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.

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.

Re: Ohai.
Welcome to SS. The room to leave your sanity in is at the far end of the hallway on the right. On the right, the one on the left is actually, well, I'm probably not the best person to tell you what's behind it. Odds are that'd be Moriko, after all, she did create it.

Yeah, the door on the left is the staircase to the basement.

Fix'd to show that I am a bit less of an asshole than everyone thinks. But not much less.

Re: Ohai.
Mod ABUSE? Dude, if this were any other forum, we probably would have banned your ass from the welcome section by now. Maybe even the entire forum.
From now on, I'm straight deleting any other asshole post you make in a welcome thread or a bumped thread. Because I'm getting REALLY fucking sick of it.
Remember when we used to actually get new members? Raikuron doesn't, because IT STARTED THE SECOND HE BECAME A MEMBER. If he said some of the shit he said to ME when I joined, I can tell you right now, I wouldn't be here. We really haven't gotten a single new member that stuck around since Raikuron got here.

You know what, the little crayon is right, we've not gotten a single new person other than Fagix to stick around since Rai joined because he harasses every single person here.

Woe, I didn't even notice that until now. O_O
Do what you have to do.
Although, we could just warn the new members about him like we did with fagix and other trolls who fucked with nubs.

Re: Ohai.
Heh, I feel speshul, I noticed something.
I mean, sure, we scare off some people on our own, but we at least got a steady flow of members stick around for at least a few months. Now, the first thing they see of the forum is "UR NAME SUX LOLOLOLOL" Or "QUIT FUCKING BUMPING THREADS GAHH! QAHFdnfjkdlsnfskdln" or "YOU MISSED A COMMA! BURN THE WITCH!"
It's not technically their fault they bump threads, this is a smaller forum. Most new people here are used to the first page automatically being recent. They don't check the dates, because they never really had to before. But now, Raikuron goes FUCKING APESHIT when someone bumps a thread over a few days old.
@ Absent:
But the thing is, even then, they'll think "Jesus, I have to get warned the second I make a thread?" And at this point, I'm done being nice.

Well, with Fagix is is random, that's okay, because it just ends up getting auto pruned anyway. But other posts, yeah.

Yeah, I'm going to name the new members that I honestly enjoyed since they arrived:
IllusoryDeath (I miss her, dammit)
You
Loxor (Where is he? I need someone to discuss webcomics with!)
And probably a few other people that I don't quite remember. (It's early, dammit)
Wait... Absent is newer than I am, right?

Well, I meant with Raikuron. Maybe some of TDF's honest-to-hell shitposts, too. Other than that, I'll probably leave the rest to more experienced SS guardsmen.
