What Are You Doing Right Now

Ha that was back when Ebaum's World was really big. Our school had a proxy server set up, but I figured out one day all we had to do was uncheck the use proxy server option and we had unfettered access to everything haha. We had some geniuses working at the school.

Interestingly enough, I still have the original box, instructions (Printed cards with key bindings etc) and I have the mislabeled disc version (Multiplayer disc is the "Master Game" disc & "Master Game" Disc is the Multiplayer disc).

It might be worth something one day... or not I don't care.
Also of interest, it's 20 years old next year.Buddy of mine from Highschool ran around installing it on all of the computers in the Library.... from FLOPPY... He waited until the Librarians weren't looking, lol.
In our High School it was Quake. Everyone played Quake all of the time haha.
Ah yep... I was the one who managed to get it installed on a network share and was giving the link out to other kids.... it was still there five years later when I started working at the school. Felt terrible having to undo my hard work.
Why would you?
Because no one else could figure it out... some of the librarians and lab teachers were complaining (and had been since I was in school).

ROFL. Shame on you. You should have at least hid it on another student's account.

We weren't allowed EXE files in our home drives. I had a game where you catapulted kittens at spikes that I'd put in load into my Home Drive and bury it under a massive directory structure ( H:\work\a\b\c\d\e\f\nothing\to\see\here\ etc %game%.exe.
Every day the game would be deleted and every day, I'd put it back... until the IT chap(s?) removed my access permission to the work folder. That wouldn't have been so bad but I was young and didn't know you could do that and I left my assignment for the computer class in the work folder... oh well, no more assignment... lol.

I found out you could use WP6's Drop to Shell to get into DOS from our Novell Netware system. One kid decided to go through and randomly delete stuff and wound up crashing the whole lab. That one actually wasn't my fault.

Some kids in the other lab discovered the net send command and spammed a heap of PC's in my lab. What they forgot was it displayed who sent the message.
They were easily tracked down and "spoken to" -

Great way to have a conversation with someone else in the same lab without having to talk.

@coliver I'd love to get it. Looks like piles of NSFK (not safe for kids) fun

n00bs @ cost are trying to sell me their crap again at 80% off.
This makes me wonder, which bit of the server do I get if they've removed 80% of it?
