I don't doubt that. It's a pity their IM posts on IM threads must be accompanied by cyberbullying posts on pewep threads:





..............


etc etc etc

There are other members who do this as well, so I'm not singling those 2 out only, but cited them as examples of what's going on. These types of posts are very sinister. I'm no saint by any stretch of the imagination but the fact that the same usual suspects constantly attack pewep on almost every thread he opens, is what is making it a problem. Now if they will do what you have just declared you are going to do... that would help a lot.

pewep, I think you're really brave. You keep coming back knowing the barrage you're going to get. I don't know if you do it to test your emotional skills or what, but I often wonder how your own abusers would psychologically handle being circle-jerked on by the other members, I'm guessing not nearly as well as you. You did a very magnanimous thing by apologising for your reactions, their apologies for insulting you are still in the post I guess.

But if a truce is really being called as per Apricot's request, maybe we can now all move on.

Netmoney1 and TonyD are probably sick to death of all the shit posts people seem to be posting lately.

Please do not think for a second that they do not add value to the forum.

You made any money yet though?

There is the back button. Hell, the OP's name shows on the thread title before you even click the thread, complete with preview. So one can avoid the thread altogether and leave the people who do want to talk about his magic tricks, or whatever else, to do so.

With all due respect, you create a lot of hokey Lounge threads too but that's cool, I don't answer you with abuse because I'm not simply bothered by it, I hit the back button, it almost sounds too obvious to say! The forum is big.

That last sentence reminded me of a thread I wanted to post about BHW etiquette in the Lounge. In this case, the first 5 posts usually set the tone for the rest of the thread, especially if high-post count or respected members are posting. This means that if 1 respected member replies with a snarky comment, new members will also gang up on the OP by regurgitating variations of the snarky post by the respected member in order to fit in (you know, like playground bullying). I'll probably post that thread in the lounge later.

Anyway, about this thread, I understand why some members feel the need to shoo Pewep away, and most of them have stated several different reasons.

• Tony_d (?) once said that his posts could be a negative influence on younger members.
• BreaknBrix thinks he needs mental health care and that we shouldn't encourage him to post here.
• W130SN says that there are other forums Pewep could post on about this/

I personally don't have an issue with Pewep's posts myself as they're more entertaining than the "How Do I SEO" and "How Do I Girlfriend" threads that keep cropping up here, but I can see why some members don't approve of his threads.

Great appraisal there, so true not just in BHW, but in life too.

As for the rest, I don't know peweps mental state, it's certainly not as obvious as myspaceisstillcool's mental health was, who was clearly unwell and said so himself - yet still got cyberbullied by many of the same people on here. I'm not seeing good ways of speaking to people who are supposedly mentally ill.

Then there was the notorious 'cumshot pic' of pewep which got removed because I reported it, despite getting a stack of likes from the usual mob. I don't find that a genuous way to respond to allegedly mentally ill people, which is why I doubt their sincerity on that one.

On a completely unrelated note, I'm NOT a regular here anymore but I do like your serene posts, I have images of you looking like Jean-Luc Picard, typing words of calmness to all who'll listen.

I don't want you to think I am ignoring you or not replying to you.

I just can't be bothered to read all that text.

It's the Lounge. I think Peweps posts are entertaining. If you don't like them, simply move on. If they don't like his posts so much, why keep coming back on them and talking shit. I see plenty of shit threads from supposedly 'respected members', but i choose to just close the thread and move on. Someone mentioned earlier that maybe Pewep should post on a more Magic themed forum. So this should mean that the threads related to Football and useless threads like 'Im going to stop jacking off for 30 days' should be posted to Football and Sex forums instead then if thats the case. The Lounge is for any topic. Open your mind.

Pewep stop f***ing around and go rank some websites or something....

Cyberbullying???? Fuck me what has this place come to? Is this the fucking playground or something

What's funny is Pewep is the one who created those celibacy threads.

http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...utty-consequences-if-youre-not-careful-2.html

The reason that people here are telling Pewep to post in a magick thread is because his magick posts here are frequent. If I started posting about my Mercedes every couple of weeks on Black Hat World, the members here would tell me to go join a Mercedes forum, where people would be more interested in reading my threads and giving me helpful tips.

I had a really long response about the difference between snark and cyber bullying but then I thought "Who the fuck cares?" and went and made myself a sandwich. It's really good but I need mustard. Can anyone loan me some? Thanks.

Cyber bullying is easy to deal with. If you ever get the feeling you are the victim of cyber bullying, ask your mummy to put a password on her laptop till you turn 13.

But people have a choice. If you don't like Peweps posts, as soon as you see his name as the thread starter, simply don't open the thread??

I don't think I'd classify this case as cyber bullying. No matter how much pewep is insulted, he just keeps right on going. So obviously these comments don't really bother him.

If they were actually abusive, i.e. "Why don't you go do humanity a favor and go drown yourself?" or "I've got a tutorial on suicide you should follow," I could see someone getting upset. But I don't see any of that. I don't even think he's actually bothered by whatever anyone says or thinks about him. Otherwise he wouldn't keep coming back here and posting this stuff.

So if it doesn't really bother him then why should it bother me?

http://nobullying.com/adult-cyber-bullying/

Let's take a few of the points on that page:

http://nobullying.com/different-forms-of-cyber-bullying-explained/

• Harassment: repeatedly sending offensive, rude, and insulting messages.
More instances than I care to quote here, but I've quoted a few in the previous page. I believe he's asked members MANY times to simply use the back button instead of replying with hate.

