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.

Re: America Won the War on Terror!

The world's #1 terrorist is the embodiments of the same concepts that are in Manifest Destiny. That it is our job to spread our ideals to backwards people and dominate the world. Bush may be leaving, but the CIA is not. Neither are super patriotic politicians, or citizens, or the military.

The world still has to deal with the American Ego.

Obama is a centrist who can lead a stable 8 years. My guess is that the GOP will fade into insignificance as a fringe right party of the south within 50 years, and that the Democratic party can then split between the moderates and the leftists. This is an important point for history - Obama is not the ultimate solution but he's the first drop to start the coming storm.

Re: America Won the War on Terror!

Like what was said before, Obama won't magically heal all the wounds of the world, and if you believe so you are crazy or extremely optimistic. But he is a good start in moving the US forward.

There were 10 million new voters this year, and I'm guessing that they are all Black. Way to skew.

Now that Bush is out, we just have to wait for Obama to start fixing the fucking mess he left behind. I hope he does.

Quite true. Nothing can be fixed instantly, and Obama has recently said that it won't be a overnight thing.
