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.

I hate working in groups, as well. It's my most dreaded phrase in school. Teachers should just let you work independently.

^ In other words, it doesn't exist.

"No matter what I do, it'll probably forever remain a pipe dream that will never come true,
but the fire burning in my heart cannot be doused by anyone.
Even if the black rain falling from the sky drenches me completely and doesn't stop,
I will never allow the fire in my heart to be extinguished. That, is my 'pride'."

In case you can't detect sarcasm, I'll make it plain to you. We're being sarcastic. But we do seriously want to see your project...

Stephen, I sent you an email over this. It was a glorious surprise to see you back. Please, show us that project. You may just educate us! (And sate our curiosity, as well.)

I saw the post, Hans.

It's great to see that stephen's education is really paying for itself, even if I'm guessing it's provided (mostly) free of charge. Especially when you consider that USB by itself, Universal Serial Bus, describes the protocol for the bus interface system and not the USB-compatible flash drives themselves.

Stephen, educate us. Please show us that report ASAP, as we truly are genuinely curious.

Is it male or is female? is it 1 or is 2? is it liquid or is it solid? Is it real or is it a lie?

He did a misguided school project/report on School Survival in a misguided manner that flagrantly violated basic journalistic ethics. We're naturally curious as to the results.

Stephen is just some annoying troll wannabe who supposedly joined SS to do "research" for a project on "losers" because he had nothing better to do in life...I mean school. He said he'd show it to us but it's on a USB that's impossible to find now.

Personally I've just put him on my ignore list for being too predictable and thus boring.
