SlowFlowPro, here's where I think you're looking at this in the wrong way. Just because somebody can take being bullied and turn that into a positive for himself (like I did and like I'm sure you did), that doesn't mean that bullying itself has benefits. The good didn't come from bullying—it came from you.
Two married friends of mine recently lost a child, and now their marriage is stronger, they say. Benefit from losing a child? Of course not. Their marriage is stronger because they're strong to begin with, and their unfortunate circumstance led to their bringing that out.
When you take a bad situation like being bullied and make yourself stronger, the credit is 100% yours and not that of bullying.
There are no benefits of bullying, says I.

"A new study shows that serious illness, struggling to hold down a regular job, and poor social relationships are just some of the adverse outcomes in adulthood faced by those exposed to bullying in childhood...
...The ‘bully-victims’ were at greatest risk for health problems in adulthood, over six times more likely to be diagnosed with a serious illness, smoke regularly, or develop a psychiatric disorder compared to those not involved in bullying.
The results show that bully-victims are perhaps the most vulnerable group of all. This group may turn to bullying after being bullied themselves as they may lack the emotional regulation or support required to cope with it."
--Association Psychological Science 8/19/13
BTW, Incognito was also bullied as a child.
Hazing is dealt with seriously in the military now. Many articles have been written by troops stating it was not necessary to work as a group as you espouse it to be.
It seems like you have no concept have what hazing is. The upperclassmen hazed us as pledges. Our whole pledge class hated those who hazed the most. It didn't create brotherhood, but animosity instead.

Why are we discussing bullying, its becoming clear incognito was being supportive, trying to help a teammate, motivating, and trying to bring a player along in the lockerroom.

and that personal development isn't really possible without real world application/behaviorism
the world is not egalitarian. there are stratifications. we must learn of them in life and understand the concept

In certain industries, you need a tough skin to survive.
but if that tough skin is needed to survive being around your own teammates - isnt a better answer dealing with why the thick skin is required, instead of saying everyone needs to get thick skin?
id much rather my guys grow as a unit because they are close than because they beat each other up so much that they all have a common bond of having gone through it.

What industries is bullying beneficial in?
Industries where you will be dealing with a lot of failure in your entire career. Yet again, if you are some sort of salesman, the company and the people you work with need to know you won't just walk out in the middle of a tough negotitation because your feelings were hurt or your crumbled under the pressure.
Do you know anything about sales???
I am a Regional Director for a company, in a sales capacity, that works in high-end architectural concepts.
Bullying has nothing to do with success. At all. Ever.
Setting benchmarks and professionalism-- which your clients expect at the top levels of industries-- is what makes you excel. Teamwork is not created through bullying.
If I, or higher ranking company officers, found out someone was being bullied there would first be a) intervention then b) counseling, and then c) firing, if this conduction continued.
And that's why it doesn't exist.
You have little knowledge of a professional workplace.

Ehhh. I'd be willing to bet you could find a study that showed some of the most successful people in all avenues of life were bullied as children as well. I think it has a lot more to do with said child's parental involvement with the situation and overall than the actual instance of bullying.

Well then find those studies. I bring research. You bring opinion.

ok, lets talk me. Where were we at on me again? Restraint? At least i'm on the right side of the fence with my apparent lack of restraint.

How about a link to your study so we can actually bread the parameters?

“So goes it for every Soldier in the history of the Army. No matter when they came through basic training or Ranger School or whatever, they came through the last hard class. I’m not impressed with leaders who think they have to abuse their Soldiers to train them to standard. I’m not impressed with leaders who think the lack of abuse makes basic training soft. We were all in the last hard class – get over it. We do things differently now, and we’re producing Soldiers every bit as good as we ever have.”
