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.

Someone killed the shoutbox

As you can all see, the shoutbox is disabled. This can only be done through the shoutbox administration... which is protected by a password. All the mods & admins have the password... but someone changed the password. I can't get in there to fix it.

So... would whoever did this please PM me the new password, or change it back?

Thank you for your time, and have a nice day. Stabhead

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

Now that is even more surprising then the fact it was murdered.

And, no, it wasn't me.

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

He's in a coma until I get the password back... assuming I do, in fact, ever get the password back.

If I don't, I'll have to get a new shoutbox. Shrug

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

Now that I think about it, this means that someone is abusing there administrator or moderator access. I say take away everyone's powers until someone coughs it up. Or maybe it was Jusitn who saved it when he raided and had access to view it. Could he still be interested in this place? Fuck. Maybe someone's account got hacked now and none of us realize it? Check the admin and mod logs for anything suspicious. I'm gonna go change my password to something more complex.

I changed the password after that.

Quote:Maybe someone's account got hacked now and none of us realize it?
If someone hacked someone's account, I think they'd do worse things than just mess with the shoutbox. Unless they're just playing with us...

lulz.

Quote:Just destroy it, it's dumb, and it's only wasting bandwidth.
Technically, it doesn't use any bandwidth on this server. Razz
But maybe (if I get it back), I'll do that thing with a link to the shoutbox instead of having it directly on the forums.

I like the shoutbox. I impersonate people sometimes.
I can safely say it was not me.

Soul: Can you just delete the shoutbox and reinstall it? Perhaps the password was bruteforced.

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

That's not how it works. It runs on a serve called shoutmix. If Soul were to cut the HTML code out, and ten paste it in later, it would still have all the settings from her shoutmix account.

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

And still nobody is giving me no passwords.

How 'bout this... If you own up now, I won't even publicly announce it was you, I'll just say whoever did it changed it back and all is well again. Wait longer, however... and YOU WILL FEEL MY WRATH OF FROZEN COOKIES! (Or something equally scary).

Re: Someone killed the shoutbox

Ok. I bruteforced the shoutbox password. I then gave the password to a friend of mine, who changed it and won't give me the pass. ;(

1.41167096 × 10^22 is the total number of combinations for the shoutbox password. Average time to find it is half that.
