Well, I'm home schooled, so any thing stolen at "school" would be stolen from my house.

Not to long ago some jerk stole my bike. It was right next to the house and a few feet from my front door. Our door was open (we like to leave it open on week ends) and we have a glass door (basicly like a screen door but glass). And some one stole my bike, in the middle of the day, with our front door open while we (we as in my family) were home!!

The nerv of some people. . .:'(

My school doesn't allow you to bring any games. Music isn't accepted, either, but most teachers let you listen if you can do your work at the same time. As for me, I had my GBA stolen a few years back...The good thing was that it broke earlier that day when someone kicked where I put it. And I had a spare at home.

Plus, the person who took it gave me $20 if I wouldn't tell anyone. ^_^

If you have had anything valuable stolen from you (at school?). ^^;

I don't think I've ever had anything stolen from me at all. I'm lucky, I guess. *shrug*

I'm only allowed to bring a cellphone to school, and no, I never got stolen in my 15-year-old life. You have to admit going to school with a GBASP and a DS, and leaving them in an open box was just plain stupid. Anyway, I suggest ya tell the principal someone stole you. Remember, your school actually had the responsability of making sure noone stole you. If the principal does nothing at all, well, tell a teacher or the police about it. No one steals something without punishment!

meh, really not into the gaming industry that much so i'm kinda stupid, really the point there was to look at the other side of the argument instead of just pitying him XD

But then, looking at the principal's responce to that makes me kinda mad that they would just blow it off like it was nothing. Did you talk to the guy that was supposed to be watching the stuff yet?

The guy/girl that stole my bike got away without punishment.

Someone stole Poké Lover?

Like a few others, I share less pity due to the utter stupidity. >> Seriously, I brought my GBC to school a fair few times for a few reasons:
1) Lunch
2) Trading
3) I brought my Legendary Super Warriors game in so my friend could help me get somewhere.

Something stolen... Not from school as such. I got a Pocket Pikachu Colour (Didn't keep it for very long. :( ) and when we went to Queensland it may have been stolen. That's what's assumed. I haven't seen it for years. Same might have happened to TCG but I got another copy.

It was stupid of me to take both my handhelds and their games to school. You always think to yourself, "nah this will never happen to me" and then when it does your screwed. I'v learned my lesson the hard way and I'm definately not going to be taking any more expensive things to school again.

Forest Grovyle April 30th, 2006 8:24 AM

That really sucks. :( I totally agree that if they offered the service to keep your valuables in a safe place, it is their responsibility to look after them and not yours. You're taking the initiative to put them where you expect them to be safe; it's not your fault if they go missing. >_<

I've never had anything of mine stolen, thank goodness, but my aunt had her house broken into twice :( They took her credit card but luckily didn't get any of her money because the bank was very suspicious.

Gengar894 May 25th, 2006 6:12 AM

In my school electronic stuff is banned so my stuff has never been sold.

Demonta May 25th, 2006 6:16 AM

That sucks real bad. Especialy as you gave the things to the teacher for safekeeping

Bekki May 25th, 2006 11:03 AM

Well when I was 12 (10 years ago) I had both my old brick like Gameboys and GBC (when it first came out) stolen and also my old school had a "bring stuff at your own risk" attitude (sp). I still don't know who stole considering that the grammer school that i went to nearly had 1000 pupils.

I was so furious and becasue my school has the "you bring your possesions at your own risk" policy, I couldn't really do anything about it.
That was over $300 worth of stuff there all gone.
Anyone else had their handhelds or anything else expensive stolen like this at school?

(Just thought I'd get this of my back, lol.)

wow..how could you not do anything about it?!I'd go insane......but that's me,and I know cuz it happened before......when I was little I had a GBC....a bully came right up to me,.....heh....thinking that I WAS WEAK....he took it right outta my hands and walked away....but I got to him,beat him up ,but one of my punches hit the GBC and broke it....but he also baught me a new one when I told my mom!!!!!!

Samurai X May 25th, 2006 3:41 PM

I have never had anything stolen from me but then again I never take anything expensive to school although I have taken my DS to school but only once and it was because we had finals and my elective class has no final so it's just kick back time for two hours. My friend however had his iPod stolen from him but I found out who stole it through other people and I got it back for him.

Makoto May 25th, 2006 5:11 PM

i had something similar happen...

My uncle Jake put a backlight in my old GBA (not SP, original model GBA).

I was playing my DS, and let Ablovi (a girl on my bus) play my GBA. I forget about it, and ask her for it back on my bus the next day. She says Efren, a kid in my 4th period class, took it. Efren says he has nothing to do with it. So Ablovi says Efren took it, Efren says he never even got it. No clue who actually took it, but I've tried and tried and have yet to get it back from either of them.... I've all but given up. :(

cryogenics May 25th, 2006 6:38 PM

I've brought expensive electronic equipment to class (my iPod mini, my mobile, and my PDA), but thankfully, nothing has been stolen. I think I'll only bring my mobile from now on, though.

Memory May 26th, 2006 11:29 AM

Aww. Sorry to hear that.
I got a headband stolen from me once... xD but finally she admitted it but I never got it back. |D;;;

Aegis May 27th, 2006 9:06 AM

I had my gameboy color, cell phone, pencil, and jeans stolen all at once one time... (I was in Gym and an 8th grader snuck into our locker room and stole my stuff...)

The Fallen May 27th, 2006 2:03 PM

Someone stole my PSP from me; a friend that hasn't been to my house since. I ended up getting it back from him though. It was kind of obvious when he didn't come back for a while and wouldn't call or talk to me.

Whiplash June 24th, 2006 7:02 AM

Karma Dude June 25th, 2006 5:08 AM
