Sadly, as in life there will always be abuse, the internet allows it to happen more than face to face.
It can be minimised but not eradicated. Filters, reporting thr abuse, the block button, no reaction to any as that just fuels it, no thread announcing and giving the abuser the recognition that they have upset you.
Reporting & allowing admin to look at the messages from both sides gives them context you don't always get from a one sided thread and action can be taken. |

I've been on the receiving end of abuse many times, as _iew said report block and forget these idiots because they ain't worthy of your time  |

If the abuse isn't directed at you then how do you know the circumstances surrounding what has been said
The abuse might actually just be a couple of people having a laugh in the way they enjoy. There is no harm in that we are all adults with different personalities.
I wouldn't get involved by blocking and reporting unless it's directed at you personally.
There are too many on here that stick there nose in and report any chance they get without knowing the reason why someone has said it.

Me, yeah, I get banned all the time for abuse so frustrating! Haha!! Nah, it's really a joke between friends "banter" but people looking in on it would think "god, that's harsh"
Admin defo don't see it as that either  |

Being called fat and ugly isn't acceptable your right but if the comments aren't aimed at you then why have you posted all this? |

Maybe his mate has or a friend
Just sticking up for them ?
Think most of us have had some sort of abuse at 1 time on here
Don't think admin do much about it to be honest but just block and move on

" totally agree Auds
no one should be subjected to this kind of abuse from anyone.
If you dont get on with someone or dont like what they have to say then simply block and move on.
people who are use their status updates to do this are only proving who has the problem and that they have totally lost control of the situation in the first place so use the abuse out of frustration . |
