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.

It's mah birthday

...and I'm 20. HOW THE FUCK AM I 20. This is going to be so weird. You know, I'll just go start a campaign for youth curfews and video game censorship to take my mind off things. Later.

I think Buenaventura Durruti is a pretty cool guy. eh kills fascists and doesnt afraid of ruins.

Well, this does mean only one more year before I can legally purchase a handgun from a Federally licensed dealer. And since I'll probably be living off-campus in a legit apartment next year, well... Scratchchin

Re: It's mah birthday

Ok so, I'll just go over what I got.

-Modern Warfare 2 (pc version) SHUT UP HATERS, IT'S AN EPIC GAME AND THERE ARE BATTLES THAT TAKE PLACE IN SPOTS I USED TO VISIT AS A KID WHEN I LIVED IN DC SO THAT WAS COOL.

-Book of antifascist propaganda posters from the Spanish Civil War

-Drawing of horses getting attacked by a dragon, drawn by my sister

-Candy

-Brownies (homemade by a friend, very delicious)

-Battlestar Galactica t-shirt ("I Went to Caprica City and All I Got Was This Frakkin' T-Shirt")

-Money, which I used to buy a Nerf gun (modded for increased power) and a real fucking night vision monocular.


So, all in all, it ranks pretty high on the good-birthday-ometer. Thank you all for your posts, I luv u guiz
