Cyclists ringing their bell at pedestrians on the pavement is like cars honking their horns at cyclists in a bike lane

It's not your space, so don't impose on the people using it properly

I'm sorry that roads can be bad for cyclists, but making the pavement bad for pedestrians isn't the answer

Some pavements in the UK are shared right of way with cyclists and ringing your bell is the correct thing to do and that's why it's there, so you don't sneak up on someone and cause an accident.
