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.

Smart Phones
Am I the only one who thinks these "Smart Phones" suck dick? They have that stupid touch screen, they are confusing to navigate, they have a billion different useless features. What the fuck happened to flip phones? I can't even find a decent flip phone for sale anymore. they are all cheaply made or look retarded. Meanwhile I'm stuck with this stupid slider phone.
FUCK YOU 3G!
I WANT MY FUCKING RAZOR BACK!!!!

Re: Smart Phones
lol, I can't believe I'm saying this but I kinda like the iphone software layout, I think if other phones stopped trying to be unique for the sake of it and took what's good from iphone then they could kill the iphone.

Re: Smart Phones
Do you guys remember when phones were actually phones and not weapons of mass destruction/spy cameras/teleportation devices/etc? Those were the days.

Re: Smart Phones
I got a Nokia E72 the other day. Does that make me smart now?

The sad thing is, coming from many people this wouldn't be sarcasm.

I do, though only very briefly.

Smart phones have computing technologies beyond that of your basic phone.
