You still haven't answered my question. What is your function here? What are you trying to accomplish? Has someone appointed you to this "position" you feel you have here? Maybe best to just let people be, and mind your own business.

You haven't asked _me_ a question yet.

I direct your attention to the username portion of the comment headers.

* What is your function here? -- I live, I laugh, I read.

* What are you trying to accomplish? -- Very little at this point in my life although I do nudge along various renewable projects and do some track upkeep on a 1,000 km long walking trail, herd a few sheep, etc.

* Has someone appointed you to this "position" you feel you have here? -- There's one official moderator here, a community of regular users, and various users with extra (and lesser) powers passed out by the mod.

* Maybe best to just let people be, and mind your own business. -- I've pointed out you're headed into a ditch with the badgering of someone else <shrug> .. call that a PSA, do with it as you will.

Yes, I did miss the fact that I was not responding to the person I originally asked that question to, my bad there.

But - I'm merely sharing something I think people will be interested in (and have shown interest in here in the past). If people are, indeed interested, the post gains traction and sticks around, if not, the post gets buried in obscurity. That is the beauty of this democratic process here.

Sure. It's a fun little build you have there, a modern take on video feedback with effects et al.

Sharing your work isn't at issue, the builder and seller of Klein Bottles is here as are many other creators.

Two specific things are at play here, the creation of a dedicated account to only promote your work (if that is what is happening here, _I_ make no claims wrt that), and the badgering of a fellow forum user who routinely points out past related links, dupes, etc (as a commonplace occurrence).

If in a day or two you return and reread your own comments here demanding to know who people are and why they make such comments then you might see these exchanges in a different light. The site guidelines linked above are worth the read.
