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.

Battlestar Galactica

So... who's looking forward to next Friday's premier?

They've got some kickass web episodes here, if you haven't seen them.

I love this show so much. /geek

Sorry. Took me a little bit to locate this. Here's a link to "The Story So Far."

http://www.scifi.com/battlestar/storysof...index.html

They're also doing some new material. Look for a link that says, "The Resistance Webisode" or something like that.

I, myself, am much more of a Firefly fan.

Maybe if I were to stop mourning it's early cancellation...I could get into Battlestar Galactica. It definitely looks interesting, loads better than my previous obsession with Stargate. (Although earlier episodes of Stargate were alright, it's the new ones that are embarassing.)

Let's do the time warp again!

SG has some seriously bad acting, too, especially SG Atlantis.

hell yeah i'm looking forward to it! i've been looking forward to it since the end of season two!
although, i think stargate atlantis is a hell of a lot better than SG-1. that show makes me ashamed to be a nerd.

but whatever, FREE NEW CAPRICA!!!! KNOCK DOWN THE CYLON OPPRESSORS!!!! GALACTICA FTW!!!!!

I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.

Stick a fork in the toasters!

Umm... okay... maybe on second thought that's not a good idea. Electrocution sucks. Laugh

IDK... looks a little small for fighting centurions. Maybe one of these would be better:

Well, on second thought, that one's a bit high tech for Galactica. I'll be they could manage one of these, though:

but remember that one episode where the centurions boarded galactica and tried to release the oxygen? they used exploding pistol rounds, and the toasters would go down with one hit.
