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.

FYI though that email's been compromised, so there's no point in trying to contact me through there.
Does this mean you're officially back?

As long as no one smothers me in my sleep, sure.

brainiac, you are under arrest for first-degree murder. You have the right to remain silent, anything you say can and will be used against you in a court of law. You have the right to an attorney. If you cannot afford one, one will be provided for you.

STAHP! You're doing it all wrong!

When you warn another user, you have to do exactly as I do: Give them a vague, unclear reason why what they did was wrong, go into detail as to what kind of punishment you are issuing them, and rant self-righteously about how you could have made things much worse for them.

Start again, from the top. ACTION!

Fine, fine, fine. *Takes deep breath*

brainiac, you will be issued a 10% warning. Be glad it's not 20%. You are receiving this warning due to threatening another forum user, and that is NOT allowed at all! I am anti-schooler's gift to School Survival so be happy that I am this merciful. I cannot promise you, however, that the next time I will be so lenient.

Better, DoA?

There's a local pizzeria/italian restaurant near my house. Went there for lunch last Sunday. Unbelievably delicious food. I had a chicken cutlet but sampled chicken parm, onion rings, garlic knots, fries and ravioli. I hope to go there sometime for dinner soon because the food was great. The pizza is also epic.

The owner is also a pretty cool guy. Real nice and all.

You have now been given a 20% warning for talking back to a moderator. Your next sanction will be an infraction, and you will have your posting privileges revoked for 24 hours.

[split] Brainy's Attempted Murder and "Moderator" Warning Extravaganza!

A voice in the background calls out, "Does anyone care that brainiac just tried to murder Dead in his sleep?"

His reply is a brick, thrown directly at his face, and a crowd chanting "BANNED" at him.
