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: Greentext school-related wins

We weren't allowed to bring flash drives to my school, they said someone might try to give the computers a virus.

I had mine confiscated until the end of the day one time.

I love opening up command prompt, changing the text to green, putting it in fullscreen and just typing in random info commands that make it look like your doing something. The teacher will shit a brick when he walks by Laugh

Lmao. Some kids at my school do similar things and they think they're cool because they think they are hacking. Damn script-kiddies.

Re: Greentext school-related wins

Well I'm no hacker. I use command prompt occasionally if I don't want to arse myself with looking through the start menu to find a program or for keeping track of my specs.
I just fuck with it to make the teacher freak.

Re: Greentext school-related wins

I need to use the command prompt more. I never bothered learning how to use it, though.

That actually did.

My English teacher said, in her own words, that she "has the sense of humor of a 17-year-old boy."

Aside from my math/programming teacher, she's my favorite teacher ever.

Re: Greentext school-related wins

My english teacher on the other hand, said there is no reference to Satan in the bible.

I am full of disbelief.

Anything that ever happened or will... one condition, it has to be amazing.

I gave her wings but she don't wanna fly no more.

I'm sittin' on the dock of the bay

Ooo, I'm just sittin' on the dock of the bay

Yeah, I don't really have a clue on to why she's a teacher.
