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.

Some friends say they will always be there for you, but as I was there for a Nolo who was fighting with Alcohol (codename for an ex-friend) Once they became friends thats who she hangs out with all the time, leaving me out in the cold, damn Drugs and Alcohol (codenames) they were truly meant to be.........

I don't want to hear about it please. So stop I'm done with this. I dont care what you people think anymore, I thought I could be friends with everyone here to stop being bullied from the outside world but looks like there are people here who just want to pick on others.

By that you mean zagix?
Congratulations humanity,because you refuse to let go of the old and evolve you actually make people believe in 2012. Not only that, but you're the only species on Earth that were able to make it possible, now we get to sit until we die because we couldn't get to Mars. We have failed as a society and don't deserve our gifts to survive for this long. Maybe this is why dinosaurs are extinct, we sure aren't any better than the dirt you say we're created from. http://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=pla...DvwSOFto#!

RE: Ex- Firends
CookieCutter96, stop being a drama queen. Nobody is bullying you, bullying is beating you up, punching you in the face, stuffing you int he trash, ect. I dont see anybody doing that to you. Dumb drama queen.

Yup, there is actually such a thing as emotional abuse. Also, this is relevant:
http://forums.school-survival.net/showth...hp?tid=107
Cookie, yeah, some people here are pretty picky about proper grammar. I know it doesn't really prove anything about intelligence (neither do grades), but proper grammar and stuff basically just shows that you care enough about your post to proofread it a bit before posting.
Meh, ignore anyone who bugs you (there's even a feature for that).
