Over the recent weeks the banter in this place hasnt been very good what with some chatters airing all there business and me myself getting myself mixed up with people who arent entirely good when does it become trolling or is it just playful banter when the name calling becomes malicious. At what level do people think its appropriate to pass peoples pictures on.

I think we all know when banter becomes abuse.
Banter can get close to the line, but that’s what makes it interesting, keeps people on their toes.
It goes over to abuse when photos are used without consent. The same goes with the verbal abuse that goes way over the top, in terms of obscenities aimed at someone, or lies trying to smear someone’s character, attempts to embarrass. A lot of this is inevitable, and can even be funny, but it’s a fine line. I’ve been put off befriending some people here occasionally when their interesting side becomes covered by their abusive side.
Organised attempts to stop argument by isolating someone and sending them to Coventry
I did complain to the boss once when one chatter went over the top even by his standards, but was told just to ignore it and walk away when an argument turned into abuse rather than points made. Not easy to do if you’re followed around, and if the boss is so lacksadaisical that he allows this to happen, then you can be faced with no alternative but to either get out (often the aim of the abuser) or just retaliate in kind.
So there is banter here, but deffo abuse, too.

28 February, 2019 at 1:43 pm #1113025MISTERQ..FREE OF CHARGE…..
you have what called “Clown” personality disorder..
Never stop joking till you run out of a joke. Never take things serious..as joking and banter can be positive or negative as laughter great medicine, you use it to compensate as you insecure and oh yes aggressive. Your sarcastic wit, teasing, you ridicule with inappropriate humor. Your inappropriate humor you use it in your own way to put down, express or dislike some one.
You have done well yourself trashing and laughing at others..pointing fingers… you are a bully too..
Have a nice day……
Orson says hello. Lol lol lol.

LOL RATP ROFLMQAO GHR OKR TGW PRK
Now that’s what I call banter.
Does q mean by abuse something different from what I mean?
I’ve had a go at people, yes, but I’ve not abused people in that I’ve not sent photos of people without their consent, or sought to embarrass people by issuing lies (or the truth) about their personal lives etc etc etc
His own comments on mooosey were downright obscene, so he’s not just a clown.
28 February, 2019 at 2:17 pm #1113027Lol scep..Being a psych..major in college sure paid off . It was full of banter….x
Sadly that type of abuse I discussed is considered the same as other abuse and methods or forms used by that personality similar to those of a bully. Ridicule a major word here. What bullies do…aggressive.. major word. One thing failed to mention purposely about the above was they have difficult times connecting with others. So humor draws attention as well to them.
Our jokester uses different form and or style but yes what he does is abuse to others as well.. he not innocent either…
So that psych 101 today…have great day!
