I have noticed some people have seemed to cross the line while trolling. Sometime's, people just go a bit too far. Note : This is not directed towards a feud that occurred several days ago including some forumers. Trolling is similar to cyber bullying, if you think about it. Trolling : - If you could "troll" in real life, it would be best compared to Sarcasm, that's what I believe. - Trolling can consist of : Smart Remarks Sarcasm Small insults A mix between insulting and joking Cyber Bullying Cyber bullying can be serious, unlike trolling. Cyber Bullying can consist of: Personal Attacks Deep Insults Threats Extreme Name Calling. By name calling, I don't mean "Noob", I mean those words you were taught in kindergarten not to say. Cyber Bullying can lead to death, and suicide, especially dealing with the age groups playing this game. Here, nobody knows your personal problems, and you get to display yourself as a better version of yourself. Sometimes, people's online personality is what keeps people staying strong. If you destroy that barrier, you practically ruin their online life. Their real personal life may also be destroyed, by being bullied for their wieght, looks, speech, and much more. We have all been bullied, and several of us have been effected by suicide from bullying. My personal experience on this game has shown me some of the strongest people I've know. People who have to raise a baby alone in their teens, people who are forced to cut theirself due to their personal life. And if they were to be bullied on a game would make them feel twice as worse. Think twice before you hit that Send, or enter button, it may save, or end a life.
If you can't take it delete this app. This is not real life where you cannot choose to end the bullying. Here, you can choose to go away, and not face the bullying.
Great forum Cal . There is a difference. And people do have feelings. And if I ever cyber-bullied anyone here, I do sincerely apologize.
While I do agree wholeheartedly with the message this post sends, I wish you would have phrased the part about people who cut themselves differently. No one is forced to cut him/herself because of his/her personal life. No one held the razor to their skin. That is just the coping mechanism they chose. And it is absolutely horrible that someone would choose such an unhealthy coping mechanism. If you are the victim of a bully, ask for help. Please don't resort to any type of self harm. Talk to someone.
I only see trolling as sarcasm and joking around in the net...i dont really see ppl taking a troll that serious that acturally be much offended. Cyber bullying is different in my opinion. Where they have a specific target
