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: Sorry
Yeah. That things awesome isn't? I found it when I was on that mission to arefu. It's like our radiation levels from the war were so damn bad, another life form picked up on it and decided to investigate.
I think one of the things that made me lol the hardest was when I was in dc and you first meet the brotherhood of steel.
When you come out of the metro there is one of those personal protection things and when you open it there is just a human skeleton on the floor and a sticker that says "stay until radiation disappears enjoy your stay" just the irony with it. And the misguide thought that he would live in that price of shit

Re: Sorry
How far am I... um... well, I'm not doing the main quest atm. Just doing side quests and random exploring. I'm level 7 though, for whatever that's worth 
And I have a pet dawg. He likes to maul things.

Re: Sorry
Fallout is cool, but I got to lvl 16 before I got bored with it. Have you been in the capitol building yet? Super mutant behemoth in there but he's in a huge room and can't get to you if you stay in the hallway so he's an easy kill.
DO NOT get the here and now perk to lvl up fast. It's a waste of a good perk, and always get the ones that increase accuracy in V.A.T.S. Those are useful as hell.

Re: Sorry
Fallout 3 sounds like it's easy to beat then there's no point in playing it anymore ... like fable.
Fallout 1 and 2 were classics that you could play forever.
