Is it just them being who they normally are, or do they only do it because they can't bully any real person where they live? I don't know how some people here could take the stuff others have said to them. It makes me want to wrap them up in a blanket and bushwhack the person who put them down. Everyone will never be on the same level. So stop acting superior just because you're a little ahead, otherwise, you're the one who's got growing up to do.

A. Because they can.
B. Because they really are.

I wouldn't worry about it too much; Just ignore what they say if you find it offensive.

Some people are assholes online because it's like a free pass to vent any anger or immaturity, with hardly any consequences. Go ahead and insult someone on cB; the most that will happen to you is you'll get an IP ban. The consequences are minute, the 'reward' great. Some people with a little less moral fibre will succumb to the temptation, but I know that most people on cB are a little nicer than that.

It is fun to bully the noob once in a while, though, I must admit.

We're not assholes; we're just opinionated.
