There was this forum I once belonged to and the way things were done there was not comfortable to me ,which made me to voice out my opinion but other users saw me as a pretender and a bad person ,so I have to live.

This has happened to me a couple of times and on one occasion I didn't go back because I felt I was being bullied. The second time was just an argument with a fellow forum member (all good now) so I took a break and then went back. However I felt very uncomfortable almost as bad as if had happened in the real world. Has this happened to you? How did you deal with it?

I was also been bully in a forum like that I don't know if I should mention the name but is all good I guess I can mention the name in here tho,the name of the site is forumcoin because of that I don't go back to that site anymore.

I don't remember how many forums I left due to that feeling of being uncomfortable with the members or mods or even admin. In the first forum that I joined I was hit by some mods that was clearly caused by jealousy. I was the most popular member in that forum and it was proven in our first "eyeball" meeting. In such a case I would leave the forum.

Personally i have not felt this but i have seen it happen to others are there times i might drop a comment and the next person replies me and clearly does not agree with my idea, once i see how they reply back i sometimes ignore. Because if i actually fo reply back, its going to be something else. Really sorry for that feeling though

 

[Salimo]

Yes many times I feel bored , I refrain from posting from some time then I return cause nothing to do better than learning from forums but we cannot get rich here though .

No, never on a forum.
But in person, yes. Many, many times. A person will approach you out of nowhere with some oddball question and you’re like whoahhh Where did you come from 👀
I don’t know what to say 👀
How do I get away from you 👀
You’re invading my personal space
👀👀👀

😂 But on a forum, no way. You have plenty of time to think of a response to anything uncomfortable. Or you can just ignore

Yeah, it use to happen in some forums, where someone will be bullied because of a small argument, it could be from the owner or members of the forum. I have had such experience before in a whatsapp group I once joined. It was from a member of the group. I just quietly left the group.

I have been only on three forums so far (one of them has already been shut). I do not spend a lot of time on forum and I do not create a lot of posts, therefore, I have never been on this sitution.

I have not participated on a lot of forums. I am on just two forums, this one and Bizdustry. Forum posting is my recently discovered earning opportunity. So far, I have not been made to feel uncomfortable in the forums I participate.

I think the only time that I have been made to feel so uncomfortable on a forum was only 4 of known as get money for him and that was when the administrator of that firm actually give me warning on the forum and then and then I became so uncomfortable posting and commenting on that website.

There are toxic people everywhere and if you give room, you will likely be subjected to their toxicity. The best thing is to avoid such and enjoy the forum.

 

[Chibson]

If you cannot bear the act of being bullied and if you cannot tolerate toxic people it is better you do not venture into some internet forums because there are a lot of rude people there.

Not on any forum, but I was once bullied on Hubpages. There were members who started a thread on hubpages forum just to call me names. I don't know if the thread is still there.

Interesting you should say that as I had a problem there too. It was about a discussion on Bubblews started by a guy called Thomas Swann. I happened to mention that I had been paid and all hell let loose. They insisted I was in league with Arvind and Jason who were the owners and called me a shill (I didn't even know what that was). I left after that and never went back.

 

[Trexxxy]

Well since I have been on this forum I haven't experienced such. I think the highest is probably going back and forth about a particular topic, not getting to an argument point though.

I understand what you are saying because I have experienced something like that on a platform, I felt bad initially but I made up my mind that I will not let someone who doesn't know me and who I do not know have control over me.

I was on a forum some months ago where I had to argue with a guy that ranted nonsense then. I was so frustrated. But there's little or nothing I could do

Thankfully, a lot of friends came to rescue me and I continued on hubpages. I am still on hubpages and receive payment every month. It is interesting that some people made a lot of money on Bubblews and some didn't.

 

[Justin]

Thankfully, I have not been bullied online. However, I have been bullied offline many times. When you are a victim of bullying it is very difficult to remain sane.

I have once been made uncomfortable on this forum when my earning was removed due to the admins perception that I broke rules. However, it was later understood that it wasn't a deliberate act so, my earnings where restored. Thanks to Alexander

I had at some point and even presently from time to time faced such bullying from persons in a forum. I have over the years developed a thick skin over such and have learned to not burn my energy over discussing on the subject with such persons
