Anti-Bully Team
What is bullying?
Have you ever been bullied at school just because you were the new kid, or you were weak in defending yourself, either physically or verbally? Ever had to skip lunch because they took your money, or ever had to suffer through physical injuries because of them?
About bullying and how you would feel
This team is to spread Anti-Bully awareness. Everybody should be treated with respect, and they shouldn't be bullied just because they're different in some way, or they're a weak target. I recently got bullied just because I liked a band that everybody else underestimated before, or hated. I know how it feels like. Some bullies are not direct like they are sarcastic to you in front of the whole class, which probably hurts more than a physical injury.
About the team
I know this team might not be popular, but I'm sure many people can relate to being bullied, either verbally or physically. If our team grows, more people would get the message and less bullying would occur out there in the world. This is totally your choice if you want to join our team and spread awareness. We won't force you to join. Remember: What goes around comes around.
Reason why I created this team
Why I decided to create this team: First, I saw many acts of bullying in my life, and ever since I've always wanted to stop it. The last straw was when I myself got bullied just because of one of my opinions. I got shunted out because of it. I had to endure their insults at the band, just because they liked another band. That was partly the reason why I decided to change schools, where I would get treated better. Think about how the bullied kid would feel. He'd feel hurt and humiliated. What if you got bullied some day and felt his pain too? You would feel guilty, and nobody likes feeling guilty.
Stand up to bullies and don't be afraid to report!
I noticed a lot of bullied kids were afraid to stand up to the bullies or tell the teacher about it. Don't be afraid to report the bullies to someone. If you want the bullying to stop, the best way is to tell an adult and make sure the bullies learn their lesson. If you keep it to yourself that you are getting bullied, the bullies will realize that you are scared to report and they will bully you even more.

Note: If you get bullied, don't avenge yourself by getting back at them like pranking them just like they did to you. If you didn't do that, the bullies were the ones who were wrong. If you did it, both you and the bullies are in the wrong, and you might both get punished. We don't hate bullies, we're just here to spread awareness and CHANGE the act of bullies so they aren't bullies anymore.
Forums that we have right now:
Our Points System - Motivation in this team
Where you can share your experiences of being bullied
What we will do in this team
We could create chess tournaments, but only once we have enough members for one - maybe until we've got 50?
We could also create forums... but someone must give us ideas and the forums must be related to anti-bullying.
We will also spread awareness about anti-bullying in the team.
