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.

I side with CH in saying that not all Asians are bad drivers. Not even the Chinese. That's mostly in Action movies when there's chases.

THANK YOU!

And it's not even about "siding". I'm right, it's true. You can't make an assumption about a large population when you haven't seen them all drive.

And dogman32, what in the fuck is your fucking problem? DUDE, its not about HUMOR. Nobody here is trying to be funny. So shut the fuck up. I hate people like you. OkthanksbyeIloveyou.

Re: My "Brothas", My "Sistas"...How Have You Fallen?

It's not possible to know if all Asians are bad drivers, but it would be possible to know if Asians tend to be bad drivers. When people say Asians are bad drivers, they generally mean the latter. (I think that Pimp was just kidding/trolling, though.)

Do you not think there isn't, even a bit, of humor intended when he says all Asians are bad drivers?

Like I said, grow a sense of humor. Or you could get a transplant from me, mine's overgrown.

No, it's kind of hard to tell over the internet, as we all know.

And no thanks, mine's just the right size. Smile

I usually am when I state my political, philosphical, and religious beliefs.

Otherwise I'm pretty sarcastic. I'm also spontaneous. More so on the intertubes.

I guess that's because I post on the not-so-funny threads more often than not.
But trust me, I love being funny. Smile

I wasn't talking to you.
These are the droids I'm looking for.
Hand them over, or things'll get rough.

You can't mind trick a God, or a Devil. I'm too strong minded.

You will hand me the droids.
You will move along.

I hope you're not in any state of confusion over why people don't RP with you.

Because I'll win regardless?

Chavs at my school listen to terrible music.
Soulja Boi's songs are essientially one phrase repeated over and over for enough time to make
a rap.

I actually used to like that song (I've got hearing loss, so I don't listen to lyrics much anyway), but now I only tolerate the rock version and parodies, my favorite being the screamo version.
