Does Bullying help build character?

Post by cronus » Tue Dec 10, 2013 10:35 am

We've all been there. Seems the people who get anywhere in life always carry that legacy of bullying. Does it build character? First reply here is by the threads loser. :tup:

I was a bully and I lack character. Oh, you mean 'Does being bullied help build character?'...

I think it might contribute to building a high level elf mage, or possibly an orc warrior.

I remember my head being forced into a sewer grate with boot on my neck and being kicked in the kidneys while being called a cock sucking faggot.

Ah nostalgia...

Just a serious, but not totally relevant comment.

Did you know that psychologists researching the character of bullies, who expected to find poor self esteem, found the opposite. Your typical bully has too much self esteem. Those who claim bullies need to be taken down a peg or two were absolutely correct!
