what

You got it wrong again. SDD scaling sucks because too many bludgers (who are shit at their other subjects) take it as a way to play "Slime-ball-tennis" and other rubbish like that during school hours.

software was one giant email/msn/games lesson for me because we rarely had a trained teacher to teach us.

it wasnt counted for me either and basically thats a lot of free periods i couldve had since it was probably going to be the one i wouldve dropped outta all my subjects

i also had about 4-5 different teachers throughout prelim/hsc and only half the course was in the trial hsc for me

NB. in yr 11 + yr2 we also only had around 10 days of actual practical work doing actual VB programming (which was essentially typing practice)

if u do what u like, make sure what u like rewards u in the end. if it doesnt reward u, youll end up hating it for that.

youll end up hating sdd.

sorry, i should speak for myself..

So really, what's happened is that the all the smart people stopped taking SDD, everyone still perceived it as a high-scaling subject and now everyone under the moon is taking it?

this is bad.

It was never a high scaling subject. There are a lot of smart people that do it, dragged down a LOT by the slime-ball-volleyballers and the (chronic: not Sunny) 2-Unit Email-Checkers.
