I've tried doing these however I still get bullied a lot. My best friend always has my back in an argument but she's not always there. Sometimes it's just me against the bullies. I hope none of you get bullied but if you do just stay strong and keep your head up.

Actually works. Had some kid who would talk all this shit online and stare me down when he was around friends. One day when he was walking out of class I walked up to him and confronted him. Talked in a stern voice, made eye contact the whole time and confronted him. We ended up shaking hands and respected both ways. Confidence goes a long ways. Thanks for the help Shane.

Stalker bully is bullying and threatening on my electronics. It’s too easy for sexual predators to get away with stalking because of apps

1. Block them
2. Delete you social media account

Simple solution to getting cyber bullied. Send the bully the link to two girls one cup

[TheGeckoNinja]

another easy way is blocking them, even if they make another account to message you again block that one as well, remember you just have to click block while they have to take the time to make a new account just to get one message in before you block them again and make them go through the whole process again XD

My mom wouldn't allow me to be friends with them, because they were a bad influence, so I ended my friendship with them. As I did that, they started sending messages about me and my mom, insulting me, I sent it all to my teacher, but nothing is gonna be done about it and I'm honestly sick of it..

I am a 19 year old autistic adult that is being bullied, cyberstalked, and harassed by teenagers in some communities in some aminos in the amino app for 3 years, it's annoying as hell.

These children are accusing me of those things but they have no proof and i wish someone would make them stop but idk how.

I am constantly being cyber bullied and hated on this app called Musical.ly. I made a Musical.ly about @babyariel when she used "original sound" and EVERYBODY blew up my phone saying your head is shaped like an alien's head or Why did you copy her that's dumb and another person on a different musical told me to, " Shut the f*** up" And I just can't do it anymore I've been bullied ALL MY LIFE and it's so hard to go thru!!!

The problem.is they are spreading gossip and rumors in daily life including at workplace.

Man the way my school settles bullying and cyber bullying is when you see them from the back you clock them and don't stop.

Lol someone’s harassing me (a previous close internet friend) because they can’t handle a different opinion, we had a discussion a few months ago and they’ve been harassing me every other day since, comedy gold.

Shane I'm a 15 year old boxer who has got in to my county finals which my match is tomorrow and so many of your tips have helped thank you

This is a great subject, since many people either don't teach about this, don't really know how to deal with it, or plainly have no idea how to deal with this.

Documentation is huge when it comes to any harassment, and that's really all cyber-tough guys or "trolls" are doing is just that.  Another thing is make sure there are people that are informed.  I know bullies don't have to shut up just because someone else tells them to, but make it harder on them to get their cyber voice out there.  On here report things, not just block them, remove them, or spam them report them and red flag them on here as well as on various media out there.  You can report the comment and if you keep reporting eventually that personality of that "troll" will vanish, but be weary, more will show up most of the time its several accounts and one person.

If you're still a minor make sure this is also being shown to your parents and don't delete anything!  Keep all of the correspondence including email, if you have phone calls use speaker phone with as many witnesses as possible or try and record that conversation with another phone. 

The hardest part about this is there will not be a quick ending.  Maintain a positive outlook on yourself and really know, that the vast majority of these keyboard warriors don't know you and saying things just to stir the pot.
