Maybe you should write an email, that would waste more time, and let them know how much time you waste on geekzone. And that you expect your productivity to increase X% by them moderating your PC usage.

Funny, how they did not mention the amount of time spend reading the online media, as opposed to the paper at your lunch break, and then waiting until the 6pm news?

We cannot live without such "distractions" - well I can't - cuz often online forums such as Geekzone provides more stimulation than work!

I prefer not to spend my leisure time surfing the net or partaking in forum activity.

I feel that Forum activity and internet surfing are hugely productive passtimes that my employer would encourage greatly, if they ever found out how many hours I spent enriching my knowledge of all things.
