Yes you are in the wrong forum, this goes in the psychology forum but I think Geek's violent outburst was uncalled for. Just because this is the internet doesn't mean you can cuss whoever, wherever or whenever you want -_-
As for cyber bullying, I am against any sort of bullying be it cyber or in physical form, however cyber bullying is harder to deal with since the bully is hiding behind the computer/phone screen probably miles away and talks whatever he wants knowing nothing can happen to him. It is best to leave these losers alone, let them cuss you, just ignore them, its them making themselves look like hopeless fools with no lives of which 90% are probably 13 or younger.
In life, I usually get violent with the bully to put him in place, not usually the best way to solve issues but with most cases bullies leave you alone....or it may get worse
But online really don't mind them they just have nothing better to do, find other people to talk to, there are better people -
I agree completely. I also thank you for telling me where to put this thread. Right now I have a lot of posts here already so at this point I honestly don't care where this is placed, but what it is discussing.
I don't, however, agree that we should just leave it alone. I think most of the people that are bullying are younger than me and that's how I can stand up for myself. On the other hand, there are some little kids getting bullied that don't know how to handle therefore, just getting bullied even more. They need to know how to deal with this situation.
Every bully is uncalled for and thank you everyone for making a post on this. If you are having trouble with bullying, I hope that this helped. -
If you would like to share/discuss about bullying, please post here and we will give our thoughts.

In your first post you said that cyber bullying is prominent in the lounge. Take this there. It's irrelevant here since this forum is for debate and that's what we're doing.
-
Um, well, I assume you're right but I think if I take this there than they will throw it around like a bag of crap.
They don't think about anything up there. When you're up there you don't think you just type. It is most common in the Lounge area, but if they want to fix it, they need to go digging around to find this and post what they think.
Also thank you for pointing that out and actually reading everything. Most people look at long posts and say," So many words," and up missing a good conversation. The first time I came here I was cyber-bullied by Br0wnie, profile picture: A black cat. He drived me absolutely insane. I learned to accept it and he moved on. I haven't seen any of his posts lately and I think he's actually thought of what he did wrong and thought he would never be forgiven so he gave up and moved on.
I'm glad everyone is drowning themselves with this information. If you have any concerns about cyber-bullying or anything in relation please post it here. -
A persuasive post requires ethos, pathos, and logos.
A plea for the acknowledgement of cyber bullying is a plea to the pathos. It's an emotional plea. This would be effective if you actually acknowledged the other two parts of persuasive writing.
You openly admit to denying logos. It isn't logical to complain about bullying in the lounge here. We aren't the lounge.
You're also trying to appeal to The Garden. That isn't ethical simply because The Garden is a debate forum. If you can't handle someone calling you mean names then you really shouldn't be here.
Also, I witnessed brownies "bullying you". While it would get annoying, the only thing that kept them going was that they were getting a response out of you. Grow up, stop playing the victim, and move on with your life. -
I think this would fit nicely in The Study actually..but I dunno,lol.

What bob^ said.
Also, what happened between you and br0wnies was /not/ cyberbullying. -
@Carri04: If you call someone a curseword, I'm pretty sure that's bullying and to do it on the Internet, well, that's cyber-bullying!
barberbob2: I really don't care about my ethos, pathos, and logos. I don't need that. This shouldn't be persuasive, it should be a statement. I want to change and I want to cleanse our wrong doings. I am grown up and as we all get older, this issue WILL be immense. I want to help stop it.
Jade66sick: You may complain about where I put this subject, but as long as others are involved, I would like it to stay. -
At friends house
Dialogue consists of callling each other motherf---ers
a--holes
Gays
And insulting tiny dongs.
And that's a friends house!
Not bullying. -
Trust me, Geek, we aren't all friends here.
-
Is it just me or are you following me like a butthurt kid?
-
Those are people who are close to each other. My friends and I joke around and sometimes a few words get out but at least we say "Just Kidding, your not a *bleep*." I get your point though. Sometimes people slip and not even know it. The people who do this most are the one's that use these words commonly...
-
And alotbof people swear every other sentence due to bad areas they were brought up around etc.
-
Like some people I know...
