...*facepalm* Trying to say that just because we are communicating over a different medium it's not reality is just... seriously?

You obviously don't understand what I'm saying at all. Let me spell it out, virtual world vs real life. On the internet, you can be whatever the hell you want. You can say that you are 6"5 and 300lbs of pure muscle and people would believe you. You can post a picture of someone else you found on Google and say that it's you and people would believe you. People do that on dating sites all the time. On the internet, you can be anything. Now bullying/trolling/harassing/etc, you should not take seriously. Why? Because someone trying to fuck with you with no backup proof is laughable.

Example A
Read both of those dmails that were sent. Can you honestly take that person seriously? This person's intention is to hurt the admin's feelings. Did it work? No, because that person just proved that he is immature, inferior, and not even worth spending any of your precious time to deal with. What did they do to fix this "problem"? BLOCKED. "What if he makes an alt"? BLOCKED. "What if he makes multiple alts"? BLOCKITY BLOCK BLOCKED.

Now let's go into the real world. Unlike the internet, you can't be whatever you want due to laws, rules, or limitations in general. You cannot claim that you're 6"5 and 300lbs of pure muscle when you're actually 5"7 and 150lbs. You cannot have a picture of someone else and say that it's you because you're not the same person. Now bullying in real life is a problem. Threats, abuse, etc happening to you in real life has a more pshycological affect than harsh words on a screen.

In the capacity of you just not letting bullying get to you, no, you aren't the problem. In the capacity of being dismissive of bullying being a problem at all, yes, you are the problem.

Never said or implied that I am dismissive about bullying, so no, I am not the problem. Bullying/bullies are the problem in whole. "Cyber-bullies" are just immature trolls that can't do nothing but talk shit. It's annoying but not permanent.

A great way to solve bully problems.

Edit: Well, effective, if not great.

Okay. That just made my day

I was bullied from first grade all the way through high school. I was made fun of because of my weight. In high school, I was talking to a friend of mine about furry stuff. This one kid called me a furfag in front of the entire class. Needless to say, he got in a lot of trouble for that. There was another kid who physically bullied me twice. The first time, he made a comment and when I confronted him and asked him to stop, he tried to kick me in the groin, but missed and hit my thigh. The second time was on my birthday in P.E. He made another comment, and when I told the teacher what he said, they pulled him aside and confronted him. He then proceeded to run at me head-on and grab my shirt. That was the last time he ever did that. I know, I sound like a dipshit here, but this was back when I was a bit dumb.

I as well, although holy fuck finding someone to talk to about 'furry stuff' in high school would be a brave endeavour. Commendations good sir.

Me, I was a gangly little spazoid with poor social sense, and I got my fill of bullying for it. Even for as little as trying to talk to someone, I would be met with a verbiage of profanity and the laughter that followed. If I knew I could just beat the shit out of my aggressors with no actual consequences, things would probably have been better.

Most of people here are from USA right?

Well, they could take in account that making threats or demeaning statements , while using electronic communications (included Internet, of course) is considered an legal offense there, as shortly was stated by FBI representative: "Using broad-based communication channels to threaten, harm and intimidate and then incite others to do the same will not be tolerated.":

•Threatening another person, or his property or reputation
Examples: "Have you taken those photos of the kids as I recommended? Because the last day that you see them is close to hand" (1, 2; more); "Get ready for a visit... that's a promise" (here; more). It may also take the form of a threat against a group: "I'm targeting all Jews in my area, and when they get it they will never know what hit them" (here; more). This may also take the form of extortion: that unless the victim does something, or stops doing something, harm will come to her, her children, her property, or her reputation. We presume it also takes the form of indirect threats such as, "We also know you have a dog you love very much... you are warned." (from archives; coming.)

•Threatening or harassing another person while hiding behind a fictitious identity --- or knowingly allowing one's website to be used for this purpose

•Soliciting others to commit a crime of violence
Examples: "Won't someone please kill xxxx?"; "Someone really needs to kill xxxx. I'll post his address. Want his pictures, too? I'd hate to have to give them out, but..." (from archives; coming.)

As well as many states have laws which that prohibit "spreading rumors or posting degrading, harmful, or explicit pictures, messages, or information using social media or other forms of electronic communication" (also known as "cyberbullying");
"taunting or making sexual slurs about a person's gender orientation or sexual status"; "name-calling, joking, or making offensive remarks about a person's religion, gender, ethnicity, or socioeconomic status"/

No toothbrush or foreskin-based jokes for these bullies? Man they missed out.

Updated by anonymous

Name calling, joking, and offensive remarks are all protected speech, the rest of that is questionable at best.

The federal laws are the only ones that would actually stand a constitutional challenge of the laws.

Under the First Amendment to the US constitution, it is.
You are legally allowed to insult whoever you like.

The supreme court has constantly upheld this, even against police.

As long as the speech isn't threatening, or intended to incite violence, as per the fighting words doctrine.

Don't believe it?
Google "westboro baptist church".

Verbal bullying can also be considered slander on some cases. I've never heard of these cases but hey, its possible I guess

Not quite sure what's going on but if it makes you feel any better, I think a all natural uncut member is rather sexy (and chubby can be really cute too).

Ask Moon Moon and Patchi. I'm sure they can fill you in. I'm glad that I'm uncircumcised. Circumcision is like mutilation, IMO.

Google "westboro baptist church".

keywords here are "Directed at police officers". There's a rather wide gap between how much abuse police are expected to withstand and how much is acceptable for the average person, as noted with the quote, "because a properly trained officer may reasonably be expected to exercise a higher degree of restraint than the average citizen, and thus be less likely to respond belligerently to fighting words.'"
