15. No, it wasn't dramatic hyperbole.

Violet - I am not saying that iverglas acts like a bully because she disagrees with me. She acts like a bully to anyone who disagrees with her, including Neoma.

iverglas also took unilateral action against Neoma, but no one seems to know that because it was done on the off-site group host. She was banned from that off-site host group because she disagreed with iverglas about blocking MrTrickster. It's all available in Google.

You are free to define bullying in any way you want to. There's an actual definition and I think I've been more than nice to everyone about this... except for iverglas. She deserved to be blocked. That's my opinion and you don't have to agree with it.

I can certainly try, but the first time iverglas attacks me, I'm not going to be really happy about it. What would you suggest I do in that case? Just shut up and take it? Post in the feminist forum about how she's attacking a member of the group? What remedy to I have should that happen?
