Cyberbullying

Using digital tools to repeatedly harass, threaten, or humiliate someone.

Cyberbullying is the use of digital communication — messages, posts, or shared content — to repeatedly harass, threaten, humiliate, or target a person.

In chat contexts it can take the form of sustained abusive messages, coordinated pile-ons, or spreading harmful content about someone. Unlike a one-off rude comment, bullying is defined by its repetition and intent to harm.

If you experience or witness cyberbullying, blocking stops contact from the individual, and reporting brings it to the moderation team. Persistent harassment is a violation of the community rules on any reputable platform.
