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.

Chanku's Spam-a-geddon Log

Please note that this is, while based on the spam attacks that have gone after the site, I have decided to do a sort of roleplay thingy and have some fun from this experience. This also makes references to Geography of SS, but is NOT cannon in that universe.

This is Chanku, a citizen of School-Survival. Today, we came under attack by spam-bots....they have infiltrated several sectors of the forum. We have no communication with Soul, as of this time. Until then we must brave out the attacks, and hope we surive

This is Chanku. The blog sector, my current residence, has been hit roughly one our ago at 1:00 AM CST. With Soul missing most of the citizens of the blog sector are dead, missing, injured, or have left the sector to un-hit areas. The attacks are calming down. Those that have stayed in the sector are cut-off from each-other.

Chanku's Spam-a-geddon Log

TIME: 12:28AM Pacific Standard Time JANUARY 1, 2014

I can see only the flames from what was once beautiful countryside all in the distance. The sky is pitch black yet the smell of smoke is distinct. There are more of these damn spambots in the sky. Everyone is looking for cover, for shelter. The leader SoulRiser has not been seen for some time, some fear the worst. Some are crossing the border to Dark N Edgy for refugee until Soul reacts and destroys the spambots. I can still only smell the smoke. Houses have been burned down. Brainiac has no witty responses left. Little hope is left.....

No information has been gained on survivors or Soul. There are reports of people fleeing into DnE for refugee. I have managed to make a make-shift radio from parts of other things marked Capitialistian Property. However I only faintly remember a country by that name that was destroyed long-ago.

Hey, thanks for joining me! Now if you want you can create your own log area for your own adventures! Also SubCulture, nice reference, also keep in mind that this will not affect Geography of SS(The Game itself)

RE: Chanku's Spam-a-geddon Log

(I hope I can join this, even though I'm not part of geography of SS)

NOW - whenever now actually is. The spam is interfering with all of my devices -- my watch reads 37:92 PM.

I look across the wasteland that my hometown has become. There is nothing left but rubble and scorch marks. It looks as if I'm the only survivor -- in any case, there's no time to look for others. There are still spambots patrolling. I need to get to safety.

Hello, traveler.

This is an ancient account I have not used in a long time. My views have changed much in the intervening months and years.

Nonetheless, I refuse to clean it up. Pretending that I've held my current views since the beginning of time is what we in the industry call a lie. Asking people to do so contributes to moralistic self-loathing. "See, those people have nothing damning! I do! I'm truly vile!"

Because you can never be a good person with a single blemish on the moral record, I thought that simply entertaining some thoughts made me irredeemable. Though I don't care for his writing style, William Faulkner presents a good counterexample. He went from being a typical Southern racist to supporting the civil rights movement. These days we'd yell at him for that, probably.

People are allowed to change their views.

Nevertheless, this period of my life has informed some of how I am today. In good ways and bad ways. To purge it would be to do a disservice to history. Perhaps it will not make anyone sympathetic, but it may help someone understand.

If, after reading all this, you still decide to use the post above as evidence that I am evil today, ask yourself if you have never disagreed with the moral code you now follow. In all likelihood you did, at some point. If some questions are verboten, and the answer is "how dare you ask that," don't expect your ideological opponents to ever change their minds.

Please use a Log format like the one I used, or used by others. Also this is independent and does not require you to play Geography of SS. Also make your own topic if you wish! Allows for a more depth adventure! Also looks like I started something new! Also I used this format to make my OOC/OOU posts more noticable.

This is Chanku. Looks like we have been spared, however they are attacking others, and they just attacked the Welcome Sector. Damn the relentlessness. However I'm so sleepy, but I must not sleep, they could kill me any minute.

OUT OF UNIVERSE
I'd assume that each different topic is an alternate universe in which the event occurred, and each time someone posts in the topic that person is part of that universe. Excluding the Mr. Jim event. (Because that deserves it's own section). As the Spambots were more like missiles and bombers in my head, but in Hansgrohe's mind they were more so bots. This way both exist in a way.

OOC: I'd like to think that all of these problems are occurring simultaneously because of a rare convergence of universes to form a problem-ridden multiverse. Perhaps the events SHOULD be related.
