Please read the information about bullying on this page. If, after reading this information, you believe you have been a victim of bullying, you may email us and let us know.
We take this very seriously and so should you. You should be aware that false reports, pranks, or accusations made against someone just because you don't like them will be dealt with harshly. You will notice that you do not have to give your name or email address but we will not have a way to contact you if you decide not to do so.

Make your report as complete as possible and try to give us enough information to identify the person doing the bullying. If we don't know who is doing what, we can't stop it. If you know the person's name, put that in your report. You have the right to be free from bullying.
