Really? Please provide a link to it. It sounds relevant. You seem online a lot. What is it making up for? If anything? What do you thing of Jade and the girls actions? Is it a girl thing? Or, do guys do it?

This threads more about the event's of big brother, although that one shows paralells I guess. It certainly shows people following someone. In the same way Jade was followed within the house. So yes I guess it's a little similar. Interseting and thank you for posting it. I guess online communities are microcosms with loud mouths and followers just like the big brother house.

Online = real life?

Only if you consider Big Brother real life. I think though certain problems in society might be more obviously identified online than in real life. Although online will never be like real life as distances and anonymity prevent the obvious retribution that would take place in real life for bullies. It makes it easier though for some simple bullying tactics to be exploited as most habitual online posters are often hiding from something or seeking validation of some type.

Big Brother is certainly not like real life. I agree with Dirk Benedict.

Online also you come across a lot of "empty vessels". No, it's not real life.

So true, but unfortunately that option is not always available.

Big Brother rather than bringing up the issue of Racism has brought up Mob Bullying? Have any members been bullied online or in real life. Is that why you come online? What are your thoughts on England are we a nation of bullies? Why do people bully? What is bullying?
In real life yes quite frequently. It stopped after I tried to strangle one of them and bash anothers head into a cinderblock.
Online I can just ignore trolls.
People bully because they cannot accept being ignored. By bullying they can force others to pay attention to them.
The advice of 'just ignore the bully' is as a result both good and bad. By ignoring a bully it can enrage the person and make the bullying worse. However, if the bully finds that he/she cannot get a rise out of the person it is possible the bully will stop.

I'm assuming by this point you felt quite desperate and had tried other methods to diffuse the situation. It's a sad story you were forced into such a desperate act. I feel for your pain.

In big brother we saw a group of ill educated women bullying another woman because really she was more intelligent and cultured than they were. I believe when women bully men it is usually because the man is less intelligent and or in awe of women, because he is not used to them. Perhaps he spends most of his evenings in alone online? Who knows?
