Mine would have been the time I sent a mail bomb to one of my friends, using some Aenima program. None of the open mail servers would work, so I figured I'd just use my ISP's mail server. 1000 emails later, I got a call, and they're like "we would prefer you don't do things like that, so please don't." Hehe.

Hehe.

When my friend was in the dormrooms of UCI he put his hard drive on sharing, so that other people on their lan could leech from him. He gave me his ip and told me I could leech from him, and how a bunch of other people have warez and movies and such on sharing.

So, I spent the entire night scanning the entire dormrooms subnet looking for shares and leeching mp3s etc. I guess doing so altered the UCI admins, and they redflagged my IP and called my ISP. My isp called me up the next night and told me how I was breaking the law and how I was redflagged by UCI and all that junk. I just played innocent and pretended not to know what they were talking about. They didn't fall for it, but they never bothered me about it again.
