Let's End Cyberbullying

Over my years in the Lego community, I have been the victim of multiple cyberbully attacks, often by the same people. I am often seen as an easy muse, an easy target, and someone who can be harassed, mocked, and more.

 

I am making this post to help shine light on this issue. This is not just something that happens to me. This happens to people in a multitude of different communities, even outside of Lego. These may seem like harmless pranks, but they carry with them severe ramifications for the victim's mental health. Because of these kinds of pranks, I have trust issues with those I used to value in this community. Cyberbullying can also lead to things like depression and other, darker things.

 

All I'm asking for is for you guys to spread the word, and help me help you and others from getting harassed online and used for the butt of people's jokes. I don't know if this will make a dramatic impact on the community, but it will be a step in the right direction.

 

Thank you
