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.

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'm not a noob for using a certain weapon

What's the deal with people who play Halo? I was playing with some friends with system link, and I used the sword to kill someone only to have heard "Awwww little noob can't play without a sword."(to prove him wrong I blew his ass away with a battle rifle) This kind fo shit really pisses me off. How the fuck am I a noob for using the sword? I like using the sword. It's fun to use. And most people I have seen are hypocrites about it. They use it all the time but when they are on the recieving end they get pissed and call you a noob.

When someone gets killed enough by a certain weapon, it is called the noob weapon. People kill me with sniper rifles all the time so I now decree that the sniper rifle is a noob weapon, and if you use it you are a noob.

People tell me it's no fun to die by the sword, but I say it's no fun to get killed by someone you can't see from miles away. At least you can sometimes see the swordsman unless he comes from behind. The sniper rifle is more noobish(is that a word?) than the sword. Alot easier to kill from a long distance,but with the sword's charge time when it is pulled out, it's a lot harder to kill with that so don't tell me the sword is for pussies when you just sit back with your sniper and kill people when they can't even see you.

I do use te sniper rifle somtimes but I don't just sit back and kill everyone with it from far away. I switch to it when I see a good oppurtunity to use it. I dom't just camp somewhere where noone can find me and shoot anyone who comes into view. That is definitely more noobish than getting close to someone with the sword.

Anyone who thinks that the sword is a noob weapon is just a little bitch who can't accept a loss. I know what I said about sniping, but I was using it as a comparison. Getting sniped is annoying, but I just accept it and get revenge on the sniper. I don't sit there and bitch and call the sniper a noob. I usually kill him with the sword just to annoy him.

It takes skill to accept a loss but it takes no skill to call your killer a noob based on his weapon of choice. I'm gonna use the sword all I want to, and if you don't like it, well that's just too bad for you. You being a pussy and bitching about it won't make me put away the sword. I will still use it. In fact just to piss you off more, I will kill you again with it.

I highly suggest Mobb Deep's albums The Infamous and Hell on Earth, if you have not listened to it yet.

On Counter Strike people do that as well, but most people do listen to it. Unlike Halo, when you die in CS you have to wait until one of the team wins, or your entire time is killed off. This can take a while. It kind of sucks when you get sniped (Killed in one shot) or shot with an auto snipe right from the beginning, it makes it boring.

I don't really care what weapon people use. True, I'm not a fan of the sword, but I'm not going to start calling people who use it a noob.

I normally don't care what people use, but it pisses me off if someone that's really good at whatever game is playing with people that aren't as good and get the best weapon and camp, etc.

I actually dislike using the sword all together. I prefer to stick things and rep my mad skillz

Whilst some work diligently there are those who ask why. I am one of them

Halo I don't care about, but in AVP2 it pisses me off when a server is like 80% aliens...if any of you have played this game, you know how annoying this is.
