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.

I love the amazing atheist and his show called drunken peasants. its hilarious they react to a crazy christian who says video games are caused by satan. and that Porn causes ADHD!
The Amazing Atheist is an idiot who overreacts to getting banned from fast food restaurants (which is always his fault,) makes creepy sex tapes, and E-Begs (most likely so he can get banned from more fast food restaurants) And his politics? He's just another dumb atheist that thinks Christians care that he doesn't believe in Jesus. The only good thing about him is that he's pro-GamerGate. /rant

For anyone who remembers me going on an archive binge: Thank you all. I know I ended it being a drama queen, I don't really agree with the ideology anymore, and I'm really not the same person I was (I went through a neopagan phase!) but still this site was the first online community I was in. I graduated from school and turned 18. Time flies. KFC Nyan Cat, June 20, 2019.

Not necessarily creepy if they are for someone he is going with and they happen to request it and whatnot...

Yes, he does do politics...it's one of the main things about his channel...

Yeah lets just ignore all the times people have addressed him in videos about his thoughts, along with refuting them...kinda like Thunderf00t...no?

Dude, those fast food restaurant videos are a joke. If they were actual stories, he'd be in jail.
But, I'm not a big fan of him anymore. He's a lot like Marilyn Manson; He's a very well spoken guy, but you have to get through a sea of edgy bullshit in other to see that. I completely understand why the guy has a lot of hatred flung his way, and it's because he purposefully pushes buttons.

I didn't know those videos were jokes; I thought they were real life experiences, just exaggerated

Yeah, inserting bananas into your rectum and pouring cooking oil on yourself, and VIDEOTAPING IT isn't creepy. If those were requests by girlfriends, then the girlfriends are creepy. On top of the fact if someone requests that shit and then you comply, you are a fucking idiot unless you actually thought it would be pleasurable.

Actually, no. This is more like scamming: he tried to get money for something he could do for FREE. I would say it's great that he didn't get all of the funds, but..... it's a Flexible Funding campaign.

Yeah but the way he talks is like he's acting like all Christians care about what he has to say when really only a few care, and even those are just far-right lunatics who think the Bible is meant to be taken literally and follow Bill O' Riley closer than they do the Bible.

He does the edgy-ness mainly due to the fact that that's how people expect him to be, it's a bit of a character and a bit of one that is not.

They also weren't meant to be seen by the general public last I checked...
ALSO who knows people find 'weird' shit pleasurable...who are we to dictate what is creepy/weird when we probably do things others find objectionable or creepy?

Lets see his original goal wasn't possible to do for free...so lets see:
Server Renting: Depending on what you want to do, what you need, and how much you want/need to do...either $20-$100+ a month...
Website Building: Actually building a good website, can vary from being able to do it yourself(which would take a year or two to actually learn everything you MIGHT need) which would be free, or paying someone/a team who actually knows wtf they are doing can be a bit of money...
The site probably wasn't able to get enough push either so it now ends up redirecting to a YouTube channel.

Then here's a tip: Don't watch him. He's also doing it for entertainment(and somewhat information, but more so entertainment and probably money...) so he's going to address his viewers or the people he feels need to be addressed. Also yes he does refute and talk about other videos however other YouTubers do the same thing too...
Also keep in mind that he generalizes a lot, and guess what is on the media and in politics? Oh well look it's the most the group that you just mentioned...

There's a difference between fetishes, and being a celebrity/lolcow (he's a bit of both) making a sex tape, and not wanting it to be leaked.

I derped here. I read it but didn't understand exactly what it was. I thought it was supposed to be a YouTube channel in the first place.
Watch on YouTube
He made two videos to advertise the same thing. On top of that, the only reason I don't have TJ begging for a new camera, his road trip idea (which he denied,) or FreeSpeechVids (that one while it actually had a site up had rumors of misappropriated funds surrounding it) is because he's good at clearing evidence.

And? I can make a sex-tape for my SO, presuming I have one, and give it to them and I would have a belief that it wouldn't be leaked and was for the enjoyment of my SO.

Either he's REALLY good at clearing evidence, or it never existed. It's hard to believe that there is no record of anything of that sort in this day and age, considering that there are things like the way-back fucking machine. So again until proof is shown, and not just hear-say, I'll still say that he's not.
Edit: also in those videos, he mentions partnering with other places, in doing so usually you are bound to a contract. Thus he may have been contractually obligated to do so...
Edit 2: Clarification on my previous point I meant contractually obligated to make those videos.
Edit 3: Spelling

Found a text commentary of him begging for a camera,
