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.

Re: I know not what I unleash

Sega is a half-assed company that couldn't handle going 3D

Nintendo served generations of gamers with good games and consoles.

Nintendo is now serving the gaming industry by keeping it afloat with casual games.

Anything that ever happened or will... one condition, it has to be amazing.

Re: I know not what I unleash

I've played several Nintendo systems. I have never touched a Sega.

Re: I know not what I unleash

Sega, this might be biased, but I grew up with it. Other than the Wii and DS, I've never played a Nintendo.

Nintendo. Especially the 64.

Also why is it called Nintendo 64?
Weird.

Re: I know not what I unleash

Only Zelda would have me into Nintendo, but it's outnumbered by Sega games. Especially Genesis and Dreamcast, as I still have the latter.

Problem, officer?

Re: I know not what I unleash

Yeah, and then they added 128-bit architecture for the next generation(PS2/DC). Don't ask me what for, probably for a fancy name. Only Xbox and GC had x86-like clocks from what I remember, and now it's x64 because it's more convenient porting to/from PCs.

I am incredibly disappoint with my Wii. Genesis and Dreamcast games are chock-full of win.

Re: I know not what I unleash

Well, Dreamcast is the only console I know that I can play on without having a memory card, or playing games that have 2 hours worth of a tutorial. You just sit, and enjoy. That's why I like arcade games more.

But yeah, not many good jRPGs on DC on the other hand.

Re: I know not what I unleash

My first console was a Gamecube. And Zelda is legendary.

Therefore, Nintendo.
