I think it is easy to say that it is the internet, you can switch off, so how can that be bullying - but it isn't as simple as that!
I consider myself a pretty strong person - but when I was new on here - I had several encounters with groups of people having a dig at me - and I know that, at times, that made me feel uncomfortable - and I know it has made other members feel like that - so for a pretty sensitive 13 year old girl - I can see how she might have found that upsetting! Maybe those who can't understand that - haven't been in that situation!
