tort1234: tinyE was
abusing his popularity in various ways and he was getting away with it because he was popular and no one had the courage to straighten him out.
He was acting like one of those popular kids in highschool who smacks a girls butt and gets away with it because he is popular and no one complains about the sexual assault.
1. He routinely called people "Assholes"
2. He insulted other people's mothers with very crude remarks and unfunny sex "jokes"
3. He was throwing around the word "scammer" with no proof.
4. He was acting as a forum bully.
I am not taking any sides on this issue but you have my sympathies tort1234.
In the corporate environment where I work at, a handsome 6 foot tall former high school jock routinely gets away with doing things that are downright sexual harassment and passive-aggressive bullying of shorter weaker males. Almost everyone just turns a blind eye to his indiscretions because of his popular reputation.
The only thing you can do is just suck it up, keep a low profile, do your job and get the hell out of there.
