uh just to let you all know.... there is a navy group that has 10,000+ members and nothing has happened to those guys. also there's a navy depper group with quite a few people. i just started the group so people could ask questions and get questions answered, not to get people in trouble or throw up a red flag.

btw- if you do have bad stuff on ur myspace and have posted etc. you can always delete it and all of your posts and comments EVERYTHING gets deleted with it.

One of the problems with sites like MySpace and the like, is that even if your page is totally innocuous you are linked to all of your friends. Your friends, who may or may not have anything to lose by acting like a total retard and letting the rest of the world know it, may have something incriminating posted about you that you are not even aware of.

clearly not being a dumb@ss is paramount here, but also, I doubt the Navy will have a problem w/ an NROTC myspace group that is made up of high schoolers :p

Listen kid, we've been there and done that. Stuff like myspace and facebook do nothing but fvck midshipmen over. All that needs to happen is a friend of yours posting a pic of you doing something stupid, then you're in trouble

[threadjack/] Not sure if any of you have heard of the Academy's new alcohol policy this year called "0-0-1-3," meaning 0 underage drinking, 0 DUIs, 1 drink/hr, 3 drinks total/night. They are even breathalyzing people this year upon returning from liberty. Alot of people are waiting for alot of people to get into trouble. We'll see how it works out when it happens more often. Alot of upperclass are up in arms about this.
Sounds like a deployment I did where we were only "allowed" one drink per night. Riiiiiiggggght.

Beats having mids fall out of fourth floor windows of Bancroft and be found deceased the next morning.

I know of this happening twice since I've been at USNA.

If mids can't follow the rules, do they need to be protected from themselves?

Just to put some further emphasis on what Nozeman has said....

Don't post pics of yourself or others on Facebook or MySpace doing stupid sh!t or drinking. It just leads to trouble. It is evidence and I have seen many people get in trouble for pics posted online. I went to school with NozeMan, and he can vouch for this, but at our school all the officers regularly checked profiles on Facebook and MySpace. Many underage Mids were caught red-handed drinking and several upperclass were caught in pics drinking with the underclass. Those upperclass were also punished for not stopping the underage drinking or providing alcohol. Just be conscious of what ends up on the net concerning you....

Just think of all this as a friendly warning. Trust me, if you make a MySpace and Facebook account in college, your NROTC staff will look at it. They ALL do it, it's even been discussed at their conferences in Pensacola. I'm not telling you to not join those sites or anything, but why make trouble with ALL NROTC people?

Schnugg, you've been brainwashed. You need to cleanse yourself from everything you learned over in 5th Fleet AOR.

If certain mids can't follow the rules anyway, then what good is a 0/0/1/3 policy? A recurring theme with people that don't follow the rules is that they don't follow the rules. It doesn't matter if they're enlisted, midhipmen, or officers. I honestly don't understand the systematic tendency of senior leaderhip treating adults like children.
