Watch him try that shit in public. I wonder if he went up to the "black table" at lunch in high school and though he could increase his blackness. Just playin', but dude was a chump.
I knew that guy was going to be trouble when I was on chat one night, that was when he first came on. Most if not all of the ladies on their welcomed him there as they should. During the chat, he made an insulting remark at me, I ignored him but, it stuck with me that he was going to be an issue. I for one will not be going back to the chat room. Its not for me.
I think it's pointless to get bent out of shape over someone's opinion being different from our own. Of course when it comes to human nature, it happens sometimes. If you disagree with someone's opinion, there's no need to be petty & ugly about it. If something offends you, it's like KS says, speak your mind & move the fuck on. It makes no sense to turn it into some personal vendetta. I recently got a negative rep from someone who didn't like my opinion about something. I could get mad about it, but what would be the point. What's funny about it is that the comments were attacking me on a personal level from someone that doesn't personally know me (of course the person was anonymous). I don't think it was called for because I wouldn't disrespect someone like that, BUT I'm not gonna get all bent over it. I'm not gonna take an attack personally if I don't think it applies to me; especially from someone that doesn't even know me. It's not worth stressing over shit that doesn't make a difference anyway. If someone decides they have an issue with you, let it be their problem.
When people insult you personally, why not retaliate? Those who rely on the "shock and awe" of cyber bullying aren't used to being bullied themselves. I think it's funny as hell when you verbally evicerate someone who is not used to being pushed back...
Doesn't bullying them back only reduce you to their level? That whole "two wrongs don't make it right" thing?
There's truth in what you say. There are 2 kinds of cyberbullies. One doesn't care about anything - and should be ignored. The other is trying to put you down in order to bring himself up - in the eyes of others. It is the second one that won't risk damage to his reputation - and will therefore stop attacking you.
I agree to an extent Anten, but I think it depends on the situation. From my recent hater experience it was obvious that the person wouldn't/couldn't comprehend anything I threw at 'em. It's a waste of my time & smart-ass mouth if I'm dealing with a moron, so why bother? The comments read like they were coming from a 10 year old picking on someone on the playground. Sad. The most cowardly bully aspect of it, of course, was the fact that they chose to be anonymous. That's another reason that retaliation is pointless; if I don't mention them by name, they'd have no comprehension that it was directed at them. As I said before, I'm going to let it be that person's problem, because I have better & more important things to do than deal with the juvenille bullshit I left behind in middle school.
I understand what you are saying but it seems to me that there are probably better ways to damage a bully's reputation other than being a bully yourself. If nothing else, most bullies end up ruining their own reputations when given enough rope to hang themselves with.
Kushton, you waste your time. I did a similar thread weeks ago and believe me, nothing changed. When people want to bring up shit in this place, they are gonna do it anyways and we can't pretend people not to see thay have been insulted as it's often happening. Hate it or love it. I think I'm going on the hating direction.
When someone gets super insulting towards me, I just ignore them. Then they'll never know how their words affected me (or didn't). :smt023
You make me sick. You're the worst poster in this forum's history. Do you even read what you type before clicking "Submit Reply"? You make no sense. Shut up and go back to your bottle of Similac. Try ignoring that, PUNK!
:smt062 I was so close to blasting you & jumping to Books rescue, but thought, hold up & do some research first. I got it, but it took me a minute... :smt081 totally deserving I gave her some love, she's pretty smart, huh? :smt054
