Oh my GOD! school administrators are sooooooo dumb!

they freak out when you get into MSDOS/Command prompt

Tuesday, January 11, 2005 by MadPyro | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

so funny. it started with a net send message to my friend saying "hi"

problem is that we arent supposed to be able to get into drive C: to access the command.com file right? wrong. easy enough to access it using any application out there. MORONS

ok, so i net send a message to my friend... that was yesterday...

today, 6th period, 2 security personelle come in to escort me to the friggin principals office. HA! i need no escort... i walk calmly to the office and sit down to wait.

chat a little with the security morons and find out that this is about MSDOS and me. quickly, i formulate a plan in my mind: bullshit em so much that they wont even know it.

so, finally, the principal calls me in and asks me to sit down, the two security morons on either side of me.

"so, do you know what this is about?"
"well kind of, steve [security moron #1] hinted that its about msdos stuff"
"yes, you see, we have disabled command prompt from these school computers for a reason, so that kids [pauses] cant harm the school's system and somehow, you managed to get into it and did something there..."
"yes?"
"and we feel that this may pose a threat to our system"
"*chuckle*"
"whats so funny?"
"well, you see, two things;
1. command prompt isnt disabled, its hidden in drive C: to which the system doesnt allow access.
2. MSDOS cant do much against xp. all i did was test sending a message to a friend using net send, it worked so i was like sweet!"
"yes and we feel that this can be a threat to us."
"sir, if i wanted to screw up the school system, there are alot easier ways of doing that. and if i wanted to screw it up, i would NOT use my account to do it from"
"hm..."
"see, on windows Xp, you disabled access to drive C:. when i am bored, i screw around... one day, while trying to load objects for lightwave into lightwave, i was forced to find a way to get into drive C:."
"yes...?"*takes notes*
"so, all i did was open lightwave, go file....open....browse... and in the address bar, type "C:". all that did was throw me to "my documents", i found this kind of funny since it should show "drive C: inaccessible" so i hit the "up one level" button and it took me back one level, i hit it a couple more times and Ooo... drive c: bingo! i opened lightwave and objects and i was able to load an object."
"yes? and how does this make you able to open command prompt?"
"same way i opened that i can open command.com... see? go windows/system32/command.com [opens it on hit computer]"
"i see... and how do you do this 'net send'thing?"
"*sigh* [type 'net send maloym test'] see? message arrives saying test"
"i see...."
*scribbles notes*
[i notice security morons leaning to see it too]
****bell rings****
"saved by the bell... can i go catch my bus? you can call me in tomorrow"
"ok, i will call you in around 3rd period"
"ok {[mutter] sheesh...}"

heart pounding, i pick up my backpack and head out the door... i walk by the front desk and notice the secretary staring at me with a dissaproving glance....

-----------to be continued tomorrow after the next debate--------------------

wish me luck, i cant get suspended, im a senior and i need to finish this year...

Wow, MadPyro! These guys don't know anything, so they think you broke everything in the PC yada yada blah... I thought people were less stupid in US' high schools! You know, I live in a kinda remote, and computers were not so common before something like 98' or so. Now I go to university, and in the library, there are kinda old PC with a modified version of IE on it, and believe me boy, it sucks! There are always things like script errors that happen and that's quite frustrating you know... And you CANNOT even type an address, 'cuz there's no address bar! But heck, that's far too easy to access explorer. So, everytime people ask me "how do I input addresses", I have to explain them they can't! Oh, and yeah, when I was in first year, I put some games on a particular PC so I could play when I didn't felt like working... The library employees couldn't prove I was playing since I had activated ALT+TAB!

So people, you see, there's nothing really harmful doin' funny stuff like MadPyro did, the only problem is that ignorant people always think you're doin' wrong 'cuz all they know is bullshit! Plus, there already are some viruses on the PCs, though there's a antivirus soft, so instead of arguing with people who just have fun, they should rather secure their PCs once for all!

Quoting Fuzzy Logic, reply 1295 years - shows you how dumb schoolkids are these days...

It's no different to when Moses used Arabic gum to clog up the abacus in high priest school... and getting dragged in chains before pharaoh to explain his actions.  Like many kids of today, Moses was suspended and not allowed to use the hieroglyphics library until he'd learned his lesson.

You're going to base your opinion on an entire generation of humans on one egotistical 12-year-old?  They're not all bad

Its funny how the previous generation say this about the next.

My old man use to blow up mail boxes with cherry bombs, egg houses, climb up peoples fruit trees for a feed and give the owner the finger when was caught out. And yet he will say how generation X and Y has no respect.

When I think the same way with gen Y, I have to take a few moments and remember how as a teen, I was a complete so and so and use to drive my old man nuts.

I must be getting old. Kids these days. Bah Humbug!!

Isn't that the norm down under? I mean....judging from Jafo.... as opposed to that paragon of civilized behavior and gentility (he's a Pom) starkers....

Doc you might be right. Its all that convict blood we come from.

Starkers and civilized, never the two words could meet. (I think you are forgetting about the cabbage)

I'm just wondering where the days of the early 2000s went.

Those days when the only computers in school ran Windows 98 and used Netscape.

That's what I remember from "computer lab". The most trouble I got in was installing StarCraft and using the school's "network" to run a LAN between myself and a few buddies. Not exactly smiled upon, but I didn't need to be told how to use a computer in school and found the teacher blabbing on for 45 minutes to be rather snooze-inducing.

Detention isn't so bad. lol
