How do you get bullied online by someone you've never met? I find the concept hard to believe. If someone bullies you online, you bully back. Two can play that game. Or, play the ignore game. If someone I don't know tries to bully me online, they'd be talking to themselves.

'Cyber bullying'.....Eh, I don't mind. It's minimal the amount of bullying you can do on an anonymous message board where it takes a minute to write anything you feel like. And if you feel yourself getting hurt, you need to grow a thicker skin as somone has said. Some try to be rude like IRL but live and let live, at least it keeps things fresh around here and trolls get called out more quickly, yet somehow they still keep getting topics with so many pages *cough*orbs. So yeah what's up with that. OT needs to both call out trolls and then stop responding once the deed has been done, or said. That way we will have less trolls overall.

Calling someone out on the bullshit they spew is not bullying. People need to learn the difference.

There is too much bullying in Gamespot.

What is the purpose of this forum if the users here don't know how to treat each other with respect?

pariah3

if someone says something god-awfully stupid then i'm calling them out on it and/or ridiculing them for it and/or using it as the base for a joke at their expense.

how else will they learn?

when i say something god-awfully stupid and you have a point to make on how dumb i am i welcome it.

I guess but it is the Internet. Some people act like asses because they can. If the mods can't do anything you might as well just ignore them. I am pretty sure they will stop bugging you because you aren't saying anything to them. People do not have to respond to those kind of comments.

True. I don't see any bullying go on here TBH.....I see people that are butt hurt over differences of opinions....or people that like to insult others but can't take it when it happens back.

I'm not seeing bullying. I see a lot of sarcasm and dickery but not bullying. Honestly if you ARE getting upset at some of the stuff on here you could stand to get some thicker skin because this is incredibly tame stuff. Worst it typically gets here is people calling others idiots over opinions and usually those calls aren't entirely without merit. But everyone has an idiotic opinion every now and then so big deal. Lai gets probably the closest there is to bullying but that would be in large part because he treats others poorly quite consistently.

I don't see bullying. I would just like discussions to remain civil. Even if somebody has (in your opinion) an idiotic opinion, there is no reason to call that person an idiot. The furthest one should go is to say that his/her particular opinion is stupid, then go on to explain why you think so. But directly calling a poster an idiot, stupid, or whatever 4 letter words you can think of because you disagree with them just takes away from a discussion. That's what people do on YouTube. I would like to think the community here is a above that foolishness.

Most of the bullying disappeared after mods were taken down a notch during the TOU change.

The anonymity of most internet use allows reservations about honest opinions and also jerk behavior to be ignored because the consequences of saying things without a real face to the voice so to speak are less than if many people knew like seeing Edward Snowden versus Anonymous. I value honesty and good people.

The issue at hand here is the general disagreement between the users who have widely unpopular beliefs (usually unpopular for good reasons) and all the psychophantic, coat-tail dwelling hat stands who enjoy berating them for having those views.

All very weak people which ever side they are on... but I agree, there is no need to pick on individuals regardless of the things they say.

The problem with that is some people around here invest an awful lot of time here, and although to a degree you are right. The same can be said of people who spew insults. In fact there is more wrong with them.
