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.

And for the most dangerous awards....
*Drum roll*
Well, it comes down to me, Zero, FoN, 0bliiVi0N, and Soul. If there's no vote, then there's gonna have to be-
Toucanman (sounding like that guy who yells MORTAL KOMBAT!): FATAL FIVE WAY KOMBAT!!!!
Spambot Kill Counter: 33
Spambot Kill Counter as Spambot Hell's Devil: Countless
Buying a high powered computer: 500 bucks
Getting gift wrap: 10 bucks maybe
Seeing the horror on that special someone's face once they tear off the gift wrap and see a Windows 98: Priceless.

Well, we couldn't have a Fatal Five Way Kombat thing because a couple of us are immortal.

Well, when it's down to me and you, there's gonna be a MK-esque fight. We fight on top of a platform, and at the bottom, razor sharp spikes. The one who's knocked off loses, and the winner gets the trophy, wait a minute, you, me, FoN, and Soul...we're all gods! Zero's gonna die! Oh well. Let's just hope that people vote then.

Same here. This should be the "respected members don't get shit for awards while the majority of newbs get all the awards thread."
"If the doors of perception were cleansed everything would appear to man as it is, infinite. For man has closed himself up, till he sees through narrow chinks of his cavern."

According to me, we're still pending, and we've only given out a meager amount compared to the amount we ARE going to give.
