Cry bullies are the worst they constantly nip at you and then when you finally have enough and blow up youre the bad guy!
Yes, that's exactly what I had to put up with, although they loved twisting things and saying I was the one playing the victim.
Usually online cry bullies exhibit the following behaviours:-
1. Are usually the admin's favourite so have nothing to fear, knowing they'll always be backed up and protected
2. Become easily offended due to frequent misinterpretation, often the misinterpretation is done deliberately if they're in an entitled group like a favourite of the admin (see number 1)
3. Target those who wear their heart on their sleeves (which isn't the same as becoming offended by everything) and very subtly egg them on so that they react and then the bullies can accuse them of being bad people
4. Use their victimhood as an excuse for their biased behaviour
5. Can't accept general opinions or beliefs different to their own and often use name-calling as a weapon to get their way, or the old "I'm offended!" chestnut
6. Often linger on forums or social media in a gang, cliquing up with each other and invading threads that a victim of their's may have created and just deliberately disagree (in an intimidating way) with everything that person has written
7. Often twists people's words and commonly uses the kafkatrap whenever someone calls them out on it
8. Sometimes posts cryptic sarcasm if they're jealous of someone or don't like them. Their posts can look genuine but if you really read between the lines you'll see that they're mocking
9. Often lie, tell cock and bull stories, but are good at convincing everyone, just to get attention
10. Post sensitive information often in the hope that someone will get confused and comment, just so they can fly up and pull the "I'm offended!" card. It gives them a sense of entitlement and an excuse to be a "victim"
11. Can be dominant and take over the site with all their convincing stories and posts
12. Make out they're wonderful people who care about everyone and never lie or make fun of anyone or trigger anyone
13. Never listen when their victims are trying to apologise or make peace with them, they just carry on shaming them and acting hostile, yet expecting their victims to move on
14. Like to lecture and criticise their victims, often break site rules yet worship them at the same time
15. Continuously try to "get their victims back" for one mistake their victims might have made like 2 years ago (see number 13)
16. Often display a snootiness about them that can feel intimidating or even annoying to some
17. If you're the type of person who genuinely cares about people, you find it hard to care about them and their victimhood, because most of the time they are making themselves victims in their lives and then using the "stop victim-blaming me!" as a means of protection
Of course it's normal to show a couple of these traits when posting on forums, as nobody is perfect. But cry bullies on the internet show at least 12 of these behaviours.
