What is online banter?
Banter is a term that describes the jovial teasing or talk amongst friends. It is often used to help establish a sense of belonging, understood only by the group or between a select few.
Used this way it can be enjoyed and provide a source of good-natured fun or entertainment.
However, when banter comes into contact with the outside world, including online, without the benefit of facial expressions, body language, tone of voice and context, things can easily be misinterpreted.
There is a risk that bullying behaviour can be excused as ‘banter’ and statements often said in jest can sound hostile, derogatory, or racist.

Online streaming is a seamless way of watching or listening to all sorts of content such as TV shows, films, sports highlights, and music, over an internet connection, without having to download a file or store it on your device.
Social media is the term we give to websites and apps that allow us to connect with each other and share photos and comments. Today, social media sites such as Facebook and Instagram are used by billions of people every single day.
