This computer would probably work better if I lit it on fire.

 

[MotF Bane]

admit it, if you were standing there, you would look too.

True. And if I had a chance to hit it, I would.

I'd hit both of them. One with a baseball bat, the other with something else.

 

[MotF Bane]

School has sent me lost item replacement notices, fees totaling $160. :hmm:

 

[MotF Bane]

I wonder what happens if they are returned now.

 

[sdifox]

ni

 

[MotF Bane]

A $30 lost fee? Bullshit.

 

[sdifox]

narf

 

[zzuupp]

ned

 

[MotF Bane]

Definitely not paying them any of this, they never notified me the book was overdue.

 

[sdifox]

narf again

 

[MotF Bane]

Ah, there's the overdue notice, it didn't forward out of my school email.

 

[MotF Bane]

How does their forwarding system break so frequently?

 

[MotF Bane]

Do they use chimps to run their servers?

 

[MotF Bane]

Two options I figure.

One is go in, tell them the email system didn't forward the notices, here's the books, and they can forget the fees.

Two is go in, stash the books back in the stacks where they belong, then email them after and say I already returned the books, and that they need to find them.

 

[MotF Bane]

I find there to be nothing objectionable about my choices there - that their email system failed to forward properly is not my fault. I suspect that the library will be as inflexible as everything else about that school, and thus, I consider the second option.

 

[MotF Bane]

Their library policies are not particularly clear.

 

[MotF Bane]

Nef.

Nerf.

 

[zzuupp]

be careful, their server admins might start flinging poo at you

I suspect that to be the limit of their abilities. Well, that and probably flooding the server room.

 

[MotF Bane]

I've actually seen the server room. It's half a dozen racks lined up next to each other. The only display in the room is a CRT that is at least as old as me. And the racks are about 80% empty.

 

[MotF Bane]

I've seen a couple people wandering in there occasionally. They inspire less confidence than would a teenager who screws around online on weekends.

 

[MotF Bane]

Nerf.

 

[MotF Bane]

The other thing they might say is that they are not responsible for the email system, or that I should've been checking my school email, or that the notices are not necessary but only out of politeness.

 

[MotF Bane]

I don't know how much power they have to enforce their fees. Can they disable my library borrower privilege? Fine, go ahead, I don't care all that much. Can they put a financial fee and/or hold on my account? That's a problem.
