    Do people get caught ilegally downloading stuff?
    Can you watch streaming video without getting detectred eg. Lost
    Can you share files among users in the network ie. a shared folder?

    thanks for any info.

    the college is entirely firewalled off, so if you wanna dl anything it'll have to come through the proxies, and air vent lil ole chappy, your only comparing him to the same users on that drive, all the highest space users are staff and post grads. Last i check i'm 3 times higher than any student(tho alas all legal :/ )

    I hate to say it vent mate, but he's right. Serenity being one of the maths account law enforcement officers. Bastard can delete/open anything on our accounts.. It's his job. They give him a desk, office and money to do it

    I refuse to get drawn into this slagging match. I do not appriciate that post. If I said that I'd be banned straight out.

    But alas the moderators are wel biased towards anything anti me.


    With regards to the topic, whats with all this no no its agianst the rules better not do it incase i might get caught. LIve a little, once you dont download porn or anthing sick wheres the harm ????

    The maths accounts are there to be abused memory wise, no harm is being done!!!!!!

    i didn't say that.

    unfortunately i have to agree with air_vent, sigh... but banning seems to be handed out on a very biased basis and mods give their mates and people who side with them too much leeway...

    also there was absolutely no jest in fade's comments, who (him/her)self is quite judgemental and often seems to be inciting arguments.

    Banning is handed out based on continious muppetry.

    There was, the 2 boy's are over in belgium together.


    uhh if only people would stop commenting before knowing the full story....
