Personally I think that killing yourself or being over dramatic because some said "You're gay" or "You're a retard". Is
stupid. Even if it's constant harassment. Just shut of the computer. But anyways, enough of me. I want to hear your opinions. KEEP IT CIVIL

Cyberbullying is more than just people being dicks to you online. It's more than that. It's incessant harassment and following you around. It's spreading false information or incriminating photos of you without your consent. It's easy for it to spill over into real life, too. Spreading things about you around your school? To your coworkers? To strangers on the internet? These things have a real-life impact.

If you can stop a cyberbully by closing the window or hitting "mute", it isn't cyberbullying. Bullying is much more pervasive.

Most cases of cyber-bullying is a case of "someone hurt muh feels" combined with "this thing is new (the internet), how do it work?". The legitimately serious cyber bullying stuff is already covered under harassment and other cyber protection laws as is. In short it's a bunch of people complaining they don't know how things work.

It's a serious fucking problem, and people who victim blame are either idiots or cyber bullies themselves.

Bullying someone you know IRL, via cyberbullying is lame. Bullying randoms on the internet, perfectly acceptable.

Almost always, with moderation
When its someone that harasses you both IRL and online then I could see why it could be a problem. If its some random individual, then they should just be ignored.

Cyberbullies can be stopped by reporting and muting. And anyone that's offended by something said online iso badly they have suicidal thoughts is an idiot. The only excuse comes when it's along with IRL bullying

You'd be surprised.

I'm sure I wouldn't, most. 5 year olds can handle themselves on the internet, anyone that "can't cope" with it are looking for it

Again, you'd be surprised. People are willing to go crazy lengths to hunt down and harass people they don't like.

Then that's physical?

It's mental and emotional abuse. Not all bullies use physical force.

But it's easy to prevent

If I'm not here, I'm doing photography. Or I'm asleep. Or in lockdown. One of those three, anyway.

The current titlebar/avatar setup is just normal.
If it's simple insults or empty threats, then frankly you need to take people less seriously and have a break from the computer. E.g. whenever I hear someone complaining about someone sending hatemail or that sorta thing, I can't see why you can't delete it and ignore them. (Obviously this is different compared to if a bully was doing it irl and continuing it online, but places like here, for example, I could just block it and end it there.)

If it's online stalking and psychological shit, i.e. hacking my FB and posting incriminating pictures of me (somehow), then I'm pretty sure it crosses over into breaking the law.

It's rather serious. What goes on online also transitions to the real world. If somebody posts an embarrassing photo or video of you and it goes viral then you're going to be looked at and laughed at by a lot of others. Plus you have the fact people face harassment, stalking, blackmail, extortion, etc by people hiding behind false identities and that makes the circumstances even worse as you don't know who the person is unlike seeing their face in the real world
