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.

I miss seeing some peoples names showing up yellow instead of red orange.

Re: Can we bring back the yellow text on mods?
I have no idea why you would want that....and I'm torn.
On one hand I think my name should come up in Dark Orchid....on the other, I don't want members to obsess over becoming moderators just to have their name be colorful.

Re: Can we bring back the yellow text on mods?
Wouldn't that further separate mods and members? Make everyone want to become a mod? Make people hate the mods more? And shit like that?

Re: Can we bring back the yellow text on mods?
I love it when flamboyance defy's logic....I think to be perfectly fair to everyone, I should be given exclusive privileges to be multi-colored.

Re: Can we bring back the yellow text on mods?
When I made people colourful, everyone kinda raged. So I ceased and desisted and made everyone look the same. Not going down that road again...

What if you allow everyone to choose whatever color they want for their usernames?

Seconded. How can everyone have the same thing, and it be fair? Only vatman can be fair.

Re: Can we bring back the yellow text on mods?
I think it's should all be up to Soulriser. She should grant color to whoever amuses her the most. In whatever way.

In that case you should all be pink and fluffy!
