There is no specific percentage available as suicide is a complex issue with multiple factors involved. Cyberbullying can be a contributing factor to suicide in some cases, but it is not the sole cause. It is important to address mental health issues and offer support to individuals who may be experiencing cyberbullying.
The only thing cyber bullying is good for is to feed people's egos. People love to feel superior to other people. As a result, they pick and bother the ones they feel are undesirable or inferior. Cyber bullying leads victims to severe depression and even death. Therefore, there really is nothing positive that comes out of these cowardly online acts.

Take Wiki Answers for instance, how about your question for a start? I may answer your question by just saying "What a stupid question, cant you do better than that? You must be an idiot." That is cyber bullying, forcing you to ask yourself am I an idiot. Should my question be phrased differently? This sort of bullying is done because of ignorance on the part of the bully. This sort of bullying can be answered with a kind reply, such as "I am sorry the question offends you, I will re type it or try to do better next time". Your reply knocks all of the steam out of the bully, for they were expecting some sort of insulting reply. You have to show them that their words had no affect upon you, after all it was your question and not what they would have had you ask.Have sympathy for their ignorance and go on asking your questions as you have always done. With respect.
