Here's some advice, meant in the most constructive way possible:

1. Forums such as this are text driven and have general rules and conventions that must be followed in order for others to want to listen what you're saying before they're able to actually hear what you've got to say. Control of written language is key... following conventions regarding the use of capital letters and font size/color are consequential to your participation on this (or any other forum). Maybe spend more time lurking and take note of how others post to know what is appropriate and what is not.

2. While you may be completely legitimate in your claims of having a long history and experience that is valuable and insightful, this is the internet and anyone can claim anything they want until they're able to provide adequate witness or proof. Don't take it personally.

3. Sometimes other members will offer "helpful advice" and/or assert authority they don't have for whatever reason. If you've got a concern or an issue, you can contact a moderator yourself or moderator will contact you directly.

Hope this helps...

Some/Most of the above advice was already given with your first post! Please edit and it will be so much easier to get some help here.

I suggest that you read the forum rules and take it from there. Nobody is going to "throw you off." There have been plenty of shops that have posted their projects. So if your shop is working on a project that you feel will be of interest to the forum member, by all means post the progress. If you would like to be able to actually advertise your business, you have to become a sponsor.
