NOBODY should have to cope with cyberbullying. The "so-and-so should learn to cope with it" attitude sends a terrible message and enables the bullies, which can have awful psychological consequences for those who are bullied. How do you know the other skaters you mentioned coped well with it in the first place? It's not anything they would be likely to tell the media.
If they don't cope with it, what are they gonna do? cry? you're missing a big picture here. There is, and always will be cyber-bullies. It's your loss if you can't deal with it.
