Also, show him this thread as evidence of how nice we are and how he doesn't have to worry and how katie has his back.

Tell him just to post neutrally, and not to post in the politics or news section (sure to get you some enemies). If he has questions in regards to school I'm sure it'll be fine. People who cyber bully are cowards anyway, well, people who bully in general. They're insecure and looking for rep from others who are just as bad as them (pack mentality on the web). If anybody says anything to him that isn't pleasant, it's best to ignore it, but I doubt he'll fall into that.

Have you shown him a link to this thread to show we are (mostly :p) nice people?

From reading this post and also checking out your profile you seem to be pressuring him into posting, I would consider calling you a cyberbully.

So to Dragonmaster262's friend, yes cyberbullying is an issue, yes there are bad things on the internet. The first step is to accept them, they will be there, bad things do happen although this is why we have mods and admins.
I'm friends with some of the mods and they are really great, nice, friendly people. Oh and they don't bite.

The great thing about the internet is you can be whoever you want to be and however you want to act, you can disclose as little or much information about yourself as you like. If you make a stupid post or something it isn't like you have to face that person again tomorrow and will people care what happened on the internet the next week? yeah probably not.

Now say you do get cyberbullied, to speak to a moderator you just have to post a thread in a private mod forum and further actions can be taken. Boredofstudies is not a free for all (the non school forum kinda is although you dont have to post there). I'm a member on many forums as well as a moderator/administrator in various communities, the boredofstudies is a good one :)

maybe you should give your account to him for him to make his first post.
and then when he finds that its not too frightening, get him to slowly make posts using his own account
