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 sorry... what?

Wikipedia Wrote:The Weekenders rarely touches upon the aspects of school life. Furthermore, because it is the weekend, the characters are not supposed to be in school, and thus they are allowed to partake in activities that are not school-related (such as playing arcade games) without a logical error. This was often a problem for such shows as Teen Titans, which failed to address why the teenage characters weren't in school or being supervised by adults

Why would they NEED to? They're more than capable of handling themselves, and they have a superheroing career no matter what they do.

Sorry kids, I know you're saving the world and all, but you need to get your ass to school. Godzilla will be here when you get back.

Re: I'm sorry... what?

xD

Robin was such an emo bitch at times though. xD

Remember the episode where the guy made them go to this fucked up school and strapped them to the chairs? Dude reminded me of fucked up Mad Hatter.

He was probably based on them. Too many similarities to not be at least somewhat purposeful.

That episode had a ridiculously large amount of British stereotypes in it, as well.

EVERYTHING MAKES PERFECT SENSE NOW! xD

Terra pissed me off so badly, mainly because I saw BBxRaven being in the top pairings in cartoons ever. Motherfucker threw a wrench in EVERYTHING.

Re: I'm sorry... what?

I know right? Stupid motherfucker.

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=h9aHsN9J ... re=related
OH SHIT, 1:20... Raven is RIKRON. Laugh

Also, watching this, it further accentuates my HAET for Terra. She fucking winks and Beast Boy is all OMFG. Raven's prettier, IMO. Also, not a bitch. Okay, yeah, she's a bitch, but she's a LULZY bitch.

"Nevermore" (the one with Raven's different personalities) was so win.

Re: I'm sorry... what?

The comics illustrated Terra's conflict more, and she wasn't so anorexic. So... Canonically speaking, I prefer Terra, but going on the cartoon she's a bitch.

Re: I'm sorry... what?

I would read them... but, I have a problem with a shitton of muscle on people. So I generally steer away from the traditional comic style. Is it good? (I still think I'd prefer Raven, my current image of her is too low. Fucking bitch)

Re: I'm sorry... what?

Interesting. I'll read it one day.
Oh, and don't you love when you get lead to news on complete accident?
Quote:On December 3, 2010, it was announced that The CW has ordered a live-action television series script focusing on the Raven character. Describing her as "a half-demon also known as Rachel Roth," the pilot script will be written by Diego Gutierrez, who will also be executive producer.
This was yesterday (two days, technically, it just turned the 5th an hour and a half ago.)

It might not take off, many other comic character centric shows didn't, but I have reason to believe this one will. Just because CW is teen/Young-Adult, which is the age group that's probably most nostalgic towards Teen Titans.

Though, like I said, there were a lot of similar ideas that just never made it, it's way too early to tell. However, if this happens, I will fangirl for a straight hour.

Carla Franklin may be a whore. She may be a wonderful, kind, moral woman. Seeing as I don't know her personally, I cannot know for sure. However, I find her actions (suing Google, requesting the personal info of her critics, getting angry over random internet idiocy that she should ignore and be bigger than, trying to get this site in trouble because of a few users' commentary on the situation, etc.) pretty ridiculous and unwarranted. If she didn't want people to to be talking about/judging her, well 1. that's impossible, she's a human, and 2. she shouldn't have been a model or agreed to be on film. AND 3. she DEFINITELY shouldn't have sued Google and made all this fuss over a few random idiots whom she probably won't ever know expressing their opinion. Mmkay? MMKAY.
