If you don't like to get into (mostly) intelligent and lengthy debates, then just don't go to Just Chat, because it isn't for you. Don't come here and insult it for being the way it is. It's different than this forum. No better and no worse, just different. That's all.

My schedule was 'bout the same difficulty last year (Senior this year, junior last year). My knowledge of IB is it is about the same as AP, maybe its different in other countries... (aka: more difficult). I guess I slack off enough in these classes that it doesn't matter so much...

It certainly is. Several of my friends in Australia did the International Baccalaureate, and are now studying at prestigious American Universities. Of course, I didn't, and I'm studying at one anyway...
But nevertheless, the IB is a great way to get into Universities in countries other than your own. Practically all of them accept it as a qualification for entry.
Gah, you suck. Being foreign helps at private universities, no? I know it does for say Rice U in Houston.

One more thing. I'm sick of seeing people insult Just Chat for reasons like "the posts there are too long", or "you can't debate there, it's impossible". BS. It's very possible to debate things on Just Chat, which is why dozens and dozens of people do it. Yeah, some people there like to drag things out and kill you on semantics. SOME people there, not all. If you think that everyone on Just Chat is like that, you're just showing how little you understand it.

Well, most people regard ATT as the regular trash pit.
Example:
a generic annoying newbie (1337hACKoRZRomg) posting on Banter:
1337hACKoRZRomg: LOL u laME MAK uSERZ OmG WTf
Everyone: Stop spamming, go to ATT, it's just the place for you.

Okay, I dislike Just Chat for one reason: It's generally very, very boring. I regualarly look there for something even remotley interesting-usually nothing.
As for The Infidel, i remember him on BnB, but not too well...what did he do?

That depends on the university, really. The admissions rate for Yale is somewhere around 10% for general admissions, but closer to 3% for international students. On the other hand, some of the other universities aggressively market for foreign students - I received a letter from the University of Texas looking to get me in.

Over time, he got all the mods and moki tired of his behavior and sufficiently pissed off at him to warrant an ip ban by the administration.

Oh my.
It's a shame though. It was nice having an extreme leftist to do battle with htjyang where the rest of us tired and gave up.

Woah--sorry. I was not aware that he was so disliked. I had never seen him spam, so I didn't know. In fact, I didn't see him post too much at all.
Quote
Now, that was taken out of context-
having a serious discussion with andrew can be very intimidating. That's all I meant. I like andrew, more so now than ever. I liked the fact that The Infidel just didn't back down. I never saw him throw personal insults around at all. It was a mistake, Pikeman. It was an ignorant comment. That's all. I don't have some kind of personal vendetta against authority figures on the boards, so don't think that I do.
Shoot- I can't think of a closure for this
I dunno.
Sorry?
