I decided to just up and leave that site altogether, as I didn't want to expose myself to their torment. It was a hard decision because those who bullied me, humiliated me, and stripped me of my admin powers over there, and any notion I once had them, mind you, were once people I saw as friends, and talked to via facebook on a daily basis.

Sometimes I let my mind wander to that site and ask myself if they would ever consider going back to how things were before things got dicey and they betrayed me. I sometimes even think of how I would confront them and ask them why they did it, not that I would ever actually do so. I know that they probably would just go on the way they have been, and turn a cold shoulder towards me, and probably bully me some more.

I'm not saying I was a saint all this time either, I've said and done some rather regrettable things. However, I never once turned my back on them, until they downright asked me to go away, at which point I just cut my losses and stopped all communication with them in any way.

I know I'm feeling the best I have been in a long, LONG while, and I don't want them to rain on my parade. So yeah, I'm using all my strength and willpower to prevent myself from falling into their wicked trap for a second time.
On a site where the administrators are the bullies, you use shield tactics. You have to protect yourself from them. You have to keep them contained to their blog, and not let them contaminate other forums you go to.

Thus you must block them from your Facebook pages. Block them and block them again. If they stalk you to other sites, inform the administrators of the new site that so and so are stalking you. Provide links to their threats. Set you Facebook to friends only.

If you feel you need to stay on the old bad site, then fight them until they ban you. Just know all the name calling and bad things they say about you, are Not You. They do not know you.
