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.

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.

The Ron L Hubbard Thread

A thread in which we invent our own religeons of increasing stupidity and crappiness.

I'll start:

IKEAntology is the religeon in which you worship our lord Ingvar Kamprad by purchasing items from IKEA. On the 30th of Febuary 2042 you must line up items purchased from IKEA in alphabetical order
(IE, Alexander the Coffee Table on the left and Zachary the desk on the right at the end) and wait until 9:33PM, where a bright beam of light will take all the items up into the sky and transport you to HEAVEN. All the IKEAnologists will be there (except those who have sinned by not buying £500,000 worth of furniture) and peace and happiness can ensue and the bushes and trees can roam free in the fields and etc...

I dare you to make up an even stupider religeon.

Re: The Ron L Hubbard Thread

Penguinism, where we all live in igloos, everyone eats snow-sicles, and our god is the mighty penguin in the sky. We also all live in the Antartic. Anybody who defies these customs is frozen alive.

We came here from the mighty penguin in the sky on his magical egg rocket and preform daily four hour worshipings consisting only of " All hail mighty penguin. "

Our currency is the snowball, and people join by throwing 16 snowballs at one certain igloo at a certain point of the day during any Friday.

Our religion's one hope is that one day the mighty penguin will return cleanse the entire world to the teachings of Penguinism.
