It has come to my attention that there is more cyber-Harassment going on daily in this community, a few very young users where even driven to Self Delete because of how much cyber-harassment this forum allows, I find this behavior absolutely unacceptable and it's time to take a stand and say NO to bullying.
WHAT IS BULLYING?Now you might be wonder what exactly what is bullying, well the textbook definition of bullying is:
Bullying is the use of force or coercion to abuse or intimidate others. The behavior can be habitual and involve an imbalance of social or physical power. It can include verbal harassment or threat, physical assault or coercion and may be directed repeatedly towards particular victims, perhaps on grounds of race, religion, gender, loveuality, or ability. If bullying is done by a group, it is called mobbing. The victim of bullying is sometimes referred to as a "target".
An example of that definition might look a little something like this:
Say we have three people, John, Mason, Maxx, John and Mason are best friends and they like to tell eachother secrets, well one day Mason told John that he is actually a closet homoloveual, Mason told john NOT to tell anyone in fear of being picked on, John told Maxx and Maxx started to pick on him, calling him mean names like "Cream Jockey", "Fudge Packer", "Clay Digger", "friend" and "Queer", Maxx also told all of his friends, soon enough everyone in the school started picking on Mason, it made mason feel really sad, one day Mason decided he had enough and brought a gun to school, he shot everyone he saw and saved the last bullet for himself.
HOW CAN I HELP?As you can see bullying can have a pretty negative affect on someone if it's not STOPPED, which is why, you as a community, must come together and help put an end to harassment once and for all, you can start by getting into the habit of reporting mean users, defending those who are getting bullied, and encouraging the use of kind and caring words throughout the community.
REFERAL LINKSThese are a few links to wonderful websites created by anti-bully activists like myself, they provided information on how YOU can put a STOP to this hatred and inspirational stories of people who have overcome bullying.
