It has come to my attention that many of my fellow community members are being bullied by other people within this very community. And most of the bullying is taking place via private chats. Furthermore, most of this bullying is going unreported and the bullies go from victim to victim playing the very same cruel "games". Which is why I feel that I should remind all of you a few things.
To those who become a victim of bullying:
I know you may be afraid to come forward and report whoever is bullying you, but you need to report every bullying incident not only for your sake, but also for the sake of your fellow community members who may become future victims of bullying.
To those who think it is OK to bully people:
Bullying is cruel, insensitive, immoral, and disrespectful. You should be ashamed of yourselves. Furthermore, bullying is a form of harassment and is in fact a crime that can carry heavy penalties and legal implications that will haunt you for years whether you are an adult or not.
On an ending note, I have remained silent and watched many people be bullied both ingame and outside too. And it is time I spoke out against this and called for reform. And to those who might accuse me of "stirring drama", this post has nothing to do with that. It is merely bringing attention to a very real an serious problem around here. In fact, it is one of the primary things that is driving people away from this game these days. We need change and we need it now.
