Bullying is taking someone's lunch money. Stopping them from playing on the monkey bars. Threatening to beat them up if they don't do what you tell them to. Saying things they don't want to hear, especially in response to them swearing at you, is not bullying. Is "bullying" (especially with the prefix "cyber-", which seems to make everything scarier) going to be the next word doomed to be expanded into vagueness and uselessness?
Any adult who can't handle people criticizing their writing ability has no business claiming to be a writer, and I think the jury is still out whether they should even claim to be an adult.
