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 Isle of Three

Hello there, I am Chandler, the monarch of The Isle of Three, which is a small group of islands roughly 30,000 miles off of the coast of Americium. Our colors are Red, Black, and Blue. Our Anthem is Let Us Slay. Our Main language is Latin, with English a close second. Our national Bird is the Phoenix. Our Currency is the Tonitra Ignis (TIΩ). We have a good sized army, and we have some of the top scientists in the world. Our Economy is Capitalism, and we have a great economy.

The Isle of Three

-Televisions across the Isle are interrupted for as I appear on the Television, about to give a speech-
Hello, as you may have known the leaders for Captitalistian were both killed yesterday at the League of Nations meeting. Our friend and Ally, Mr.McCarthy was murdered by his opposer for giving us weapons and revealing a few secrets. Mr. Jim then spread misinformation and lies within the country to try and rise to power, however a country intervened and released the conversation in Capitalistian, leading to Riots and Mr. Jim's death. Following this, we have now offered any aid that they may need during this tumultuous time in their country. However, we are going to be prepping our military to be on the defense in case of an attack from the Radical Control party members. However, we will not be launching out military yet, I am also weary of an attack from Blimpataria, as the leader seems a little unstable and insane. This is Chanku, over and out.
-the Televisions return to their scheduled programs as I get my military in ready position as I get the weapons given by Capitalistian-

RE: The Isle of Three

We wish to inform you that some citizens took it upon themselves to declare war. They are at sea as we speak.

20 boats, each with about 5 men. As far as we know, they have no armor, only basic shotguns and pistols, and are using basic fishermen boats. They are not a threat.

When they arrive, do as you wish with them. They have no country to return to.

Again, we have no intention of attacking the Isle of Three. We just have a few rednecks who say otherwise. -Mr. Adams

I'll take them if they arrive in handcuffs and with black bags on their heads. I want to make it painfully obvious that that the government does not condone their actions. It'll also serve as a message for anyone else with any ideas. -Mr. Adams

The Isle of Three

-The Televisions across the nation flicker over to an Image of the podium and the traditional, black background. I then walk into view and look at the Camera, I begin to speak-
Citizens of The Isle of Three, Today the government of Capitalistian informed us that a few of their citizens have taken it upon themselves to wage war on us. Having signed an extradition policy with them, we are in talks of their punishments for their actions. If they give them the death sentence we will not extradite them, but instead punish them for crimes against The Isle of Three, and hold them until the talks are over. Also the League of Nations meeting has begun again, and with riots getting out of hand, it seems that Capitalistian is heading towards something that will change the course of it's history forever.

Also thanks, to action taken during the previous league of nations meeting, we have "Saved the Fabric of Society." Had the action that I took, not had been taken then we might now, be plunged in war, and fighting a disease that they created. However the nation of Capitalistian has now selected two new leaders, Mr. Adams and Mr. Lennon. We both wish them luck in running Capitalistian and restoring peace to their country due to riots. We shall reveal the documents given to us by the Capitalistian Congress detailing Mr. Jim's plans had we not stepped in.

With the second League of Nations meeting now underway, we shall try and maintain peace throughout the world.

RE: The Isle of Three

-televisions across The Isle of Three flicker over to me standing up about to give a speech looking distruaght- Citizens of the Isle, as you might have heard Capitalisitian entered a civil War several hours ago. This marks the first war in this world. We have decided to give our support to the government, and the Control Party. We have decided to send troops to Capitalistian to help restore order. We also officially offer sanctuary to the Capitalistian Government, and anyone seeking refuge due to the fighting. Our Soldiers will not fire, unless fired upon. Once order is restored, we will work activly with the Captalistian government to rebuild the country. As of now, we are deploying our troops and getting them ready to enter Captilistian.
-televisions across the Isle of Three return to normal, as I return to my desk and take a tylonal, and sigh. I wonder who would ever want to be king. My troops then board the planes and leave for the main Capitalistian Continent.-

(OOC: Any conflict between my soldiers and anyone in Captialsitan WILL OCCUR IN THAT THREAD. (Bolded so no one would miss that))

-I return on television for the second time today as I seem rather distraught-
Citizens, I have been informed that today three soldiers dies on Capitalistian Soil, as the first shots were fired. In other news the politicians from Capitalistian are going to be coming to The Isle until order is restored. Also I remain our position on no violence unless needed. Over and out
-The televisions return to their programming as I walk back into my office, and it's dimly lit, I walk over to my desk and take another Tylonal, as I put my head in my hands and I begin to wonder where did this all go wrong? Why would I ever want to be king? I pull open a drawer as I pull out a gun, and look at it. It's already loaded. However I put it back up and I lock the drawer. Sighing I sit back, wondering if my life will ever improve-
