nice Arcie ^^ And if they get really annoying/offensive, press the Report button that is next to Quote, and they will be reported.

JUST IGNORE IT.


The annoying thing about rpg's in fourms are that when a cyberbully comes on one, he/she will post a message that may say innapropriate or rude and offensive things on the fourm, causing a chain reaction.

First, the abuser will say something to anger or offened the users in the fourms, and then, the users will say something back, which makes the situation WORSE. Then a Mod may come on to try and sort out the problem. Hopefully, they will, and ban the abuser. Sometimes, that's not the case, as I've noticed. It goes to a whole new level; banning the fourm for everyone. That isn't always fair, because the abuser was the only one who was being rude.

It angers the others, and the abuser just makes a new account, usually. Me and my friends were on a Text-based fourm, called, WOTF TNG RPGING. We were banned from it because of three people who came on and insulted us, trying to ban the foum.

ONE was banned. The others got off the hook safely.

The one that was banned made multiple accounts, and was not punished anymore.

We WERE. The whole fourm was completely banned, when we weren't doing anything.

I am now aware that the abuser is going around the fourms,  insulting others.
   Just ignore them, and they'll realize they can't get a reaction out of you, and they'll move on. Do NOT insult them back. It doesn't work.

This is somewhat a duplicate of 'Don't feed the trolls.'
  Click New Members, and click the sticky saying, 'Don't feed the trolls.'
     Oh, and it's closing, not banning. Does a topic have a I.P. Address?

Hey. I wasn't trying to get it closed. You shouldn't tell lies about people over the internet. It's just not right.

Where's your exeunt? They'll just argue with you.....

Let's not get into discussing specific bans and such - or "naming names" for that matter.... Thanks 

If you're not happy with the moderators' decisions, the best thing to do is contact the Scratch Team and describe the problem to them so they can look into it. It's ok, sometimes misunderstandings like that happen.
