To me, OP seems like someone who's deliberately trying to become the villain because he's seen the social network movie too much and is fantasizing that he'll gain the same wealth and fame as Zuckerberg by being the villain. Except here, he started crying when the consequences of being the villain caught up to him.
OP needs to realize that we are no longer in 2005 when the Facebook was founded. Nor is he in the US. He's in India which has much different laws and culture. And case law and our understanding of the harms of cyber bullying and harassment has drastically evolved since 2005.
OP should also realize that this is at IIT in India. There's already a huge suicide problem amongst students in India due to competition. Adding cyber harassment to that isn't the best idea.
Also his general reactions and overall maturity seem very poorly developed. I might expect that response from a thirteen year old, but a university student?
Really sounds like an arrogant rich kid who has had a lifetime of getting whatever he wants.
I do get whatever i want in life. But thats not cos im a rich kid (im not), its cos i work really hard and have conviction. And i will continue getting everything i want in life for the same reason. Try it out
Egs is not a word. I assume you mean example? Or if you want to abbreviate it, use "e.g.".
> Back to the story, at 1 am, I launched the site, and just told 4 of my friends. that's it.
That's not how you're supposed to use commas. First one should probably be a period or semicolon. Second one is unnecessary. Third one is defensible, but you're connecting two independent clauses; I think it's better as two sentences. Failing that it's better without the comma.
> lmao as you can see
I wouldn't include "lmao" in any serious piece of writing attached to my professional identity.
> I told them, "no i wont",
This is missing an apostrophe and capitalization.
The list goes on, and on, and on, and on.
Stylistic concerns aside, this reads like you're telling a story to a friend. It's very 'stream of thought'. You don't give much commentary. You don't reflect on what you or others did right or wrong. You don't seem to have actually learned anything from this experience. Better writing would include reflection and show that you have put some actual thought into this incident beyond knee-jerking 'I did nothing wrong I shouldn't have been punished this isn't fair'.
I don't care about the visuals of Reddit, but copying the design of "this is a site for commenting, answers are just top-level comments with no distinction" seemed like they did not see the difference between Stack Overflow and a subreddit.
It aggregates the top articles on STEAMD topics (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, Math, and Design) from various forums and displays them in chronological order.
This includes forums like Hacker News, Tildes, Lobsters, Slashdot, Bear, and some science, tech & programming related subreddits.
