So, I've been really upset about Etisalat blocking Shelfari. By Thursday night, I've sent about 10 emails to them. On Friday, after bugging my whole family about it, my Dad told me to call them and see why they did it. And I did, with Abdulla present. After getting through the automatic voice options, they put me on hold for 10 minutes before some one answered me. 

After explaining to the nice Indian man my problem with the company he works for, he gave me an email that gaurenteed reaching the proxy people, and I could complain to them. So I sent an email to that address, and no reply. I sent some more to that address, and two more that I found. Oh, and I practically burned the feedback page of their websites. I called again on Saturday, and I think I got the same guy. Again, I explained my problem, and he was more talkative this time. 

Apparently, Etisalat decided to block all "community websites". I find this really ironic for a self-proclaimed "advanced country." How could you be advance if you're burning people's web bridges? 

He offered to give me the same email address but I told him that I already sent an email, and it was no use. He was kind enough to look into it, and asked for the reference number of the email. I gave him the first one, because it was more persuasive and civil, and not close to a threat. And then, nothing.

But guess what I found this morning? An email from Etisalat apologizing for their mistake. But the stupid thing was, they asked for the URL , when the topic of my email was "DEMAND TO UNBLOCK SHELFARI.COM."

Seriously..what is going on in there?

Still, I am happy I got that email. Finally something happened!
