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.

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: Lawless America: Examples Of Desperation.

Some gangs in Philly, and Detroit released a couple of press releases after some kid got shot saying it wasn't them, and they would never do something like that. I was laughing, how the fuck are they going to release a press release, then have a spokesperson talk public all in front of city hall without him getting arrested? It was pretty cool.

Well, unless they had solid evidence they couldn't arrest them. The act itself of being in a gang is not illegal. It's like, how you can say you did drugs, but you won't get arrested for it.

People say the problem with me is I have psychotic tendencies and care not about other human beings I don't like and or know. So?

RE: Lawless America: Examples Of Desperation.

Many locations of The america of america are easily changing into lawless hellholes.In some of the locations that have been the complicated hit by the reducing marketplace, police causes are being seriously cut coming back and nervous fraudsters are being given a lot of freedom to walk.
