| Re: BYOI said by Chiyo  :Why not just setup a private hub or something full of stuff? sheesh I know of a few at some local universites taht were just as good. Had all the biggest, latest stuff people wanted. Don't students actually study anymore? 
Back in the last millennium when I was an undergrad I must have spent just about all my non-class time working or studying. I guess I just missed out on all the fun.

| Re: BYOI Me too.
Work, class, study, REPEAT
Worked 2 jobs, a full time internship, 12 additional credits and an independent study on a 400 level Sociology course all in my last semester.
I slept through my graduation party. Hard to believe it was more than 10 years ago.
Still have the student loan payments to prove it!

| Re: BYOI .... Ya ya we all worked hard and we all were busy. It doesn't mean that like for the last 50 or 60 years, that college kids don't have spare time on their hands to do other things. 1960's were protests and now 2000+ is p2p. Nothing new, nothing old. | |

1 edit | O cut your usual crap PNH. Seriously, colleges have always been about 75 percent study and 25 percent party or leisure. Since colleges have been around college kids have gotten in to trouble for one thing or another. In the 60s it was protests and now in the 2000+ its p2p. I'm not justifying it, but nor is it some shocking revelation where we all must pretend to gasp. It happens, face it. The RIAA isn't even proving their case by these letters. However, most people tend not to fight them due to legal costs. What's to say these affected computers weren't part of a net of hacked drones? While I doubt that to be the case, it's still possible. Botnets and hacked computers wreak havoc on many ISPS. There's nothing to say that said computer isn't hacked and used as someone else's storage and proxy to share said files. Either way, get off the kick bud. I don't even know why I bother replying to you, as rarely do your comments add ANY BIT of relevance to ANY conversation on dslreports. | |

| Re: BYOI said by KoolMoe :I dunno, I exited the college track with a 3.2 GPA in my undergrad major and a 3.8 in my grad school MS degree. I finished with a 3.2 as well for my undergrad degree... but I had a hard time earning it. If I hadn't studied as much as I did... I would have flunked out. As for grad school, I slacked... I pulled a 3.1, which of course is just above barely passing

| LOL Kool me. I never lived on campus but I found time to do stupid things in my spare time with friends. I ended my grad with approx 3.2 as well. It was all that wonderful thing called a balance, as you put it. The thing that sucked for me was I lived 30 miles away from my school and did the commute daily. Therefore, I really couldn't party on campus. It'd been quite hard to get back =P for such a long drive being screwed. Therefore, I made it up with friends where I lived LOL. Either way, unlike PNH who absolutely must be the "SPOCK" of all humanity (without the logic, just the seriousness), I found time to have fun. Hey, I even passed too and never failed a class. In all the time I was in college, I only dropped one class (didn't need it) and got a pity pass on another. Yet, I never failed. So yes PNH, people can have lives. Hey get this, I even got a 4.0 on my Masters. So I guess you just suck at balancing things would be the moral of this story PNH. Maybe you should invest in time management classes =P. | |

said by jc100 :said by pnh102 :And you're a teacher? Says the man who criticizes others while using A FRAGMENT and beginning a sentence with a conjunction. Actually, my question is grammatically correct. Furthermore, even if I had made a grammatically incorrect statement by ending the above with a period instead of a question mark, it would not be a fragment.
And no, I am not a teacher.

| Re: BYOI Sigh. First, I referred to the fact you STARTED a sentence with the word AND. And = Conjunction. Therefore, you created a sentence fragment. You're question is as follow: And you are a teacher? Notice, the word and is a conjunction and links two sentences together. What are you linking here? Please elaborate. It has nothing to do with ending that given sentence with a period. So FAILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL would be your word of week. Next time, don't criticize others if you can't even do so properly. As for the word very, I am aware of it. However, that word would also fit my sentence. Vary in terms of new aspects is fine. Either way, I have nothing to prove since you fail at judging others. Once again, PNH comes out missing. | |

said by jc100 : And = Conjunction. Therefore, you created a sentence fragment. Yawn. A sentence fragment is something which cannot stand on its own as a sentence. My original question could, so hence, it is not a fragment.
said by jc100 :Notice, the word and is a conjunction and links two sentences together. You already stated that English wasn't your best subject, so I understand that you may not be able to recognize a properly formed English question.
said by jc100 :So FAILLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLLL would be your word of week. Is that even a word? Maybe you need to go back to "what" and find out if they speak English there.

| Re: BYOI A) English might not be my best topic but nor is it yours. Go google the word conjunction. Conjunction junction what's your function. Have you ever heard of that phrase? I guess school house rock didn't teach you anything. A conjunction is meant to link two sentences together. You can't get yourself of this one. You failed miserably. The FAILLLLLLLL was meant for emphasis. Obviously, you noticed that and realized it applied to your lame attempt at criticizing others. Back to the topic, you can thank your teachers for your ability to read and write. Not to mention, you can thank them for the job you have or are working towards. If it weren't for them, you would be asking if customers would want big or small fries with that order. | |

I don't see how you are in any position of authority to evaluate my perfect English skills.

"But you haven't proved that my question is grammatically incorrect." The word but is a conjunction and IT LINKS two sentences or thoughts together.
Seriously PNH, don't thank anyone for your own stupidity. You're about as lame as it gets here bud. I'm done with this conversation. It's proven time and time again, your basis and delusional tendencies far outweigh arguing with. No wonder you joined the military, you were far too inept to handle the real world so you had to let others dictate your life. This shouldn't be construed in the sense that people who join the military are dumb. However, some like yourself have no other choice, when mother nature gave you nothing else to work from. Obviously, it should be noted all conversations with you go off track and focus on the mundane. At which point, you fail miserably at trying to hash that out, when you make the same mistakes. | |

NJIT is probably more along the lines of 95% study and 5% leisure (usually World of Warcraft). I can't recall any good parties taking place here... There is a 15:1 male to female ratio and if there are any females, they are probably Muslims with the cloth over their heads. Good thing is that this school is literally right across the street from Rutgers - Newark, which is completely opposite when it comes to study / party and girls per guy.

| Re: BYOI You're looking at the wrong school. This is the University formerly known as UMR (though the guy/girl ratio is a little better then what yours was - 10:1). I graduated from there 2 years ago and you really don't understand the need to study. I played WoW for about 80% of the time and studied about 5% and still had just under an A- avg. This is an engineering school with a ton of nerds - of course they're going to be downloading. I'd assume they just wised up to downloading internally from servers and sharers we had instead of going externally to be caught - faster and no RIAA police. The other thing to realize is that it takes 5 min to queue up 20 songs to DL and you listen to music WHILE studying or gaming or whatever. | |
