The title explains it all. it could have been a moment you had while playing an online game or maybe you were on a community forum.
It happened to me while I was playing an online game called Team Fortress 2 about ten minutes ago. I was in a game of attack and defend and there was this guy (who's name I don't remember because I was upset) Who was verbally attacking our team for playing poorly .
After a minute or two I spoke up in hopes of making him stop but he then turned on me. He noticed that I'm a Brony and started harassing me pretty intensely. I tried to defend myself but I stopped after a few sentences because I wanted to set a good example for our fandom.
He called me things like faggot, Brony degenerate, he even started making fun of how my parents made me move out. I can't even tell you how many times he told me I'm going to hell.
Well here's the good part. After a few horrible statements he made toward me this random guy who was playing on our team spoke up out of nowhere and started defending me. I'll never forget that moment. A total stranger standing up for me....honestly, I didn't think that would ever happen.
Afterwards, I switched teams and made the bully rage quit.
Today's world may be rotting but after that one stranger stood up for me, I now know that goodness is still out there, it's just hard to find.
So, has anyone had a moment where a total stranger stood up for you while you were being bullied online? I'd love to hear your stories.
