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.

Call to Action! (again) ((UPDATE: No one gives two shits))
We are formally raiding (Again) drawball.com.
So far, me, thunder, cory and fist have done a few scribbling, but we need some help.
Hit up http://www.drawball.com/kd4sf4 and work on either erasing existing crap, or writing down SS's url, or making quotes, or whatever.
Tips:
---------
Don't use the biggest brush.
If you're out of ink, try disconnecting, than reconnecting your router.
Focus on either erasing or writing, not both.
Kill off vandalism.
The Current Situation: [size=1]CODE RED
Total vandalism takeover, erase everything.

Re: Call to Action! (again)
And it's not like they'll give too shits about us anyways.
But nontheless, we need at least a few people to be designated erasers to make room for our stuff, and other people to actually write/draw stuff.
If we could get the SS logo up that'd pwn.
Also, when making letters, use straight lines only.

Re: Call to Action! (again)
I wrote down "a closed mind is bolted from the inside".
I also altered this picture of a head to be sucking cock for the lulz.
Edit: why only straight lines?

Re: Call to Action! (again)
I have spammed about how Weswammy Rocks, but then I felt guilty.
Because there is absolutely no reason to spam an art community. All it is is causing grief to people who want to make a beautiful piece of collaborative artwork.
EDIT: Maybe we could collaborate to make the School-Survival Mascot Skull thingey. It wouldn't be spamming, but it would get the word out.
I think I'm a genius.

Re: Call to Action! (again)
It's an art site? I thought it was a massive graffiti ball that everyone spams over. I haven't actually visited it though... my internets are too crappeh.
If it's really an art site, I don't support spamming them.

Basically it's a huge ball that you color on.
I've looked at the memorable ones and they are cool. People collaborate to make these huge pictures. We could make the SS Skull, it would be awesome.
