darkwingduck, you seem to think that the examples that I am using are from my own experience and that is not true. Yes, I have faced drama in previous games but this post is not personal to me.
As I said earlier and will continue to say, this post was made for the entire community to become more aware of what Cyberbullying is and how it can and does effect roleplay as a community. It is not fandom specific nor is it website specific.
Earlier, you said this: "I think it's unfair to compare RP comments (and speculating about them) with things like Facebook 'hate' communities, or horrible comments and insults circulating on someone's personal blog, youtube account or anything else,"
Why is it different if it is posted on someone's RP comments as opposed to someone's personal blog or youtube? Surely that person who is receiving hate comments on their blog or youtube has put a piece of themselves into their work, as do many roleplayers. To say anything else would be a great discredit to the creative process that many writers who roleplay go through when they publish something publicly for others to see, whether it be fan-fiction, RP or in a CDJ. It is no less personal to them than it is to someone posting a song on youtube that they wrote or a column in a blog.
I think to say that assuming makes you guilty of bullying is not fair - I never once said that every situation was the same and every person had the same experience, and I'm sorry if you read it that way. People are always going to perceive things differently and that's the beauty of an opinion. Opinions change as they become more full of information, which is all I intended to deliver with this post.
Thank you for taking the time to respond, I think you had very good points.