• Denigration: posting derogatory information about someone, and/or digitally altered photos.
The 'cumshot pic' of pewep

• http://nobullying.com/what-is-flaming/: fighting online, often using vulgar language.
As usual

• Impersonation: hacking another's email or social media to post embarrassing material.
This hasn't happened AFAIK

http://nobullying.com/laurie-a-gray-on-the-cyber-bully/

A number of characteristics define cyber bullying:

• Anonymity: These bullies often cruise the Internet under pseudonyms, and the victim often does not know who is doing the bullying.
Well that goes for everyone except BreaknBrix, I think.

• Bystanders: http://nobullying.com/how-the-bystander-effect-could-promote-bullying/ in the cyber world can be numerous, as the information can be sent via email, cell phones, social media, and other means of technology.
Not just bystanders but joiners as well. Click the link for more on that.

• Disinhibition: The anonymity of the Internet can encourage an individual to commit acts they might not otherwise attempt in person. It affords "false courage" when the bully thinks he can't be identified.
It totally does. Would any of you shove that doctored cumshot pic in pewep's face for the rest of you to laugh at? I bet you'd all suddenly get very polite to him if he attended ungagged...


http://nobullying.com/define-internet-troll/
A new study seeks to classify the personalities of those who engage in trolling and to dissect this predatory behavior. The report by https://www.google.com.eg/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCIQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.academia.edu%2F5975837%2FOnline_Trolls_Sadists_of_the_Internet&ei=hcpLVbyEJ8GsU-DegFA&usg=AFQjCNEurcMFTrAjLc8ok5cvw-MIC9ReCw&bvm=bv.92765956,d.cWc investigated the behavior patterns of people who enjoyed online trolling and investigated whether they possessed personality traits exhibiting manipulation and deceit, narcissism, an absence of remorse, and/or a willingness to inflict pain on others.

This type of behavior has disturbing implications. The individual who gets pleasure from "hunting" fellow humans for this sort of degrading "sport" shows serious signs of predatory and destructive tendencies. In fact, the practice of trolling has become so blatant that several websites have taken action to prevent it. https://www.google.com.eg/url?sa=t&rct=j&q=&esrc=s&source=web&cd=2&cad=rja&uact=8&ved=0CCMQFjAB&url=http%3A%2F%2Fwww.newagefraud.org%2Fsmf%2Findex.php%3Ftopic%3D1234.35%3Bwap2&ei=vspLVZHkBYHzUtrCgbAL&usg=AFQjCNEmzsmvdawR5T9TGlK6lB9EQw0Zvg&bvm=bv.92765956,d.cWc (Mooney)

End of page selections.

It's clear pewep doesn't enjoy the insults and degrading comments, and has directly asked members to stop. So simply stop doing it. It's not hard.

Pewep, I'm gonna start meditating soon, can you suggest me on where I should get started? I already know all about the chakras and all, but I'd like some pointers if possible.

Thanks!

I'm pretty busy and the last time I tried to offer OP some real advice it was brushed off but he recently made a post about how he was depressed and alone, his energy is very much out of balance and I fear the same may happen to you if you follow his advice. You can actually cause some damage if you do not go about techniques the proper way:

http://www.blackhatworld.com/blackh...powers-make-me-feel-depressed-alone-2.html#62

Most of these systems were used with other techniques on a path to enlightenment. Pewep attempts to use them to obtain fortunes, love and to become powerful with psychic abilities... quite the opposite of what these systems were developed for.

First you need to realize that although similar there are a few different systems the OP commonly refers to (chakras vs dantiens - chi vs prana -meridians vs nadis). If you practice both systems do them at least hours apart, which may be hard depending on your daily schedule, when you eat, ect. Some good beginning ideas to research (reddit is REALLY hit or miss):

Taoist Yoga- https://goo.gl/3sq9W3
Mantak Chia
Microcosmic Orbit
Triangular breathing
qigong/chi kung- Spring Forest (a little more medical) 8 brocades (good beginner) Flying Phoenix
taobums

Pranayama- Kapalabhati (technically not a pranayama but good starting)
Anuloma Viloma
Murrcha
Ujjayi
Kumbhaka
Bhramari
Bhastrika
Surya/Chandra Bheda
Kundalini Awakening

Theravada Buddhism
Vipassana
Samatha
mindfullness meditation
Jhanas
Kasinas
dharma overground

Start with the basics and over time you will learn what works best for you. Also once your body/mind/namarupa is ready you can move on to other techniques. When you get there feel free to drop me a PM.

Sorry Whatrat, I am in my 30s, I really could not care less. Call me a cunt, call me what you like on the internet, it has absolutely no impact on my life in the slightest. And if you are incapable of coping with the words of some random stranger, then you certainly have bigger issues to deal with than "cyber bullying".

you'd think by now i'd know better than to click these links...

I doubt you own a merc - sorry but I need proof.

Whatrat is the same guy that defended charles floate when he got charged with (and admitted guilt to) possessing indecent images of children.

Me neither but I'm not sure why you told me your age and mental strength because you're not the one being targeted on this forum or asking members to stop the personal attacks, pewep is. As it happens I don't think he's completely devastated either (I hope), but he has lost his temper with them in the past and has asked such members to stop and leave his threads alone, and request they ignore and choose to continue. It would be decent to respect his quite reasonable request to stop personally attacking him, since he shockingly enough doesn't like it, it's really not asking very much...
