Hi! Again!

I´m not sure how this impacts or fits in the Tor network. Before running Tor as a server, I had made the decision to block any 
connection (to and from) Korean and Chinese IPs. I know this is rash and I hate the notion that I´m in a way censoring these 
countries. But I get so much crap from IPs originating there that I declared it unsafe to connect to.

My preocupation now is that being part of the Tor network, I am breaking connections to and from those countries. Will the Tor 
nodes "sense" that this is happening and avoid my node for those connections? Considering my policy, am I fit to be a part of this 
network?

All your comments are appreciated. thanks
