Online twitter abuse.

What are your thoughts of the online twitter abuse re Andy Murray.

[999tigger 10]

It was to be expected.

If it was that bad then dont be surprised if they track the people down and prosecute.

Twitter should make it easier to delete people.

Murray has an off button on his laptop I would gather?

I'd fight back if I were him, tell them what they really are!

You have to take it with a pinch of salt from prepubescent kids.

Alot of people don't, you don't need to notify everyone (like you do on facebook threads).

 

 

Back on topic, everyone gets abuse every day on some site or other, I think some 'famous' personalities only go on them so they can make a fuss when and feel hard done to when the 0.1% of public posts something negative about them.

I hadn't heard about it - what have the trolls been saying, though I can probably guess

Whether he does or not is irrelevant, it does not solve the problem; people will still bad mouth an individual whether or not they know about it.

It's the way a lot of people communicate, get news, keep in touch.

 

He shouldn't be excluded from using it because of idiots who abuse him.

 

That's like saying who'd have a car because car thieves exist - they are the problem, not him.

But you do this, which is in effect the same idea - a social network.

 

I bet you would be good on Twitter Mel - you have a radio show to promote, you could share what you are listening to (which is he only reason I ever check out that thread) - go on @melthebell !

We have theCrown Prosecution service to thank for a lack of proper law on this as they ridiculously went after the Donny Airport 'bomber' as their first high profile persecution.
