Not to forget that nowdays, common commercial web-filtering software lists 
peginc.com as a game site, and is automatically blocked at work.

However, I can still get to my email from there.

The one problem with having both options is Metcalf's "law", which states 
that the value of a communications network is the # of participants, 
squared.  Or to take the concept in reverse, if you limit or cut out half 
of the number of participants, you lose far more than half the "value"
