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.

RE: New Guy
I think you should know:
it is okay to swear as much as you like. Nobody will guve a shit
School sucks, everybody agrees. If you are a pro school troll, we will troll you back.
PLEASE dont bitch about not getting $900 computers from your parents like Voluble did (on thread "why do parents do this") or I will troll you like mad. A legit complaint for example would be a bitch teacher, bitch parents, too much homework, school sucking, ect.
Have fun! This forum supports free speech, most things are okay.

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#!

Remember, posting porno counts as spam. If you want to post porno then post the Diablo 2 secret cow level. IT'S A REAL LEVEL LOOK IT UP!

Well, most of us here hate school. That's about all you need to know...just watch out for trolls.

We always scare them away like two peas in a pod, that's our specialty of keeping away potential spammers. We're such good people.

...These "potential spammers" are also people that are tired of the oppression of school and seek to survive. You know, sort of like how you two were when you came.

How did you go from "Aser miller the second" to "Zvesda"?
