Well if you have my MSN you may know this or if you looked in the BZ2MD Chezoria forum you may have noticed but ill post it here anyway.
Instead of home schooling like i thought, i will be doing the exact opposite and going away to school this year.
I will be leaving on the 22nd so from then on i will no longer be on MSN or BZ2. And yes Chezoria will no longer be produced. RRV however is coming along and whenever i get to come home i will work on it. I have read their rules and i MAY be able to, at designated times, play BZ2 there since the game itself only violates one (out of many) kinda stretchy rule. (maybe a half an hour a week...) Then again i will help run their computer lab (damn good computers for a school by the way 0,o) so that puts me higher up on the chances.
Well if you see me on bz2 today or tomorrow make sure to come join me! For it may be your last time for a looooong time.
good luck cheese. laters. come back soon :P
good luck, enjoy yourself as much as you can without us :D
Just out of interest, what is this one rule...?
You will be missed...bye...
but you will be coming back when you can right?

No science fiction or fantasy, but i am hoping i can make them budge on this rule seeing as the people there are not old and grumpy.
@ Mr X
Yeah ill come back when i can.

Where the hell are you going? Beijing??
It is a seventh day Adventist school.
Bon voyage, your puffliness. Keep yer nose in the books.

Can't play rock there so i cannot.
I would have turned tail and ran.
There are no unicorns in BZ2, therefore it is not a fantasy.
There is no Captain Picard in BZ2, therefore it is not science fiction.
It seems this place is taking things a little too far. I have never met a sane christian who honestly believed that rock music was a creation of the devil... which it would seem they do.
Apologies to any christians here who believe rock music is a cretion of the devil.
As for BZ2... pfft. BZ2 is explicitly not Science Fiction, since everything is explained and is very possible. For all we know, Biometal might well exist. The asteroid may damn well have been a planet. It could all happen.
Oh well, I'm arguing against something that's not going to give in.
It does seem odd to have banned science fiction and adopt fictional science. :-D :-D :-D

About a week ago I had a little discussion with someone about the big bang. Now know that I've been raise as a Christian, I just dropped the believe as I do not think it is 'the truth', but I do know a fair bit about it ..
The other person went almost bezerc cause he wouldnt even accept me saying that I believe religion has no place in how humanity came to life and it is all directly related to the big bang.
Exactly what is being discussed here is why I reject belief. Belief shouldnt be about what you can and cant, but very often it seems that that is exactly how it is used. Kudos to all that belief with all their hart "with an open mind" ;)
Anyway, I hope you have great Lan-parties where you go cheesemaster :wink:

Hell you can't play Jazz there!
According to the rules it is something about emotion.
Now that IS rediculous. I don't like religious schools, they don't teach the most important subjects properly (science) and the others aren't done very well anyway.
I'm beginning to wonder why you haven't bailed out. Devout parents?
Like Red, I was a christian until recently... but religion simply doesn't fit with everything we know about... everything. Things just don't go.
Cannot have Jazz and rock? How is that possible? I mean rock, perhaps some Christian schools are stricter but Jazz has to be ok...
I bet even pop music is not allowed.
Anyways good luck on your studying, hope you wil be back soon! :-D
Ah yes, Catholicism (in my case, but it's Christianity in general), the one thing that retains Communist grip on the "free world".
I went practically insane going to a Catholic School... and my social skills got pretty much shot down the drain due to me being the only "oddball". (In some very crappy computer class, they brought in slides of their favorite saint, i brought in one on 3DS Max :P, and STILL got a better grade than them.)
That's also where I learned to put together a computer properly (Had us repair crap comps for a grade)... damn you exploitation.
Sounds like a more useful IT lesson than we've ever had... 'Ah, look, here's a Microsoft Office program! Let's take twelve months learning how to use it, and then we can move on to another one next year!'
And this goes on right the way through to A-levels. All applied Microhoote Office until you're 18... Oh dear.

You mean the kind of class that, given the right circumstances, people like us would be better off teaching it? I hate those.
Here is the title bar... here is the menu bar... 10 points if you can hide the ruler. Test friday open note open PC internet if needed.
I can tell you how much drool you needed to wipe off these students' faces, along with the drool from me due to my brainnumb.
In all honesty it is ALOT better than it sounds, but Seventh Day Adventists are a bit more traditional than most(I nor my parents are though).
Their computers are damn good actually. (for school computers anyway) Fairly up to date specs. I will be getting a job to help maintain them ^.^
But for the most part they are trying to provide a religious/academic/social experience.
I am not against the formal encryption of tribal/social extelligence patterns in general, its a good thing on the whole and by definition it does have to be unusual and different from everyone else.
hope you have a positive experience this year! :-)
bye cheesepuffly!
Will they have *cheeeeeessse* there???
lol at red. Ive played a few games with ya cheese and your a good player do come back and play more when ya can. Pm me if possible when playing :).
*Ammo* me son, this is a school? Screw that.
You'll be missed. Try not to kill yourself. I would.
Well judging from how you've responded, you don't seem bothered at all by it, so, good luck with your studies! It actually sounds like quite an interesting experience, that I can't even imagine of...
...though, one of my favorite quotes is: "Music is what feelings sound like." Sounds like you're not going to listen to any music.
THOU SHALT FEEL NOTHING!
Anyone seen Equilibrium? Heh.

As a religious fanatic, he will absoloutely love it.
What I want to know is why any (sane) person would want to go to a school that is probably even worse than a prison.
At least prisons don't restrict imagination.
PS: If the headmaster asks you to spank him... do it. Then later escape... and remember to cut off your hands. The consequences of refusing him would be far more severe than the loss of your hands.
lol @ BBB =P
good luck to u man, like most ppl here i wouldnt be able to take it either..no rock music? thats all i live for! =D
QuoteYou remind me of Ruddspeak:
Sorry, I've been reading books again. :roll:
yeh the school bums. even as a semi-religiiousy person i wouldn't hack it. id go mad.
Jamsh my man, even I can spell relijun better than 'semi-religiiousy'
wups... it was pretty early. You all know what i meant :P
you can't even play rock? imagine someone playing death metal or hardcore lol
exactly why i wouldn't survive XD
So? What about post-rock? Techno? Country? Blues? Gospel?
Music isn't just rock and jazz, you know.
What about Christian metal?
theres no such thing as christian metal

Music isn't linked to religion in any way at all, and I can name a load of christians who like metal. What are you talking about?
"BURN IN HEAVEN"
"BURN IN HEAVEN"
"IN JESUS's GLORY"
I heard it once. Granted that was a small snip-it of a "Moral Oral" episode.
Music is used to express belief a lot of the time, yes, but I still wouldnt say they're explicitly linked. Certainly not all music, anyway.
