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.

GoSS Act Two - Signups

Over the course of what I would like to call the prologue and Act One, a civil war broke out in Capitalistian while a tyrannical dictator took over half the civilized world. Heroes rose and fell as the world fell into its First World War, ultimately resulting in the fall of Sea Land...and the rest of the north, for that matter.

And after six months, the world has recovered and rebuilt.

Behold: Act Two!

[Image: Wfb4ncs.png]

Now we must choose our nations and decide together what has happened in the aftermath of the war to end all wars.

Red: Demiosa - brainiac3397/crazyguy562/DoA
Orange: Skyvana - The Liberal
Green: Fantasia - Hansgrohe
Light Blue: United States of America - Chanku
Dark Blue: Capitalistian - SubCulture
Purple: Isle of Three - Chanku/DoA
Pink: The League of Nations

If you want to switch nations with someone or suggest things that happened in the six months between the end of the war and the beginning of Act Two, now is the time and here is the place to do so.

(Also World Super Powers would most likely form, of which would be most likely, The Isle, Capitalistian, and maybe Revivistan and or The USA.)

RE: GoSS Act Two - Signups

Orkania will now be known as Demiosa.

It will be feudalistic in nature, and as such Id be glad to allow others interested in participating to be vassals to the monarch of Demiosa. You'll be like governor of a state(termed Duchy, as vassals will be Dukes...or Baron. Take your pick) with general freedom to adminstrate on behalf in the monarch.

I'm making a new thread for Demiosa. I'll leave 2 vassal spots open. Will also split the land into specific duchies(with names).

Anyone interested can check it out when I make it. You get to have your own noble aristocratic family! Smile

Crazyguy will most likely be a vassal. One spot of the two has been given to him.

RE: GoSS Act Two - Signups

First order of business will most likely be Demiosa's request for the return of the island once known as blimptaria, which was originally Orkanian territory that was later given governship to another leader under a treaty that stated it was still Orkanian land.

While the Orkanian government no longer exists, the people of the nation of Demiosa consider it as Demiosan territory. Currently it's part of the USA. Demiosa will also most likely claim the territories of Skyvana, or at least the vassalage of the government, as it was conquered land before the demonic nightmare that scoured the land.

We can say the last 6 months Demiosa was founded and has been making a case for the above two claims, continually but diplomatically insisting on obtaining these territories or at least obtaining vassalage.

Nations locked! Next arc will start pretty soon; we just need to do some collaboration here.

Chanku, playing the US, will likely dispute Demiosa's claim by citing that Japan...er, Blimpataria was run into the ground economically due to the former deal they had with Orkania, and are doing much much better under the US. And Skyvana, assuming the nation is active, would be pissed at any insinuation that they don't deserve sovereignty.

RE: GoSS Act Two - Signups

Basically, your average politics at play.

At least this time war wont be the first option(but WW2 did start within 2 decades and a bit, after WW1 Biggrin). Im guessing the league of nations will get quite active as we argue our claims.

To a degree; the world is just discovering what it all means, so we'll probably see some religions and magic powers popping up just a bit.

The thing to keep in mind, though, is that gods only influence the world. Mortals are the brave ones who act and lead nations, and this story we're writing is about them.

Anyway, I'm about ready to formally introduce Act Two, so, participants, please use this thread to describe what is happening in your nation six months after the end of the War. If it is a new nation, how was it formed?

I'd accommodate you, but there's no room, no late admissions...and most importantly, no Nazis. GoSS has already seen someone close to Hitler, anyway.

Um my aristocratic house developed a bit.
After a law was passed saying that supernaturals can't control school a position called "Educator Director". they still have a feudal nature.

the Educator Directer passed an act called the F- act.
The F- act is an act where all children with bad grades have an F- tattooed on their head in red and forced to work as slaves for free, They have to wear brown rags. They still have to go to school. When school ends and the kids still have bad grades they get killed but if there grades are high enough they get to live. F-'s are below regular human citizens.

Supernaturals, females, animals, and kids have less rights than male, adult humans.

The Isle rebuilt and has been living peacefully.

In the USA it has lost land, and elections have been held, the Wanderer one and was elected unanimously, meanwhile the wanderer ramps up the military for unknown reasons.

On the league island, the citadel is still being rebuilt with better technology and data is still being transferred as such the conference room has cords and wires powering everything and sending data and stuff, laptops can be seen open with random characters on it as the technology is optimized too.
