The symbol was originally used as an expression of relations between members. But gradually the use of the symbol is no longer controlled and by the communities, categorized spam is even regarded as a language that leads to cyberbullying. Cyberbullying victims usually struggle themselves to prevent and fight off any form of unwanted messages.
