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.

PC Modders Hate School.
Here's a bit about school On Xoxide.com...
School...the bane of your very existence! No good has ever come from this...until now! Because without school, Xoxide would not be able to bring you the Official Xoxide Back to School Sale!!! Gee-Golly-Jiminy-Crickets Batman!
Oh yes! The Xoxide Back to School Sale! The best thing ever to coincide with the worst time of the year ever! When else could we bring you such deals on items such as the Sonic Boom Backpack...in your face hall monitors! Or Caffeinated Soap to help invigorate your faltering stressed-out mind back to reality! Xoxide truly has all you need to kick off this school year righteously...cases, power supplies, headphones, networking cables, keyboards, mouse pads, beverage chillers and holders, even a cigarette lighter!
The summer maybe almost over, and the time for federal mandated brainwashing is at hand...but gosh darn it why not let us help you go in with a bang and hook you up with some sweet deals with the Official Xoxide Back to School Sale!
