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.

Hello, welcome to SS. Before you start making posts you're going to have to heil me because I'm Kaiba. (I'll heil you though if you know the show I'm referencing and no, it's not Yu-Gi-Oh)

BURN DOWN YOUR SCHOOL BECAUSE VIOLENCE IS ALWAYS THE ANWSER!
Congratulations humanity,because you refuse to let go of the old and evolve you actually make people believe in 2012. Not only that, but you're the only species on Earth that were able to make it possible, now we get to sit until we die because we couldn't get to Mars. We have failed as a society and don't deserve our gifts to survive for this long. Maybe this is why dinosaurs are extinct, we sure aren't any better than the dirt you say we're created from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pla...DvwSOFto#!

Purple Pliers (this is a reference to the show "Dark Oracle" and I recommend it for something to watch...although it aired a while back so you'll have to watch it on Netflix now, or DL it like other people have before...it deals with 2 sophomores in a secondary skool near Montreal if that helps you decide any)

BAHAHAHAHAHAH jeez havent laughed that hard in a while.
I still consider myself a newfag. Come back when you have at LEAST 1000 posts and have been here for more then a few months.
Wtf is this "smart people from old SS" crap. They're more or less gone, and "old SS" is back when only smart people roamed the forums until the comet "August site shutdown" killed them all.

I'm around lmao. I've read your replies and its actually quite humorous. School violence is never an answer. Also, I've discovered if there's a problem you can actually talk to authorities in your school about it.
