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.

Re: Official Nation Game Topic
Official national anthem, uncompleted
"O deathumania
land that we hate
we have defied her, and maimed her
as the flak bombard the skies up above"
Above middleland, deathumania (soon to be renamed), is a land of everlasting night, having not seen daylight for decades, due to the overactive volcano in the region; though the residents believe it is dark magic, it is surrounded by a shroud of darkness. The land consists of dark forests, and ash mounds are plentiful throughout the region, locals and the military have found special uses for this ash, which they have found had unusual properties.

Innernet...a strange and bright place located in a not-so-secret place. Prime goods soon to include high-quality prostitutes, strippers and pornography.

Re: Official Nation Game Topic
Our anthem is silence, because we're just that awesome, and not to to laziness at all, no sir.
To the north is temperate and coniferous forest. To the south is desert, and to the east is prairie. The west coast is blocked off by mountain, making passage that way difficult.
My small population goes forth like niggers respectable African Americans and increase the population. Everyone else gets to work on building a border to our main Capital "Seon". We're abundant in sugar, as well as gold.
What time period are we in?
Also, I hear of Innernet, and wish to ally with said country.

Re: Official Nation Game Topic
deathumania continued (as i had to go eat)
However, there is light in the dark for deathumania, literally. The splendid city of Deinen lies among the diseased woods on the north western peninsula of the country, it has many lights and illuminates the night, the marble-lined roads and many other luxuries draw people from across the land, but beware if you stray from the main square and it's surrounding amenities, for the Dulled Ward in the eastern part of the city is infested with thieves and is a battle zone between government troops and gang lords' men-at-arms.
(I think i'll draw up some stuff on the map and outline the city )

Innernet sends forth their leader to agrees to ally with Halogenland, for reasons besides sounding like drugs and having an awesome leader of course. Cue shaking hands with you and then running off after stealing a couple young girls from your streets.
Innernet tends to be either raining, storming, or slightly sunny. Although the weather is quite gloomy the trees, flowers and buildings are very bright and tend to attract animals. Made up of mainly plains and forests, very few lakes in the middle.

This has been a test of the emergency pointless argument system. Had this been a real pointless argument, someone would have been called a facist.

Lots of fields, even more forests, very few lakes. Bright plant life and several small villages scattered around a much larger one located near the ocean. Possibly two mountains located next to each other symbolizing breasts.

We speak English, Amestrian, Xingese and Spanish in Innernet, we have no religions and no real government...or maybe it would be called a Dictatorship or something...
National Anthem: "Hail to thy fuhrer or face thee tentacle chair."
Flag: A large pair of rainbow breasts.
Innernet starts researching Pornographic Material.
Innernet starts researching Erotic Dancing.

Re: Official Nation Game Topic
All I ask to be put on the map is the location of Oceania's Capitol Airstrip One. If you could try to make the capitol marked by a star, If you can't thats fine but it would be greatly appreciated.

Next League of Extraordinary Nations meeting?
"I heard a joke once. Man goes to doctor says "I'm terribly depressed". Doctor says "I know just what you should do. Poliacci the clown is in town, go see him, you'll be cheered right up." The man bursts into tears. "But Doctor, I am Poliacci." Funny joke. Roll on snare drum. Everyone laugh."

Don't worry, deathumania has rather "slow" scientists, so although we can handle multiple technology researches at once, they go slower than normal, except for training and anything to do with ash or wood
