There were two responses in that post. One to the question of why the error is happening. The other to the POS comment.

I'm sorry, but did Renderosity say that it is OK to be disrespectful of others in this forum, or does the TOS say the opposite? Because IMO, calling my work and that of the people at SM a POS is insulting, and I feel my response was within bounds. If you don't like it, take it up with mods.  The mods have repeatedly said that posts like YOURS, fatbuckel, where you rant about the communication style of other posters is specifically discouraged, if not prohibited. Further, your characterization of my response as smarmy is inaccurate and inflammatory, which is also discouraged. I did just answer the nice person, in the first two paragraphs. If you're reading something smarmy in it, then that's your fault, because you seem to be reacting to things you think were implied, none of which you qualified, so I can't actually understand what you're talking about. My inclination is to believe you, in fact, don't have anything useful to say and that you don't know what you're talking about.

The last two paragraphs were not directed at the "nice" person, but instead to the comment that my work is a piece of shit. In my head, I had a much more pointed response, but I chose a phrasing that should be considered as delivered with considerable moderation.

I have similar thoughts for you, but I'm keeping them to myself.

Renderosity forum reply notifications are wonky. If I read a follow-up in a thread, but I don't myself reply, then notifications no longer happen AT ALL on that thread. So if I seem to be ignoring a question, that's why. (Updated September 23, 2019)
