I am assuming everyone in TSR are educated and are well versed with the adverse effect of cyberbullying. Yet some of them still do it?!. I wish there was a way to report a violent comments because you never who how old the victim is and his/her mental state

I have met some really, really nice people on here. And then some really, really horrible people too. The key is to distance yourself, become detached to others' ****. Honestly. Anyone young or sensitive on this site reading my comment, ignore the bullies on here (and in life in general). You get nothing out of engaging with people who argue about the most pointless things online. They are probably bored out of their mind and need some validation. Think of what these cyberbullies post as random computer-generated content. Ignore it. Anyone with a little bit of decency would not go out of their way to make another miserable.

Please report rule breaking content, as ecolier says the VT etc do try to keep eyes peeled but it's hard to be everywhere especially as we are Volunteers! By reporting it you are alerting the paid admins to it and it can get sorted out. If there is one user specifically targeting you constantly you can raise it in a forum called ask the community staff and they will look into it for you

I never heard from them again.
Then there was somebody who said they were a Cambridge medical student, and asked for my younger son's email address. I did direct them towards ecolier's neurology thread and Sitran, but they didn't want to know, they just wanted to talk to M. Despite the fact that there must be many more qualified people they can talk to at Cambridge.

To be fair, I think I'd swap 'social media platforms' for 'TSR' in your thread title. From what I've seen, I wouldn't say TSR had too bad a problem with stuff like this, compared to other online fora. It's not perfect, but nothing is in reality.

If you see it, then report it. The only way it can really be stopped is if it's brought to the mods attention, it's not like they can be around literally all of the time.
I have noticed though that some people tend to be quite soft on here, some people just have that blunt demeanour and that's been construed as "cyberbullying" rather than a characteristic.

Because people like to degrade/humiliate others. Although it is not acceptable. Plus there is an advantage of being anonymous on here so it increases the risk of being able to bully even more. The best thing is to ignore any violent comments or threats. The internet is just a virtual platform.

It's the meerkats that really get my goat (no pun intended).
Bite me, leave my nose with chew marks and everybody else seems to think they are sweet little darling celebrities of the "compare the market" adverts.

Bah humbug!

That's the nature of the digital world- lots of users, cloak of anonymity and limited law enforcement presence.
Trolls, bullies and criminals have established a constant presence on social media.
TSR has more effective moderation than most other websites and the bad apples tend to get banned very quickly.
Facebook, twitter, instagram, youtube, yahoo and reddit are filled with cyberbullies.
The situation on a lot of gaming sites is much worse and 4chan is an open horror show.
