The community guidelines link to the wiki page on cyber bullying: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cyber-bullying. It is considered a Major/Severe Infraction (similar to bigotry).

ok, rather than leave it up to personal interpretation, i think it would be good for c.c. to post a detailed explanation on this topic.

i dont necesarrily think the mods need to step in and do anything, not without a detailed written explanation of what is and is not to be considered " cyber bullying" wikipedia made reference to bullying children, but i did not see any mention of it towards adults.

well yes that what i meant to cc admin should define what it is and then they should tell us the punishment for such abuses and then from there on we can move forward all of us being on the same page.

The punishment is already listed in the Community Guidelines under Major/Severe Infractions. As Night Strike pointed out, we linked to the wikipedia definition.

Then you need to learn how to read tbh.

Wikipedia wrote:The practice of cyberbullying is not limited to children ...

but would appreciate it if you could define what constitutes "cyber bullying" as i think that certain current behavior o c.c. could be misconstrued as such
