Hello Offtopic! :)
I have come here this fine logical afternoon, night or morning depending where you guys live(hopefully not America...jkjk lol :p) anyways I wanted to help out a certain friend of mine in her campaign against Cyber Bullying, I know most of us here have experienced it before and certainly have either fought back or simply ignored it but I'm here to spread the word about her campaign as I believe is a great thing to start since not many have done this before. Anyways for those of you who wanna help out please check her channel through the provided link :)

Human emotion dictates reactionary deeds. This means some people won't be able to look away. Some people will go to extremes in anger to be vindictive or to try to hurt other people, in fact, I've been in forums where everyone knows each other and they'll ruthlessly clique up and gang bully one person, utterly decimating them with insults. Then that person goes and hangs themselves or jumps off a bridge. I'd never consider doing such a thing myself, because i think i can handle my own, but it happens to some people with weak constitution or character. And those that would simply say shut off your computer, man up, woman up are generally unable to see outside of their own perspective. They can't understand how a person that's clinically depressed or mentally unstable could go and end it because it's not in their own character to consider such a thing. What's relevant, though is that you're as messed up as the victim of bullying if you say stop being a victim just to absolve yourself of responsibility. Essentially giving yourself a license to promote relentless bullying rather than saying I'll stop if you stop too. Trying to justify the malicious by faulting the victim. This is the perpetual essence of the cycle that needs to be broken. Hate breeds hate. So i support this thread. And I hope the campaign succeeds. Pretty simple, folks. Just be human.
