Have you ever been bullied on WP?

Post Reply New Topic

I don't regard it as "bullying" but I do often get called a "conspiracy theorist" and "arrogant" and "egotistical" and "alien" and "prophet" and "crazy" and "woo-ist" and various other such things (not necessarily on WP but I do sometimes get some of it here on occassion). Even had a guy with "Bishop" in his name tell me that I had a "pathetic" mind so I simply thanked him for showing his true colours and decided that his thread needed a "Why the subject of his thread-title is bullocks" video from You-Tube (that I added into the thread of course).

For the most, part, though, most of the participants of most of the threads I've been in have been more-or-less civilised, and interested in actual-discussions, rather than playing the war-game of ad-hominems.

Yes, I do get bullied here on WP from time to time, but I just ignore it so the bullies can not only feel bad about themselves, but to pick on someone else worth their time.

You should never give in to the Bully.

The Bully wants you to feel bad, because he feels bad.

The best thing to do is to just ignore said Bully.

You're a well-respected man, Rocket. I'm sure more people like you than you think in the "real world."

I wouldn't worry about some slimy Bully.

Yes I have been bullied on here before and I would unfortunately lash back and do insults. I also know someone on here provoked me too. I have also been bullied by a mod and I handled it by posting about it on other forums after she was demodded and doing a celebration party, before that I handled it by talking about it over and over obsessively, on forums and to people privately and that was how my account got deleted. Then after that that ex mod tried to provoke me to get me banned again but me and other members could see right through it so I wouldn't let myself respond to it even though it was very tempting.

Now it's been years since I have last been bullied here.

If somebody wants to try to bully me....Make My Day!

Seriously, Rocket. You're a smart guy. The Bully is so below you that you could step on him like he's a gnat.

As for me, if somebody bullies me, I'll tell my Daddy on them! My Daddy can beat your Daddy, you bully!

Yes I was bullied on wp before

Hello Rocket,

I read that thread and I must say that guy is out of order. The comments he made not just to you but also the other users were very disgusting. You were giving all the answers you could give him and instead of showing some gratitude he was rude to you in return and had the nerve to get offended when you responded to him after he made those rude comments. He was 100% in the wrong and you were 100% in the right. For me it is very clear that he created that thread to bully other users. He didn't care who it was, he just wanted to be mean to someone, probably because he is a sad no-lifer who's so desperate for attention but isn't getting any in real life so he compensates for that by going on a forum and putting other people down to make himself feel better. He is a troll, and he deserves to be banned.

Also it's important you acknowledge that reporting bullies ≠ tattling. Tattling is when someone reports really trivial things not because they're upset by it but to cause trouble to make themselves feel better. You have every right to report him and not feel like you're tattling. If you report him it's more likely that the problem will be brought to the moderators' attention quicker and it'll get sorted out quicker. Think of it like this: bullies are like vampires, they thrive in darkness. Shed some light and they crumble away.

Hope this helps

I've been attacked here occasionally but I just put it down to random uncontrollable outbursts. Kinda like a raving lunatic in the street.

Yes.

Only by some illuminated christian who insulted every atheist on here.
