Introduction

'Ello everyone, how are you today? Recently i have been seeing alot of blogs about the mundane topic of bullying (Mainly cyberbullying) and how people are giving advice as to say "Oh it's bad" and "How we should stop it" however i think as a victim myself i should put in some of my own personal imput and how i managed to deal with my issues, because i'm clearly not making this blog for attention.

Now then as a victim i would like to explain first of all that bullying can destroy a person - i would know myself however some people deal with the issue in different ways however most ways can be similar to what others do. First of all let us cover some of the main examples on how people are effected by bullying.

Isolation - Offen at times people who are a victim of bullying break links to friends or even family, and thus they put themselves in a bubble and exclude themselves from activities that others are doing around them.

Anxiety - When people are bullied they develop some form of anxiety, they worry very very much about the things they do and how it is viewd by other people around them because he/she thinks that if he/she does something it may bring attention and thus result in bullying.

Depression - Now this one can be ranged from bad to worse, the victim offen feels down, not bothered and unmotivated to do anything, sometimes they may show no emotion and became monotone voiced. - In my case this has happened.

Now you might be asking yourself, oh these are about bullying, not cyberbullying. Well i have a few words for you that can help with the issue of cyberbullying now i myself have not been cyberbullied so my opinion might be a little bias but, yea.

If you're on a MC server and someone is bullying you what you can do to save yourself is simply this; If the server has /ignore why don't you use it

If you're on FB/Twitter and someone is saying mean, naughty words about you simply block them.

I mean really, people get sad about people saying stuff to them over the internet when you can just block them - however if you know the person in real life then ok fair enough that IS a real issue. I recently watched a video about someone  who is being harrased online for his race and the colour of his skin. He simply said these words.

"If i'm being harrased online by some random guy and if he turned out to be some little teenager why do i cry online when i know if i met him in real life i could just deck him. But if it was some fully grown muscle bound man who can break my face, then it makes me cry of laughter because of the fact he's a fully grown man picking on people on the internet, i'd say i got the last laugh"

I mean i'm not trying to say that cyberbullying is a very stupid topic to talk about but if the guy who's bullying you can explit you buy, oh i don't know give images of you naked to other people then to be fair it's partly your fault for giving him/her the images in the first place. My opinion on the topic of cyberbullying is that if it's something that could really, REALLY hurt you - mentally of physically then yes it's an issue to fix, if that happens tell the police or something (However that may be an issue considering he/she may have social anxiety and may find it hard to speak to people) but if it's something silly like "Haha ur stupid >:)" then really it's nothing to cry over. Maybe if the person was once a good friend who randomly turned into a dick and exploits you then that's a real issue. I learnt the hard way that people are dicks in this world. 

I'm not trying to parody everyone giving advice to people about cuberbullying but i wish that people wouldn't bring personal matters on a site ment for Minecraft things - if people can help you or not there are other sites for this issue, sure some people can help but most people wont care.

Iv'e applied a diamond to this just to hopefulley see the blog active and noticed! I think that this is a huge topic and although some thing have been covered there is still allot more to discuss about this topic "Cyber Bullying". What is it? How does it affect us? How does it affect you? and what is the main cause for it?

Just a few other topic lines that could go into more detail over all a good start to raise more awareness of this serious form of bullying. Who knows, you could be the next victim. Take note people, this is serious!
