Russell wasn't a non-malicious bully. He got in people's faces and he made physical threats.

I don't think there can be such a thing as "non-malicious bullying." There's leading, there's dominating an argument, but those would never be mistaken for bullying. Russell enjoyed using intimidation as a tactic. How is that not bullying?

xx * I have only one response. You can only be bullied if you allow yourself to be bullied. Especially in BB, because there is no physical threat. NT

xx * Bullying is not always physical threat, it's mental and emotional as well. I don't think anyone is being bullied in any way this year. NT

xx * The rules to being a good person in society do not apply to BB. It is a game designed to encourage the exploitation and manipulation of other HGs. NT

xx * malicious is the intent to do harm to another. If the intent is to throw someone off their game, and not to do harm, then it's not malicious.
