  1. So my Computer Skills teacher showed the class this video. Its about bulling and cyber bulling which seems like a real problem on this server when I was still on harassment was a real issue and I see player reports of it still so I just wanted to bring it up to everyone

    Yes, bullying is very harmful to one's mental and emotional fragility. That's the flaw with being human, you have emotions. Bullies tend to feed off of it because, usually of some sort of impotence or short-coming. I was bullied for being chubby in elementary school. Until I decided to learn a few martial arts styles and play football. Until my graduation day I would help those who are being bullied, by (this is in no way justification for my actions, violence is wrong period) meeting the bullies with equal or greater force. The server overall has a great player base. Besides the occasional "F*g" I really enjoy my time on the server.

    EDIT: Sorry, forgot to say that the video is great and very deep. It hit a spot with me and brought back all those feelings from when I was bullied in school. Cannot stress enough how important it is that we treat each other as humans. No one is above or below anyone in this world. But throughout life you will meet people who honestly think they are god's gift to the Earth. Just be weary that bullying takes a different level when you reach adulthood. It becomes a possession status, aka "He with the most gold when he dies, wins."

    I've seen the video. But while yes, harassment can be emotionally scarring the fact is - it's nature for people to harass. Nothing will change it. It will never go away. Cracking down on it more is a plausible solution, but at the same time it could be more preferable to setup other routes to get it dealt with. For example, permanent gags or mutes. Or length gags/mutes.
