  1. Re:My school district had a similar policy... on 8th Grader Suspended for Using 'net send' Command · · Score: 1

    Yeah, well this is a smallish county I'm talking about. A single high-school gets all of the funds for the entire school district. That being said the quality of the school & teachers was, much, much better in the samller county than when I lived in the nearest large (1 mil+ population) city.

    Kings & Knights? Space vehicles (those aren't sensors on there)? Pirates? (I think they even had a "British Navy" type set to set against the pirates.)

    They must mean no *modern* military themes.

    Tell me about it, I was forcibly made to learn gwbasic in 9th grade & now I can't seem to get my head around *any* programming language that isn't structured similarly.

    You had some serious morons for teachers. Where I went to (public) school, any kind of interest in anything that might help you actually succeed in life was normally considered a good thing. It sounds more like your teachers ego was bruised & taking it out on you.
