Most of the time, I find the abuse pretty amusing - it's mainly light hearted and fun - even when it sounds serious. However, there are a handful on here who contribute nothing other than abuse. Its nothing more than tedious and you learn to flick past their contributions. They follow one another around into threads, and once one or two start, there's a pack action. There are a couple who follow them around, never starting it but looking all brave joining in from the back too.
I think they see it as banter and light hearted fun, rather than anything malicious. At least I hope they do, because it's really laughably embarrassing if they're seriously trying to bully somebody through a computer screen!
