All of that...over a bunch of idiots on World of Warcraft...

I'm sorry, I outright have no sympathy for you if you seriously would've killed yourself over that.

So the way it's delivered is the only thing that matters and that if it's not in person it doesn't matter?
I made this just for you.


I am just laughing my ass off at that pic.

You CAN turn it off. You CAN take a break from the game.

Yes it's physically possible. But it was not an option.

Just turning off the game and disappearing for a week was not an option because it would be basically giving up on the game period. I was part of a raid clearing guild. If I just disappeared for a week my guild would replace me so they could clear the content, even if I told them my reasons why. And then I would be out and I would have to sit on a waitlist waiting for someone else to step out so I could get back in or find a new guild to raid with.

And not seeing their hurtful messages wasn't even the problem. I had already ignored all of the offending parties already. I wasn't seeing their messages. But still they continued to tarnish my reputation and hold me back in whatever ways they could, even if it meant bumping my trade spam out of trade chat so I wouldn't get any clients.


Why couldn't you just give up on the game all together?

If you don't enjoy it, just give it up. Hey it's what I just did with halo 4..

And if you can't give it up, you are addicted.

I'm sorry but I just can't fathom how someone could even consider killing themselves over a video game.

People need to man the -blam!- up and deal with their problems. Suicide is not an answer. You're getting bullied? Bully the Bullies. That simple.

That is mean. Noone deserves to be bullied, even the people who are bullies themselves.


I agree that nobody deserves to be bullied but it just gets to such an unnecessary point that action must be taken, in my case at least.
I was bullied in High School, tried talking to my parents about it and they contacted the school. They only gave him a 3 day suspension and he was right back at it. I took matters into my own hands and actually fought the kid, I got a week suspension but he never messed with me again.

Because I enjoyed my time with my guild mates. I enjoyed playing the game.

It wasn't over a video game.

It was over harassment in a video game.

Seriously though, you ever notice it's only news when it's a "pretty" white girl who is upper middle class or higher?


No one? Okay :(

Back in my day you weren't being bullied if you didn't get fresh bruises every time you ran into these people. You kids are soft serve these days.

"oh he called me a name, I'm so tormented and a victim of bullying"

Hate this younger generation.

Being called a name? You think that's what bullying is these days? These kids are killing themselves because they're getting a warped perception of the world from these cruel people that torment them day after day in an environment that they often can't escape. In some cases they don't have anyone that will listen to them or help guide them. They feel despondent because every day of their life is hell.

When you're that young those things will affect the way you think. These kids don't think their lives will get better, they think people are just cruel and that this world isn't worth living in.

Can't say the same for the girl in the OP.

This thread is what is actually killing my faith in humanity.

It's okay. A lot of people misread things and miss the point.

Hey, that is grossly inaccurate!

I only dream about killing certain people, and while that knife may be a couple inches longer than your dick, it's still too small.

Oh, come ON.

Looking at the apathetic or cynical comments to any one suicide, I'm not surprised suicide rates are rising. People nowadays are -blam!- douches.


Should we change the name in that pic from Matthew to Maverick?

You must have missed my point. I'm saying that these kids aren't being "soft" because they can't help the way they feel, and that bullying isn't as trivial as you made it sound. Your post made you sound... too cold.

Sometimes I am tempted to quit gaming. I can no longer play without seeing ponyphags, horrendously bad teammates and mexicans.

Gaming community, I want you to know that you suck.

How? Honestly, for a 12 year old, she is effin' gorgeous. Why would she care? I don't even see how all of these people think that suicide is the only way out.

Im getting sick of these storys, some people need to harden up. Its just stupid, the girl who commited suicide over the ask.com site?? Just turn the -blam!- thing off, get off the site geez. Get called a name they go and cut their rist or kill themselves. If I get called anything at school, (which I do) I just laugh and give a good -blam!- you back or some remark and we both laugh and just go on with the day. We all give -blam!- to each other in my school but we all just get on with the day. I don't know if that is just an Australian thing, come to think of it we give a hell of a lot of -blam!- to each other.

I know my ways. So just stay back.

And people still act like douche bags.
