I was called an "attention [profane]" because I joined a medium gaming forum, by its members. All I did was not tell my actual identity (telling your identity can be dangerous) and they bullied a 13 year old who wanted to socialize over the internet because he couldn't offline. It gave me PTSD and now I never mention my location. I was mad then and am now. But I would have been to a lesser degree if it weren't for the psychological trauma.

They called me names, sent me GIFs, mocked me, created threads over me, banned me after hacking me. Why? Because I was a mentally ill child.


But you or I don't have to hang on that. Simply ignore them and move on. There are more important tasks at your hand.
