Yeah, but it doesn't mean your opinion is good. Saying "kys" on the internet is really stupid. I know people use it in a joking manner with friends and I do that too. But I restrain myself from saying that over public things like a Minecraft server, Twitter, Facebook, and etc. You keep saying that if you get offended by it, leave the internet. Well, its 2016 and technology is rapidly advancing. Its connecting everyone from all ages to the internet. There's literally 3 year olds learning how to use iPhones and etc. The internet is always going to be a part of our lives and you have to realize that there are younger kids on it. Also, the world has become very sensitive and people get offended easily. You could push a person into harming themselves or even killing themselves just by saying "kys" You don't know whats going on in their lives. They might be suffering abuse, depression, suicidal thoughts, etc. Maybe they're using Minecraft as an escape from their lives. Maybe they had a family member or friend commit suicide. Is it fair that they suffer through the same abuse on Minecraft through toxicity and people telling them to kill themselves? No. It's stupid how people don't know how to use their brain and simply think before you type. Would you go to a random 12 year old on the street and tell them that they should kill themselves? Fuck no. So don't do that shit on a Minecraft server. If you can't restrain yourself from saying "kys" to someone or being extremely toxic, you should probably go out and get some air.
Also, just telling everyone that they should watch what they say online because they check your social media before hiring you for a job and just ONE tweet can mean the difference between having a job or unemployment. Even if you delete something, its never gone.
Like I said, I use it with my friends. Not when I die and get pissed or something.

Don't try and justify this please.. >.> The fact that people say it's an "instinct" pisses me off, because it's not an "instinct". It's people being stupid, and toxic.

Tbh, I think saying KYS to your friends is fine as long as you know the person well and you know that they aren't in a state anywhere even near depression. As long as you are 100% they take it as a joke, then it's fine. But you should never say KYS to a random guy that you don't know, because as others said, they might be depressed and actually do it. But for those who are depressed, I recommend you just turn off Badlion chat, because this is the internet. It's naturally filled w/ people you don't know, if you can't handle their toxicity, just turn it off, because there is nothing you can do about it.Posted on 27 April 2016 - 07:02 AM

Well considering I have never told anyone to kill themselves over a video game no it's not, but for other people it clearly is.

I know this is kind of late but a friend I knew a while ago kept on making "kys" jokes to me, he had no idea I was depressed at the time. You don't know if someone is depressed or not unless you specifically ask them "are you suicidal" and even then they could lie to you that they aren't when they are. Bottom line is don't make fucking kys jokes.Posted on 03 May 2016 - 09:04 PM
Kys means keep yourself safe…..
