Huh, you are in a Special Ed class? Or do you have a learning disability?

Yeah, I'm in Speciel ed, and I really dont know why. All the teachers say I'm to advanced for the class, but the school councilors wont give me a mainstream class. Infact, I'm in the 11th grade and their just now giving me an algebra glass... which I'm acing by the way.

I just realized what he said - perhaps he's in a school like mine, where they offer people with learning disabilities special programs and classes... (I'm in the scholars program there, meaning I take all the advanced courses... but if I wish to continue Sophmore year, I need a B+ Average...)

I really dont know. I get high honor roll all the time. (All A's) you think I proven myself to them by now.

Too bad - I find school much more fun when I'm challenged...

For Example:

My honors English teacher is one of the best teachers I've ever had, but one of the hardest.

Every day, he'll ask a vocab word (i.e. licentious)
If we don't get in 3 seconds, he'll slam his hand down on the desk, and shout, "Lineup!"

Meaning I'd have to go after school, into a line with everyone else who missed a vocab word, and when I come up to the teacher, he'd ask me 3 or 4 words - if I get any wrong, I have to the back of the line - if I get em all right, I go home.
Repeat last step.
Third time through, if I get any wrong, he throws me to the side, and makes me study for around 30-40 min.

I've never memorized so many vocab words in my life....

I think it's a bit depressing that they haven't moved you up - I say, complain about this...

Do your parents know about your situation?

By the way, everything like that, that you find (Well-known user or not), post a link here or document it as good as possible.

of course, thanks for the help. Ozcar has been contacted... should be gone in a few hours

Bueno - nice to know - and no problem.

And also, here's a link to Elephant Barney's latest creation... *sighs*

Hopefully the Newgrounds users are intelligent enough to block this crap...

I wouldn't delete someone's account. I would keep it if the person change their mind. That happends.

Usually all the Barney Bunch stuff gets blammed. The only way that they get on the portal is through the ol'switcheroo.

Meh, why are they accusing you for being "unliked by all"? >=\

As Ozcar offered for me when I was contemplating leaving.

Even if it only was one who came back to Newgrounds, they would regret that they wanted their account deleted.

heh... I attempted to take a screenshot of a very odd event recently... I saw someone's text in pink on the list of useres - it was some random kid - I attempted to take a screenshot 6 times, and no matter how many times I followed the instructions, I could only get a full screenshot (of my entire screen...) - oh well.

I then refreshed the page, and lo and behold, it was gone - the name too.

Quite a rise in complaints against the mods latly, we've had a lull, but I guess piece can't be around forever.

I admit, I'm suprised myself at the lack of complaints at the current moment - most of the time, I see large all out "mods come here" crap - but today, it seems any I see on the BBS are nice, quiet, and rather well stated, as not to incite flaming. But, come weekend, imgine the chaos...

I asked for proof that the alt was -Dawkins- by having text in -Dawkins- sig changed. He responded by changing his entire profile and in it saying that the alt was indeed his. And then he said that I, Sanch, and redface (i think) were oblivious to the fact that everyone hated us...

I don't really care all that much, but considering I was just trying to find out what was going on his response was a bit over the top.

I agree - don't worry - we don't hate you - only the 90% stupid part of Newgrounds hate you, and I think their mostly limited to the General forum.

Seriously though, we don't hate you. Your one of the more intelligent people on NG, and it sets you apart from the rest. Being intelligent on the BBS is a rare thing, and it's something I can say I'm only mediocre at. But I respect you - no matter how weird your alias is... (I was just thinking about it... and...)

Purple? I'm wondering how these people get these colors to appear...

Ah yes, a level 3 n0ob with no site has a pink name... not likely to be a site affiliate.

There is a difference between spamming and flaming. Obviously you don't know the difference. Flaming is allowed, spamming isn't.

It's more like saying a dog and a human are mammals because they both give live birth and are warm blooded.

BTW the example of your useless post I cited wasn't flaming.
