I got in trouble once in high school just for discovering and then using `net send` to send a message to my friend that said "Hi from lab 3".

Computer lab access revoked for 6 weeks. Jokes on them, now I send socket messages to my friend that says "Hi from Chicago" and there's nothing they can do about it.

My friend however keeps begging me to use this thing called 'email' because he claims he doesn't see the socket messages.

everyone in my school net send bombed everyone all the time. Im not sure how they didn't figure out how to just turn it off.

but i remember you had to do it from a library computer, because it said who it sent it from. so you had to do a little drive by walking net send as you walked out of the library to not get caught

We would write scripts to essentially make net send DOS attacks on different labs.

Sorry you got access revoked. I accidentally did a net send (via the GUI) to the whole district domain instead of my friend in AP CS that said "Time for break!" right before the snack break.

In my next class, the teacher was talking about "Time for break" virus going around... :/

This was after the district IT wanted to suspend me for setting up a Windows 2000 domain for the yearbook lab, so I kept my mouth shut.

That was exactly how we used to do it, from where we used to do it, haha. Are you my friend? Rodrigo? How's the weather in Miami? How 'bout those 'Canes?

In our case it escalated to scripts with silent, random time delays. Launch it from a floppy, walk away and 87 minutes later everyone is wondering why a notice went out saying that a Toyota Corolla in the parking lot has its lights on.
