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.

Re: Burn

Holy fuck BUMP. How the hell do you people find these things? This story was a failed experiment in doing a serial and I have no intention of continuing it.
I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.

Re: Burn

Ok, look. At the moment I am writing two books, a short story, a school paper, and a manifesto. And next semester I am taking 5 classes that all include a shitload of writing assignments. I do not have time to tie up loose ends in forum stories that I most people don't even remember.

Re: Burn

Fine with me, if it means waiting a year, but... People will remember this story, as it's as good as OTE, but if you think no-one will remember it, I will.
It just stinks that school interfreres with people's lives. It makes me sick to see the greatest writer in the world being overflowed with too many assignments. Teachers should lay off the demanding. After all, you were my inspiration for The Great Escape.

Shit. Well, if you can't do it, fine, but if you ever have time, please do.

Re: Burn

No can do. I'm letting this one die. But I'm about halfway through a short story that I'll probably post sometime within the next week, if it makes you happy.

Re: Burn

I don't mind at all, seeing another story by you.
Even if it means two, three, or ten years, (Or summer vacation if I'm lucky).
Those stupid teachers have no right to take time out of our precious lives.
