I see where you coming from. I've been in this community 4ish years (I dont remember if its 3 or 4, oh well) and it's never really been any different. Theres that 'top' group, middle-top group, middle and then low. Everyone knows where they fit in. I'd say the easiest way to stop it is to 1-not piss anyone off and 2-If someone makes you mad, be nice to them. I've learned that being nice to someone actually gets under their skin more then if you come back with "Go kill yourself" or start arguing. Plus, you seem more like a nice person so more people respect you.

Sadly, we cant do anything to fix this. If we went around banning, there would be no one in the community.

i feel like 90% of the "bullying" is because people like to see others over react, and sometimes the reactions are pretty funny, if the people getting "bullied" would just drop it and not argue or react to them, then they probably wouldnt bullied because there is no reaction involved.

[Boblob801]

Like I said, this post is about bullying. This is exactly what I'm talking about with what o'hagan and everyone else who dogpiles on. You guys are proving my point further. Here's an example. Kid gets made fun of at school for standing up for his opinion, or being different than everyone else. Everyone hops in on making the kid a mediocrity. Kid gets metaphorically backed into a corner. Next day, school shooting from kid who was being bullied. It's the same message.

Thats not even remotely the same. Horrible comparison, clearly I genuinely have no idea whats going on but in your case I do have first hand experience on the whole "Bullying" thing. You really aren't one to talk and to be completely honest I wouldn't in the slightest bit be surprised if it was in fact your own fault. I have seen the way you react and behave and as Mason stated you have a short temper, you go off and some people get mad, others start to troll for the lols. What O'Hagan said came across as a joke, I even liked the comment on facebook because I thought it seemed extremely harmless, nek minnit you tell him to go kill himself, I mean come on. You can't start a movement for bullying when you yourself take part at times. I mean look at what you said to Alexis, no reason behind it other than "Freedom of speech".

Did you just try to compare a school shooting to a grown man being prodded by teenagers, and did you really take a situation from a Pearl Jam song to do so?

[WellsMX524]

I'm guessing you forgot to read the part where age doesn't come into play when someone's talking about your kids. "Prodded" is hardly the term you shoul be using.

[KTM57]

Your reactions are the only reason that this goes on. Do you think that a bunch of dumbass kids are worth your time? This thread is a great example of the show that you put on when you get into something.

[Evo997]

I know what you are talking about. I am not saying any names but it happened to me. Someone told me they wanted to do something to my daughter and hopped she died. Uncalled for

This is the stuff that is annoying. Not the spastic kids waving their dicks around to see whose is bigger. Although, if you disable the chat, all problems are solved. Also, forum life and real life are kept as far apart as possible.

People take stuff way too seriously around here...The funnest race of my life was last night in last place. People let their emotions take over on this game, and i personally do not understand it at all.

Raging on this game is retarded, and the death threats are even worse.

DDavis made a death threat on himself last night over this game for christ sake lol....Some people need to go outside.

[Burkeen820]

Obviously I'm new to the community and all but all I've got to say is everyone quit being dickheads and everything will be fine Its a game, do what it was made for and have some fun every once in a while, hell, maybe all the time if you're lucky
