ill tell you what a fad is. Justin Beiber is a Fad!
you need to realise what this is doing to some people before you start saying what you think it is.

The only "serious harm" that comes from cyber bullying is when people with weak constitutions allow it to offend them. Kids need to realize that nearly all internet tough guys are just insecure about their own lives and looking for a target, and that nothing they say is even worth dwelling on or crying about.

And for your information, I've been bullied in real life and "bullied" online - and getting upset about the online kind is a joke.

So if i say something to my friend Brett like, "Hey dude you gonna play Black Ops With me tonite" They will pick on me and say, "So Your going to pway Bwack Ops with Bwett tonite?" and pick on me about it.


Lol , Say Russians saved everyone from mass German invasion in WW2 , If it wasn't for the Russians , We wouldn't be here today.

I mean there were Millions of Russians waiting for the Germans to invade Russia ... What happened Russia won.

Therefore Russia is awesome and Russians have awesome accents btw.

What you do is , Don't let the bullies know it's hurting you ...(Ignore it) That way they get no fun out of it.

I agree, online bullying isnt as serious as real life bullying, because on the internet it doesnt really matter, and you and can just shake it off. While in real life, its hard to ignore a guy who punches you, or pushes you, or even gets in a fight with you. Its so much harder to ignore and play along when the bully is actually up in you face. Thats why i just shake off online bullying, cause lts not something to get worked up over and suicide over. Now up in your face bullying can be really disheartening. It can really make you suicidal from the daily beatings. RL bullying is a great threat, and shouldnt be used to make yourself "cool"

Russians are so cool, and althougb i bought MW2 i thought it would be like the first one, but i sucked, cause they made russians look mean and evil! I now hate activision, and am going toward BF3 which isnt so primitive to use inapropriate scenes like in MW2.

RUSSIANS IN WWII AND EVERYWHERE FTW!!!

Just don't let it hurt you ...

If there's death threats involved contact the local police.

How much of a background do you really want?

Srsly.

Been bullied IRL? check
Been bullied online? check
Been bullied in the workplace? check
Been bullied in marriage? check

Not even going to bother telling you how bad it got. Let me tell you how I dealt with/deal with it.

in real life? I finally beat the living hell out of the guy. He went to the principal. I blinked innocently and said "who, me?" (I was the school golden girl.) Afterwards I smiled at the guy and said "oh, and if you ever do it to anyone ever again, I beat the hell out of you again."

Online? Psychologically, this one is worse. People who are already fragile can be pushed over the edge by this. Fortunately, I take a pill for that now.

Bullied in the workplace? I walk out in the middle of the business hours and made life miserable for the jerk.

Bullied in marriage? I left him.

How I'm teaching my kids? Bullies don't understand psychology. Bullies don't understand talking. Bullies understand pain. When you DO hit them, make them remember, for a very long time.

I've been e-bullied/flamed for standing up for someone. |D Express concern for the person and suddenly a bunch of idiots are hounding you, not even trying to explain their point - just mindless flaming. This was most notable on Neopets, though. Even worse, most of the victims on there are just little kids who have no idea about the internet and trolls, and take every word seriously. And most of the bullies themselves are ridiculous pimply college students who think they're tough. One of the flamers/bullies I met was, apparently, studying to be a psychologist. I swear I've never been so disappointed in the human race until I went on Neopets. ._. It wasn't always like that either. The hell happened to those people.

Little note - just because you don't take the internet seriously doesn't make it an excuse to hurt someone. Watch what you type.

As for real life, I've never been bullied myself. I'm too... average, I suppose. I don't stand out enough for people to take any notice of me. But then again, maybe if I went out more I'd be surprised, lolo. I don't know. But I'm confident in myself. If someone has some sort of malicious intent against me, I know exactly how to handle them. *cracks fingers* And I'll always stick up for someone who's been bullied. I despise such people. If you've ever been bullied, stay strong. Even though it may not seem like it in the face of their bitterness, these experiences will make you so much stronger. They turn your sadness into joy, and you turn their hatred into success. You will always end up far better than them.

Background: I was bullied in primary school and secondary school, and it was always by 1 or 2 individuals. They would constantly take the mickey out of me or shove me to the ground and all i could do was ignore them as best i could until one day they went too far and broke something of mine that meant something to me. Now some of you might think i'm gonna say that i beat the living hell out of them but no, i did not as that would then be going to their level and becoming a bully myself. What i did was to go to the headmaster/principals office and report what had happened, to which the headmaster called their parents and the police and the bullies were expelled from the school as many people had complained about them before.

My opinion: Bullies will never work alone as they are too cowardly to do so, if you walk past a bully who isnt around his friends then they shall ignore you but if they are with their friends then suddenly your most wanted #1! Bullies are nothing more than mere cowards who try to build a reputation amongst their friends as a "tough kid."

My advice to those being bullied is to report the bullies to your teacher or principal whenever the bullying occurs and just ignore the bullies, if they see they are not getting any reaction from you then they will move on to another person and leave you alone and most likely ignore you as if you where a ghost.

And as for people bullying over the internet, they are the most cowardly people as they havent even got the guts to say these things to your face, just ignore these nincampoops and carry on with your lives as they haven't got any life if they think thats fun :x
