Best Answer

WikiAnswers uses a rather broad definition of cyberbullying. While technically it is targeting an individual with insults, or bringing offline bullying to the computer, the definition used by this site includes targeting groups. So that includes racism, homophobia, sexism, transphobia, hurtful comments about interracial relationships, etc. Even certain types of political speech can be seen as crossing the line.

Since the original asker is an anonymous contributor and the new layout does not display the history of anonymous contributors, we can only speculate at best what they did. It is even possible that they were misunderstood in some way. For instance, many people engage in bantering, roasting and "yo' mama" jokes, and to the wrong person, it may appear to be bullying behavior. Or they might have used some name-calling. Or they could have said that a group of people were nasty, immoral, disgusting, or not as good as they were. Most of us may never know, but we should all avoid insults, attacks on groups, name-calling, and hurtful comments.
