPs from China, as we get a lot of questionable visits from that part of the world.

So, I understand what they are going through, but it seems a bit aggressive to me.

However, if you email Guru, he should be able to whitelist your IP.

I've e-mailed. Just waiting back.

It's not an ideal solution, but in the interim it might be adviseable to use a US-based proxy server.

I've received instruction from Teancum to post what to do here. So if you want to have access to Gametoast restored, please PM Teancum on here with your IP address and he will pass it along to get it whitelisted.

Yeah, I propose to create on SWBFGamers, a sort of embassy of the Gametoast, that people who have never been there, might learn about existence of this site, and could apply for a visa.  :D

I created an account just for this.

Thank you Gistech for making this thread , it helped me a lot.
Hopefully I can find a way to contact Teancum...  although after using the searchbar I can't seem to find his profile so I'm gonna need some help with that.

EDIT: NEVERMIND! just used the Members tab , sorry I've been browsing this website for some years but this is the first time I registered.

Cheers.

All,

I sent the IP whitelist requests to Guru, who is the server administrator. If you did not PM me with your IP and can't access Gametoast let me know. I have requests all the way back to May 2015 (Sareja's request) so he should be able to get everyone.

Please give it about a week and let me know if you still can't get access. Guru's a busy guy.

Thanks, Teancum.

I should let DEVISS know. He's currently having to use a proxy to get to Gametoast himself (he told me this on Facepunch).

Speaking of Proxy servers (I still haven't heard anything solid from Guru), maybe anyone using a proxy can share how they're doing it so others can easily access Gametoast as well for now?
Title: Re: I can't gain access to Gametoast

Deviss suggested this proxy to me:

Perfect. Here's a direct URL to Gametoast via proxy. Just bookmark this:

I tried that at first. It only works in a single browser session, it seems. For now, I've just bookmarked the proxy site and GameToast is the only suggestion that comes up when I type in the URL box there anyway so it's not a huge hassle.

I tryed it and its working however i can't download anything or see images from gametoast.When i click download to something it redirect me to gametoast and there the download button is staing on preparing download.Im waiting and waiting but sadly nothing happen :D

EDIT:Little request please.
Can someone who can enter gametoast without proxy go there and go to Released Assets then go to EvilleJedi's Star Wars model packs then go to this link and then paste me the direct gamefront download link from there here cuz im going there via the proxy teancum give us here and the link is different for me and can't download them.

All of the above (except pedistal_v2) converted to obj:

Forgot to mention, it seems Gametoast access is back now for quite a few people.

Just a little tips:
For downloading something from Gametoast, via unblockwebsense.com, you need to save overall webpage in to some folder. Then go there, and search for mediafire (or something else) link in the text files.

I know this is an old topic, but I just wanted to remind everyone that I sent all IP addresses to Guru. I never heard back, so unfortunately it looks like everyone will have to keep using a proxy. Sorry guys.

I found solution on the problem.Go to yotube and search for one small program called AnonymoX.Install it on your internet browser.You will see one little X icon on the top right corner.Click on it and select Activate.Then change the IP adress and you can go without problem in gametoast and even download stuff from there.

There is a tutorial video in youtube about that.Check it.It works perfect for me.
