Think of what you are talking about.

Kids with access to video equipment and high speed data transfer....no one will be watching the teacher, they will be downloading video games, porn, and pirated movies.... and sexting each other.

Not if it was a mobile device like a Kindle that only connected to the class lectures.

Exactly, let me guess wildly, jd has no kids.


It is hard enough to get them out of bed to go school and do homework and etc etc etc. so lets let them stay home on the internet unmonitored all day.

Brilliant.

Dont worry I will give my opinion anyways.
The PvP MMO is NOT a "niche" market, Mythic is just a "niche" company.

This thread begs the question: do the "women" of ACF use a funnel to get that much sand in their vagina or do they just slide around the beach like an angry Roomba? -deadcactus-

It's tempting. But at the same time they need to learn to socialize with others. it's a catch 22.

I don't buy the notion that school is where we learn to socialize. I learned to socialize outside of school. In school teachers were always crabbing about people talking in class. Ask me, I say there is way too much socializing going on. That's why the Chinese are passing us.

Assign them socialization homework. They must spend an hour on acf each day. That'll learn 'em.

See? That's exactly what we need, problem solvers. Not complainers.
