John announced his plan to take a break from the site, writing: “I am taking some time off Twitter.
“I can take anything but when scumbags have a forum to abuse people I love I think it's time to move away.”
Just one day before announcing his Twitter hiatus, John responded to one troll, writing: ”you are a shithouse wanker who deserves no attention so you won't get any and you can rot in your own bile. You sad loser.” [sic]
At present, it appears that the user’s account has now been suspended.
John isn’t the first celebrity to quit the site after being sent abuse. Earlier this year, Robin Williams’ daughter Zelda took a break from the site, when she received a number of sickening tweets following her father’s death.
‘Little Britain’ star Matt Lucas also took a break from Twitter due to abusive tweets while Jennifer Lawrence has vowed never to join the website.
