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.

SS Steam Group

http://steamcommunity.com/groups/school-survival

edit: ATTN NEWFAFS

If you want to join, go to the group page (provided above, in case you're blind), and you should see me as "Admin" of the group. Send me a friend request, and post in this thread saying that you've done so, so I know it's you. I'll then send you an invite to the group. I'm pretty tired of searching and getting no results for obscure usernames, so just do what I said above and everything will be wonderful.

edit 2: Lol, that made me sound like an asshole.

Why would you make it invite-only? That's not fun.

1: Because we get a lot of persistent trolls.
2: PM Ellis, get invite, have fun.

When I get some good nets I'll sign up to Steam and join. Should be gettin' that soon. And I will be amazed at load times.

The pedophile, he speaks words of wisdom.

Also Eidolon, going by the "none face" avatar, I'm assuming this "Kyle" person who's trying to friend me is you? Either way, you've been added (assuming it's you, of course).

XplodingNoggin, you've been added as well.

It's called Left 4 Dead for a reason. I learned that the hard way.
