That reminds me of back when I was in high school. The IT guy was a big gamer and had installed RainbowSix on all the machines in the computer lab so we could play against each other during lunch time including himself.
One stuck up, self-righteous teacher heard about the game and tried to have the IT guy delete it from all the computers because they were “violent games that had no business being in school”. He refused and the school’s administration seemed to have his back on it. So during a computer class she instructed the entire class to delete the game folder from their computer and empty the recycle bin and then leave the file explorer open so she could walk around and see that it has been done.
While everyone else were deleting theirs I copied the game folder on my machine elsewhere, then deleted the original to show her that it wasn’t there anymore. After she was gone I moved the folder back where it belonged and shared it on the network so everyone else could copy it back into their computer. The following lunch break it took less than 5 minutes to get the game back on everyone’s computer and we kept playing like nothing happened. Get fucked, hag.
I actually got all of Civilization 2 by finding it randomly installed on a single PC in one teacher’s classroom.
Copy and pasted the entire directory to a zip disk that I uh… borrowed… brought said zip disk to another computer in the school computer lab that had both a zip drive and a cd burner, burned it onto a blank cd i had, cleared the zip disk, returned it, brought the cd home, copied over the game files, played civ 2 on my piece of shit eMachine that did not have a zip drive.

The surprising part here is that the school sided with the IT guy.
We just played Counter Strike 2D from a flash drive.
Those LAN parties with the entire class were insane and there was nothing they could do since it wasn’t installed.
