When Will It Stop

I don't know if the faculty are aware of it yet, but there is some terrible stuff being done to some students over the internet at this school. While I can happily say I have not been the target of these people there are some students whose reputations are being smashed anonymously. I am talking about college ACB. It is an anonymous website where people can start threads about anything, which I assume intended to be for positive discussion but has turned into a gossip website where people can hide behind their computer screens and talk shit about people. It makes me kinda angry that people continue to hurt someone over and over again. This takes cyber bullying to the next level because there is no way to confront the people spreading slander about you. The only thing the victims can do is apply to have the thread deleted but the same assholes that continue to spend all their time on the website just recreate the thread and start fresh. There was a reason juicy campus went under, because the material on the site was so hurtful and negative no advertisers wanted to be associated with the site. Why is this eyesore still around?
