London, UK (PRWEB) September 09, 2013 -- NoBullying.com examines, in an article released today, why people are being bullied on Twitter every day.
The article looks at the recent popular cases of group bullying on Twitter, once of the most popular social networking platforms in the world.
The new cyber bullying wave also is escalating with racism, bomb threats, sexual threats and violent behaviours taking over social media platforms.
The articles notes that while Twitter has a published anti abuse policy and systems in place, it doesn't seem to be really working to prevent Cyber Bullying and abuse.
Twitter recently announced that each user can now report individual “tweets” but again, according to several experts, that doesn't seem to be the most effective method to protect users from bullying and abuse.
The truth remains, that a lot of bullies, do create fake accounts especially for bullying and abuse, even with people they don’t know personally or don’t really care for. There are several cases of celebrities being bullied on Twitter because of appearances or personal choices. Adele’s baby has been bullied on twitter because of his mother’s weight; it is in fact this terrible for some people.
Macartan Mulligan, Co-Founder of Treze, said “It is about time social media websites step up and face online bullying head on, this evil wave of unkindness has to be stopped. Everyone should join the movement against bullying.”
He added that parents and teachers should make a point to educate the younger generations about the sad outcome of bullying online and off line.
NoBullying.com features many pages dedicated to parents, teens, teachers, health professionals as well as posts related to cyber safety and the latest news about law making concerning curbing Bullying worldwide as well as inspirational Bullying Poems and Bullying Quotes.
The website makes a habit of updating its bullying statistics and cyber bullying statistics regularly because it is essential to understand how widespread the bullying epidemic is.
He also added that anyone suffering from bullying in any form or way can always reach out to the team of NoBullying and they will be given advice on how to stand up to bullying or protect themselves online.
The founders of the website hope that viewers can truly learn about bullying definition as well as school bullying and workplace bullying and put a serious effort to making it stop by education and caution and not by violence.
