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.

-SoulRiser

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.

The Isle of Three

Kaiba please leave my nation. -I get up and walk over to Mr. Adams and Mr. Lennon and I tell them Mr. Higgens started it 17 minutes early, I then get up and walk over to the war room, in which the agent is waiting- Sorry for taking so long, they lost their wits. -I walk over to a console and enter in something and a 3d hologram of the world appears in front of us-

Without warning, Onarevyl suddenly stands up and begins typing an insane amount into the console. Red dots appear on the borders and interiors of the world's countries to denote areas with a high concentration of vehicles for air, land, or sea travel.

Onarevyl: Did you read the news report from Capitalistian? The rebellion's tactics are more heinous than we feared.

Yes, I just heard of it. Also I think we have to worry about Mr. Higgens. He started the Purge 17 minutes early. However I can make my military mobile again rather quickly. -sits down and writes something down-

Onarevyl: The Purge was an...ambitious plan pioneered by the Emperor of my nation. I knew he would suggest something like that, and I also knew that it would draw a violent response from the same organization that hijacked those planes. I couldn't stop it, but I do have a plan now that this has come to pass.

In fact, could you invite the two leaders from Capitalistian in? This plan involves them. (Also, I recommend cooking them some bacon sandwiches; I suspect they will be majorly hung over.)

Onarevyl: Excellent. Allow me to more formally introduce myself.

I am Public Investigator D. D. Onarevyl, commanding officer of the Sealandic Head of Intelligence and Technology, which is a secret organization that was once part of the Agency of Sealandic Spies. I am known only by my last name in order to protect my identity. For the past three weeks I have journeyed the world over, investigating threats from FASH and arriving on the scene too late to stop the carnage, each time. From this I have learned much of their organization.

FASH is funded by the Sealandic mob, a group of wealthy criminals that haven't been arrested because they are actually rich enough to pay the nation's taxes. They're ALSO paying terrorists to endanger the world's aircraft, and this venture has been so lucrative that there have actually been long lines to join the accursed terrorist organization. Only a few people have been accepted, including an individual that I've been tracking for awhile.

This is where I require your aid.

(OOC: Laughing to myself about the acronyms)

Onarevyl *pulling up a bio on the computer*: Meet Terrell J. Winters, an Amerigoan who immigrated to Capitalistian right after Sea Land invaded his homeland. He's rather bigoted, zealously preaching his admittedly odd religious beliefs in the hopes of rallying the terrorists against the "unholy regime" of Capitalistian's new government. FASH took notice and actually went to great lengths to recruit him.

Tomorrow, Mr. Winters is scheduled to meet FASH in their secret base. It is our mission to take Winters out and find the address they sent him...oh, and one more thing - Winters is almost a dead ringer for Mr. Lennon.

*pulls up a picture of Winters* (Aside from the way his hair is parted and the outlandish clothes he wears, he looks like he could be Lennon's long-lost twin.)

Onarevyl: Mr. Lennon, if you are found out, you will be killed and we may never again have an opportunity like this; however, if our plan works, we can not only end the terror but also the entire civil war. What do you say?

The Isle of Three

I am still in the war room, as I type a few commands into the console, and the dots disappear as three dots appear on the hologram, so I can see where they are, I type in a few more commands and I get a look at Capitalistian and I put on a headset, I type in a command and the General in Capitalistian can now hear me.- General a helicopter is heading your way, do not shoot it down. Also send small squads into the cities and take anyone with a bomb, then go in and sweep the city, your mission right now is to try and re-establish order. Take any prisoners and disarm them if needed. There are also radicialists whom are armed with explosives, be careful. Use small teams. -after a few moments, I hear the general's voice- "I read you loud and clear Sir, getting troops ready, most of them are ready to come home." -I sigh and reply- I know, we must not let the deaths of our soldiers be in vain. Our mission is to restore peace, not to wage war. Remember do not shoot down a helicopter that is coming your way. Again we must do this, for world peace. -I hear him getting something- "Alright sir, we are getting ready now." -I then reply- This has no longer become a peace mission, it's quickly becoming war. I'm just glad the other nations are out of this. -I then enter in a command and I see my troop's positions.-

-sighing I monitor as my troops try and have mixed results, in re-securing towns, most of them have been captured as I get the distress signal, as I ignore it, while I'm supposed to look at it, I ignore it only because I'm trying to restore order, with the cities captured, mainly on the coast closest to The Isle, I happen to capture a city, but quickly loose it. I then contact the general again- General, has the coast been secured?
"Yes, we have them under our control." -I smile- Alright they are now territory of The Isle until Capitalistian is restore. Make sure you keep people from leaving or entering the territory, reinforcements will be on the way, our next place is the capital, once we have that, we can start getting Capitalistian back to peace. -I smile as I take off the headset and I get ready to make an announcement, the televisions flick over to me getting ready to make an announcement, I look at the screen-
Attention Citizens, the Capitalistian Government has come to our fine area, and are being kept in an undisclosed location. We have soldiers in the area, and have sucessfully taken the coast near the Island of three, and they are now Isle Territories, until the Capitalistian government is back in place. While we have lost a lot of lives, we have saved even more. The League of Nations is also not going to meet until the War is Capitalistian is over, due to the fact that we don't want any of the world leaders to get harmed. Over and out -the TV's return to their scheduled programs, as I return to the War Room and put back on the headset-
