I have contacted the owner of the forum several times with proof of this harassment and the verdict.. "IF you feel you are being harassed, I will talk to him"..IF? WTF~!
If other people don't see it as being as obvious as you do, I have to wonder who's perception is inaccurate. You have presented us your perspective of the situation but in doing so you revealed that a moderator on that other forum didn't regard it in the same way. Your inherent bias as a participant may be causing you to be wrong in your judgment.
Do you not read where he blatantly points out how worthless I am and all the things I do wrong vs being a good Senior member and helping along those who are not as WISE as he apparently thinks he is?
Are you posting bad, inaccurate or dangerous information as care advice?
Because if you are, I'd nail you to a wall too. I am not forgiving of people who try to teach without actually comprehending the subject. People stack up mounds of self serving platitudes to excuse this behavior but it's hardly an excuse for spreading misinformation that someone more competent and qualified will have to come along and correct. All the good intentions in the world do not make up for spreading ignorance that endangers another person's animal.
If this other person's behavior is accepted by the moderators and your complaint is found to be without merit by them, I am forced to wonder if he's contributing something of value while you're doing the opposite.
I wanna know when being a jack ass Know it all became popular and cool? Just goes to show that if putting people down is the only way to make yourself feel better then maybe YOU need to get some help dude..
Being a jackass has been directly linked to popularity since before we came down from the trees. Our socialization as a species is a very thin coating of logic, reason and goodwill covering up our inherently baboon brains and behaviors. Simply put, a dominant individual can get away with harassing a less dominant individual because the less dominant individual lacks the ability to make them stop or the social support to cause a general rejection of the behavior. A dominant individual will also go out of their way to make sure less dominant individuals- especially but not exclusively those who are potential rivals- are harassed to reinforce their relative social positions.
It's unlikely that he's putting you down to make himself feel better because he has a negative self image. If anything the act of bullying supports the idea that he has a positive self image which is socially supported by his ability to get away with the behavior. The "he probably feels bad about himself" is something the parents of bullied children say in order to soothe the wounded egos of their precious defective offspring but there's no real basis for the statement. It's a band-aid, not behaviorism.
'course if it's something you heard often enough to believe then I am again forced to wonder why you think it's logical to assume that other people are the problem- if people are constantly attacking, mocking and belittling you, it would seem that
You are the common element in those situations. Stop being a wimpy monkey,; bare some teeth, steal some food and fling poo with the alphas.
