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.

Itd be fun to see them ICBMs move through the atmospehre before awesomly striking a target and creating a beautiful masterpiece of smoke and flames, seen from the leisurely comfort of space(on the moon).

I would be lounging around in my beach lounger with a space pineapple in one hand, and a slutty astronaut lady in the other. Then, as the ICBM gets close to its target, I would put my sunglasses on and take a sip of my space pineapple.

Good thing Iraq doesn't have a space program that could keep me alive on the moon long enough to watch this happen. Also, not if I'm an American astronaut.

Actually same type of radio. Perhaps I simply have my tuned to a private frequency specifically intended to broadcast the finale of the 1812 overture for all those chaos lovers.

Secondary plot twist: Due to an engineer that knew what he was doing, there is a handle to install to crank it, but there is no picture and the instructions do not show you where to put the hole either.

Gamma plot twist: This device you speak of is actually just a figment of your imagination because there was a tiny radiation leak in your suit which made you go crazy. Because of this, you were left alone to die on the moon while the other astronauts went home to their wives and boyfriends. (That's right, one of them was a female)

I'm Zeus. And if you do not choose to specify which religion you are "god" of, then I will assume you are the Christian God. If this is true, then that means you are a weak little bitch and I'm going to fry your ass with my lightning bolt.
P.S. The lightning bolt is my hammer.
