I actually think this is way too far, You get you-tubers such as Minnesota-burns who does this thing but to a certain extent on YouTube but I find that is more humorous/Fooling around trolling which Imo is okay at certain levels, But this is sick and it's not the first I've seen on ask fm, the following are real quotes from an ask.fm wall

I don't see why kids take things that far. Its not the person trollings fault that the other kid is so sensitive.

For everyone saying this limits free speech, there's a margin. You would receive major trouble for saying these things to someone's face in public. Although I understand the internet brings it's own anonymity, that doesn't allow for the ability to say anything, especially on another's own page.

As stated above, this is just bullying. There is nothing clever about telling someone to "kill themself." The biggest issue is that people need to comprehend that there is a person behind the computer, and in this situation looking for help.

i used to troll back in 08 when i first got ps3. now adays it is mainstream and i make people look stupid cause now adays people used to be funny when they troll. now that act dumb and i also stopped trolling in 2010 when i made someone go to therapy cause i fucked with him so much. but now everyone wants to troll on games that have no point in trolling in. for example i was on uno a month ago and people were trolling. even on nascar people are trolling. that is stupid.

In many ways trolling shares a couple common things with bullying. The problem is this not a new problem but taken on a new shape. Due to being anon when you're online.
It's sort of become accepted is a danger in allowing this behavior.

Do we need to tight controls no, we do need education along with reporting systems in place. Don't blame just one site I think that a little silly that like blaming the internet for people looking up information over reading a book.

Time to appreciated we are living in a new age as a result we need new ways of coping/dealing with things. And have to teach the kids about the changes.
