yet again why would they search out of nowhere... thats pointless time wasteing to search 900+ kids names at random...

Two things:

1. How do you know they just deiced to randomly look up your name? What if they just happened to stumble upon it? Facebook is a web of links to other people. The more friends you have (and the more friends they have, and so on) the more likely someone is going to stumble onto your page.

What if one of the parents of your friends (or friend's friend) stumbled onto your page and then reported it to the school?

There are literally hundreds of different ways and scenarios that could have led to the discovery of your FB page.

2. How they found it or why they found it really shouldn't matter. The fact is: they found it. Knowing the reasoning behind it is not going to somehow get you off the hook. Once again, it's a public website. Access is granted to everyone. You don't have to be a spy to be able to learn about someone from FB.

I mean, unless the person who found your page broke into your house and read it off of your computer, you cannot fault them for breaking any privacy laws or anything.

Also, the fact you keep implicitly suggesting that your school has no social responsibility to ensure you grow up with a working moral compass is a reason in itself for them to keep an eye on you...

TL;DR: It's their job to look after you! In loco parentis, anyone?

Renguard is a wonderful initiative

It will probably be noted in your school record. So better stay clear until you graduate, tbh.

You can find me in The KOSs2 (TK2) discord while I'm playing. Feel free to come and say hi! TK2 discord

We can only hope, but of course you're right. Some people never learn.

Okay, if you are going to be talking about shit that can actually get you in trouble you should at least not do it under your real name, its common sense. I say the school has the right to get at certain information, especially if it's as easily accessible as a public post on Facebook (now whether or not it's a good use of their time and civilian tax dollars (searching Facebook posts) is another topic all together).
