Now that I think about it, I guess i was wrong. I HAVE been cyber-bullied. In fact, it was in this exact website. It will not mention any names because it's just plain rude but let's just call this guy Richard.

Richard was one of those elite designers, and I was a plain loser spamming levels full of cutoff and those stuff in the old portal. If you check in my old portal levels, you can see that i was a different person there then I was now. :? I made spammed exactly 281 levels in the old portal and I seemed like a 7 year old.

I was 2 years ago... Richard would go in all sorts of my levels that were full of spam and comment bad stuff about it and threaten me that he will report me. It got me pissed and I started swearing back at him. This other guy ( let's call him John ) would always side with him. Some other guys would side with me at times but Richard and John were a cyber-bullying duo that looked like they would never be stopped.

Until I decided to come here, to the forums. It felt like a different place than the portal with all sort of mature guys. I wasn't used to this before and didn't know much of the rules, Which got me banned 3 times :o_O: . Then I started adjusting to you guys and now became part of you. If Richard ( and maybe John ) ever came back, they would be surprised on how much I have changed during the years.


* lol, this seems like a life story here, but I really could help anyone who's being bullied. If this doesn't help, read the post i made on page 3. GM out.*

You know you wanna watch it.....

Wow....today I learned something....responding to the bullies can make them worse....

Two or three days ago inside a Facebook group, some of my class bullies joked about me writing English (since Filipino is usually used), then I joked back. And we just kept trading jokes.Then, one of my classmates implied that I'm arrogant. We had a short debate in English and eventually, he deleted his comments about the debate so I guess I looked like a fool. That led to another bully to post a joke comment, "This isn't English class." Then, we soon started trading jokes and later, some of the other bullies joined in. Their jokes quickly turned offensive and still, I tried to cope with it. Just yesterday in the actual school, they began "joking" about it and they would soon take it too far to the point that I was really mad. Later on, I was somewhat cyber-bullied and I found out that they were offended by my jokes although I didn't mean to offend them. One of my reactions was "What the f*ck? They started it but they would be the first to be offended so they will take it too far." and I became paranoid for a long time....

If they got offended but they started it, let 'em be offended. It's their fault.

That's my personal opinion...

The two things I like to do when dealing with cyberbullies are
1. Saying thank you.
2. Acting like I don't give a :censor:
3. Not responding.

Each time I try these tactics, they usually him/her away.

That was 3 things
Karyete, Master of Civil Conversation
Disclaimer: none of these messages have been edited, context can be provided if needed (thanks discord!) but absolutely does not change anything about these messages and that he's too overly defensive and cocky to make situations better

Karyete: I don't have anything to say to you, I've been deliberately trying to not offend you for years, actually, but apparently everything I say to you is wrong. You come across as so aggressive that you successfully intimidated me into not wanting to talk to you
Karyete: Seriously, what is your problem? And not only that, you fail to even acknowledge you might be in some wrong here.
Karyete: Oooh it's you? Hello. Feel free to drop this right now. You're going to make yourself look like an idiot.
Karyete: We don't want to hear your opinion at this stage.
Karyete: You're not getting any apology, especially after now.
Karyete: You can stay up on your high horse, continue to twist the truth and act like an absolute child all you want. I refuse to give respect to a man who right now is picking up a dropped argument because he simply cannot fathom the idea that he might be in the wrong.
Karyete: How pathetic
