RIP School Survival Forums
August 2001 - June 2017
The School Survival Forums are permanently retired. If you need help with quitting school, unsupportive parents or anything else, there is a list of resources on the Help Page.
If you want to write about your experiences in school, you can write on our blog.
To everyone who joined these forums at some point, and got discouraged by the negativity and left after a while (or even got literally scared off): I'm sorry.
I wasn't good enough at encouraging people to be kinder, and removing people who refuse to be kind. Encouraging people is hard, and removing people creates conflict, and I hate conflict... so that's why I wasn't better at it.
I was a very, very sensitive teen. The atmosphere of this forum as it is now, if it had existed in 1996, would probably have upset me far more than it would have helped.
I can handle quite a lot of negativity and even abuse now, but that isn't the point. I want to help people. I want to help the people who need it the most, and I want to help people like the 1996 version of me.
I'm still figuring out the best way to do that, but as it is now, these forums are doing more harm than good, and I can't keep running them.
Thank you to the few people who have tried to understand my point of view so far. I really, really appreciate you guys. You are beautiful people.
Everyone else: If after everything I've said so far, you still don't understand my motivations, I think it's unlikely that you will. We're just too different. Maybe someday in the future it might make sense, but until then, there's no point in arguing about it. I don't have the time or the energy for arguing anymore. I will focus my time and energy on people who support me, and those who need help.
-SoulRiser

-the soldiers step out with the prisioner and they take him to another location while the politicians are escorted to my office-
Soldier:In a moment, you must meet with the king first, because it's formalities.
- I'm in my office again and I have the gun to my head again when the soldiers barge in, both Mr. Lennon and Mr. Adams sees the gun to my head before I quickly put it away.-
Mr. Adams, Mr. Lennon, I assume your flight was nice.

"Yes, is everything alright?"
The three leaders turn around to see an incredibly sweaty but otherwise calm Mr. Onarevyl. Behind him are a number of knocked-out guards.
Onarevyl: I've just non-lethally incapacitated 37 soldiers that were too dense to realize the gravity of the situation. *faces the king* Your Highness, there's more to this power struggle than just an armed rebellion. I beg of you to hear me out!

-is visibly distraught, and is rather upset, but I feign a smile and fix my hair as I stand up-
Yes, everything is alright, sorry for the mess, I wasn't expecting you so soon. It's nice to have you in my country.
-my face changes a little bit to show I'm upset for the second, and then hardens when I notice the agent.-
Alright, in a few minutes. I do want you put in custody however. I was told of you and I was going to meet with you.

RE: The Isle of Three
Wits? Who needs wits when you have vodka. -Mr. Lennon
Do you know what? This is a nightmare. Mr. Jim and Mr. McCartney are okay, there was no evil plot, there is no civil war, no terrorist plot, and Capitalistian is at peace. We don't have to kill anyone. We just have to wake up. And we have this time to drink until we do. -Mr. Adams
You're speaking crazy talk, Paulie. And I love it. Who's making the announcement at midnight, just in case? -Mr. Lennon
I think Mr. Higgens is cold hearted enough to deliver it without crying, so how about him?- Mr. Adams
Sure. I'm glad we didn't leave him to die now. -Mr. Lennon
Your Highness, it's all a dream! There's no morals in a dream! Come drink! -Mr. Adams

JIM WAS A FUCKING PSYCHOPATH , BECAUSE YOUR GOVERNMENT FAILED TO DO MAKE SURE HE SHOULD HAVE NEVER GONE INTO POLITICS! NOW YOU TWO, AND I HAVE TO CLEAN UP THE BLOODY MESS! SO IF YOUR GOING TO DRINK YOURSELVES TO DEATH, THEN SO BE IT, HOWEVER I'M GOING TO TAKE OVER YOUR COUNTRY IF YOU DON'T FUCKING STOP. NOW BOTH OF YOU ARE GOING TO GIVE THE MESSAGE TO RAISE THE HOPES OF YOUR LOYAL PEOPLE THAT AREN'T RIOTING!

RE: The Isle of Three
Oh, the king is a little grumpy. Do you know what will solve that? Whiskey!!! (Starts laughing.)-Mr. Adams
He's right.-Mr. Lennon
Yeah, pass the whiskey--Mr. Adams
No! No more whiskey. We need to get our act together. No co-leader should drink their pain away while their country burns. They're depending on us. And we've failed.- Mr. Lennon
Awwww, Look! Another grumpy pants! (Passes bottle.) Here's your comfort!-Mr. Adams
NO! (Smashes bottle) NO MORE COMFORT!-Mr. Lennon
... I'm gonna go to bed.-Mr. Adams
Me too. Sleep this goddamn alcohol off. I'm terribly sorry about this, your highness. I hope this doesn't hinder our alliance. -Mr. Lennon
*Mr. Higgens prepares to announce the Purge.

"free speech under the constitution only guarantees the government won't stop him saying it and does not guarantee his right to say things and have no consequences at all as a result. also i completely doubt that he is motivated solely by "i'm saying it because i can" and is probably motivated by a more shitheady motive like "i think it's funny to annoy people and Rustle Le Jimmies and is just hiding behind the first amendment to try to deflect any consequences or make you realize that being allowed to annoy people is a superior moral right. you can still disdain someone for doing things for dumbarse wankery purposes and you have evne more right to ban and insult them for it" ~Trar's friend about Potato.
