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.

The forums are mostly read-only and are in a maintenance/testing phase, before being permanently archived. Please use this time to get the contact details of people you'd like to keep in touch with. My contact details are here.
Please do not make a mirror copy of the forums in their current state - things will still change, and some people have requested to be able to edit or delete some of their personal info.
Because I was bored, and named one of my Saves School-Survivia, I felt like doing this. Also slightly because of CrazyGuy's thread. Maps
Regular Maps
Hidden stuff:
Landmark Maps
Hidden stuff:
District Maps
Hidden stuff:
History
Hidden stuff:
So here are some important events so far:
-Town was founded
-District 1 founded
-Town Expands with new districts
-Construction begins on First Nuclear and The Electricity District is re-named First Electric and a new district is created called First Nuclear
-Original Power Plant, SS Coal shuts down, and First Nuclear begins operation,
-SS Coal is torn down, and First Electric is removed from the map, causing First Nuclear is renamed Nuclear/Energy District
- The first monster attack occurs and damages the First Industrial District, rebuilds occur and it is renamed the Brainiac Industrial and Commercial District.
-The SoulRiser Stadium is built and the Stadium District is formed
-Second Monster Attack Occurs on the Braniac Industrial and Commercial District, SoulRiser Stadium is damaged slightly, however repairs are quick and the Stadium is fixed.
-District 5 is formed
-Third Monster attack Occurs and the Braniac Industrial and Commercial District is highly damaged, along with the Stadium Disitrict and a small part of District 5
-District 5 is renamed District 7, however due to the attack and loss of residents, repairs to the districts will be several years
-District 7 is completely repaired along with the Brainiac Industrial and Commercial District.
-Plans begin for rebuilding SoulRiser Stadium, however the plans are quickly scrapped and the plans for the second stadium begins, it is given no name.
-Stadium District is re-named the Memorial District, and plans begin for the SoulRiser stadium Memorial Park
-The 2nd Stadium is completed and the Northern District, aka District 2, is renamed the Stadium District
Pretty Much my only signature...I'm mainly a lurker....you can find me on the IRC (or on DnE and their IRC).
WTF is this blashpemy? Why isn't there a massive state of me anywhere?
I had to build a statue of myself in 3k using the ground because a one-square statue was too small. Needless to say it was more a monument than a proper representation of a humanoid.
By the way, what does my district say? I can't make it out.
I think it's Commercial and Industrial abbreviated?(Brainiac C & I)
I love SimCity. Thank you for this. I played 2000 when I was a kid and now I have all 5 main games before 2013. (Fuck EA.) I really should play it more, but this will suffice. Extra points for SimCity Classic.
That's a rather big cluster of roads in the middle, though. The road system is finicky in the first three games! If you inaugurate a mass transit system, do it in my name and with my blessing. AFAIK you can replace part of or even all of the roads with mass transit; it's easier in SC Classic because the train tracks function just like the roads. Expensive, but worth it if you don't feel sentimental for roads/realistically-minded.

SC3KU was great. I consider SC4D the pinnacle of the series(SC2K & SCK3KU come close), but it's only really great with mods, and even with the mods you NEED it's unstable and not as fast as it can be, and that's on modern computers. It's a labor of love at times. I really should play it again, but it's a timesink...
