    Aw no. <3 He's cool. XD

    but there are a lot of e-thugs out there who try to e-bully, haha
    I've seen too much of this. o.o This concept is ridiculous. XD Yet true. So much e-flaming and drama and bullying...it's like Real Life. Only anonymous style.


    Hey BioAlien, it's always us shy people that are targets. D: We're like bully magnets. >.>

    These days, GIRLS are being bullied by BOYS which is just terrible. =/ It happened at my old school. I kept getting sexually harassed by these group of guys and I just decided to leave the school. Wow. I'm so brave. ^^; But now that I'm at an all girls school, I've been much happier.

    I'm also reminded of that case where the 13/14 year-old girl was harassed on myspace and ended up hanging herself. Good times.

    <@Terra> he told me this, "man actually meeting terra is so fucking big", and he started crying. Then he bought me hot dogs

    Yeah XD

    harssed ONLINE and then she committed suicide? o_o Seriously?

    Anyway, I think I would rather get in trouble by kicking someone's ass when they are harassing me to the point of leaving a school.. than leave and miss all my friends... IMO. (Or kick their ass, say it was self-defense, then leave... maybe I like fighting too much) It doesn't really happen much in the upper grades of high school, though. Yaay high school!
    >.> Not all of us risk our lives. My parents would most likely blamed me and kicked my ass.

    And that's one classic fight story.

    It's a pretty sad that it happened, but the girl was already pretty disturbed. She had been diagnosed with Depression long before the incident occurred. Even if she didn't have a myspace, it's likely that something like this would have happened anyway.

    Never, anywhere. I'm not good material for this thread. I always had a good bunch of friends back in school, and people with steadfast friends don't get systematically bullied (unlike in anime/manga/visual novels where all your friends suddenly disappear if you get bullied even once). Well, there wasn't that much bullying in general in those schools I attended.

    I've never been involved in bullying. I've "harassed" people but they were cool with it because it was just for fun.

    What is the definition of bullying atleast as far as this thread goes. I think I have been or atleast people have attempted to bully me. I was and still am completely antisocial for the most part, so despite being popular I usually am and would much rather be all by myself. So always being by myself and being a quiet guy most people usually assume I'm good fodder which is exactly what I like.

    I don't have much patience for stupidity so any attempts to bully me or even intimidate me are met with a strong front. Whether that means talking people down or breaking their jaw depends on the person.

    Considering my shy nature, I've been bullied a lot.. I hated it of course, one day it went a bit too far during music class, they kept punching me on my shoulder (By some shear coincidence, they were sitting right next to me), I snapped, I hit one of them with my instrument and glared furiously at the other one.. they were laughing.. those two bastard were having fun at me snapping.. I decided to take my stuff and leave, the stupid blind/deaf bitch of a "teacher" asked why I was leaving and .. I don't even remember what I said, but one thing I know, I ended up quitting that fucking school and went to a "special" school(Inside a recreation center) for "drop out" and "problem students"(Not that there was any.. all students were pretty much 13-16 years old), heck I even made friends there, something I didn't manage to do in a normal school.

    I really liked my two years in that school, we were only 50~ students, 3 teachers, 1 "directer", 1 psychologist and some other personnel I rarely saw.., we only had the primary subject and 2 other(French/English/Math/PE and IT).
    There was only 1 "bully" there, and he ended up getting expelled from school.. less than a month after his arrival.
    After those 2 years, I went to an adult school, where fighting/bullying were sanctioned (Heck, there was camera pretty much everywhere) by expulsion. I didn't see any bully there, some idiots, but no bully.

    My middle school had pretty clearly defined cliques. I was not part of the "popular group" so I spent 3rd-8th grade being called gay by white trash and lower-class Hispanic kids. A few of my friends had that problem too. At the time I'd say it was easy to ignore because I knew they were idiots, and I had some good friends, but thinking back I do feel a little disappointed in myself for not really "standing up" as much as I should have.

    High school was pretty rad and aside from more morons, there were no "bullies" and most people were decent guys (that is, by 17 year-old standards).

    I'm happy to have found out that many of the people from my middle school aren't very well off now, and the few that are are the people I'd always suspected would be.

    As did I, except without the white trash. My middle school was probably like 90% hispanic, totally ghetto (though it wasn't in a bad area or anything), and I was pretty miserable the two years I was there. Lots of mexicans picking on me.

    There was one guy in high school that picked on me a bit, too. I remember he used to smack me in the elbow with a book as a way of saying "hey," which hurt like hell. I almost snapped a few times but for the most part I was able to keep my cool, just because at the time I was a goody-two-shoes and didn't want to get expelled. Anyways, the kid fell into the emo/scene thing later on and got made fun of by virtually every person that even shot a cursory glance in his direction, so karma played its part I guess.

    Other than that, I haven't really been picked on.

    I was probably bullied in like elementary school, but if I was it was my own fault. Haha. I haven't seen anyone in high school get "bullied", but there are a lot of e-thugs out there who try to e-bully, haha.

    after having a fall out with the 'cool kid' in elementary school, I logically became the target of a good amount of teasing. it didn't help that my parents were absolutely clueless as to how a kid's life had changed since the '50's.

    At first I handled it exactly as I'd been raised, turn the other cheek, defend myself with logical arguments, and then go cry somewhere when I was sure nobody could see me. After about a year and a half of that, I opted for fighting instead. I was a little crazy, challenging kids to fight after school over just about any stupid thing they could tease me about. But, even though I didn't always win (maybe half the time, if that), it was enough to have kids back off from teasing me.

    I didn't have to deal with much bullying in high school, and, by the end, I'd actually picked up the habit of being pretty mean to this one little shit who always tried to worm his way in with my friends. By then it was more about having a decent comeback than knowing how to fight.

    So, yeah, my advise is to fight back. It doesn't matter if you lose, what matters is that you're willing to stand up for yourself.

    Humans are different from animals. We must die for a reason. Now is the time for us to regulate ourselves and reclaim our dignity. The one who holds endless potential and displays his strength and kindness to the world. Only mankind has God, a power that allows us to go above and beyond what we are now, a God that we call "possibility".

    I wouldn't really consider it bullying since I have usually picked on people who are able to defend themselves, and usually deserve it because they pick on other people. I guess you could call that rationalization, and in that case it makes me a bully. Other then me maybe bullying a bit I have never really been bullied, but I have never been a shit disturber either... same cannot be said about my friends though, lol.

    I guess I had it really easy.

    Both my middle schools and high schools were large enough that most people found their own respective places. Sure there were cliques, but their either intermingled or kept far apart from each other.

    My grade alone in elementary/middle school was over 100, huge considering how small the town is. There were a choice few people who were ostracized, but they hung out in their own little groups and most cliques didn't bother each other. Basically, you either played a 30 person game of touch football, a 15 person game of touch football, played basketball, or sat around at recess. There were fights, sure, but bullying never really happened.

    My high school was even larger, probably 550-650 people per grade level, so everyone had a place in one group or another. Cliques didn't really exist at all. A lot of people moved between the groups from day to day. You ate lunch with whoever was around at the time, and due to the staggered schedule to fit all the students into the cafeteria, people came and went during lunch, mixing when necessary.

    Actually now that I come to think of it, people in middle school could be pretty viscous. Hell, I see them often now and they think it is okay to laugh or talk about people who are different from them, tease them/attempt to make them feel bad about themselves, etc. Middle school kids are pretty lost. D;

    It's probably worse nowadays since every 12 year-old has a myspace or a facebook.

    I'm sure that doesn't help matters at all. Sort of overlaps with the e-bullying you mentioned. The he-said/she-said gossip must be impossible to deal with.
