I was posting somewhere else about cyber bullying. The first reply I received said

''just leave there then''

How helpful? I wouldn't have been posting if I hadn't been triggered and hurt. Ouch

Also sometimes things aren't as simple as ''just leave''

It might have been more helpful if the person had attempted to listen to what I was saying rather than rushing in to make a knee jerk (at best) reply,

I am not amused when people try to bait the bear.

(not anyone here)

Hi, I have seen this too, some people are so pathetic they thrive on that anonymity of being online, and in real life don't have a voice.
I'm sorry it got to you.
Just remember, they are trapped by their own artificial world and it's probably all they have. They can't do or say anything to you in real life.
You're a bigger person.

I’m not posting about some scary nasty things that some people online have said to me.
I don’t understand how some people are so cruel.

On most accounts (Facebook) you can block trolls. I just block them.

When you block someone on youtube, will will not be able to what they posted on other videos, and they not be able to see what you posted.

The idea is...
When blocking someone on you tube etc, you will not be able to view what they post, including on other videos,.

I do not know if they won’t be able to view what you post.

You also could of blocked him on your gmail account. There are notification settings that can do that. On YouTube people I blocked, I don't see or hear, and they never appear in my notifications.

I was sad that I had to get rid of the account but I had no choice. I'm just a little more careful now with this new account. One of the trolls who had been harassing me on a YouTube video is now harassing someone else and doing what he did to me to someone else and all I can think is I'm glad it not me.

attentionThis is an old thread. You probably should not post your reply to it, as the original poster is unlikely to see it.
