What's with the Rudeness?

So recently, I have been noticing a real lack of respect and a couple cases of what could easily be classified as cyberbullying. One of the most easily recognizable is that case of @Sylvie. For someone who does so much for our robotic community, he gets a lot of hate from people. I would just like to know why people do this and what reasons they have for doing it. If this thread gets out of hand, I will immediately have @DRow lock it. Please no arguments. I just noticed a corruption of the community and thought it would be important to bring this to people’s attention.

Don’t start this again. Just don’t. It never goes well whenever it’s brought up. There is no winning against the trolls. I’ve just learned to accept it, and I don’t care.

@DRow Please lock this immediately

An almost-identical thread has already run its course:

I don’t think there is much point to reviving the topic again.

I feel like if you wanted to make a PSA you could’ve done it where the bullying was going on.
