This isn't actually a 'vc' in the UK who has any standing either

Sumon, thanks for your kind comment on my "standing". I look forward to seeing you again in London in person, perhaps at Open Coffee, and maybe we can compare our respective CVs. Meantime, perhaps you can elaborate on what relevance my employment has to my comments on my user experience of this Outlook add-in?

He said this because the original title of the post described it as the opinion of a "UK VC." Since most of the readers of News.YC are American, he knew they'd naturally be curious whether you were a well-known one or not.

The CV of the commentator is irrelevant. He's not claiming to be more experienced/well known than you; he is claiming that you are not a well known UK VC.

Can you share any more?
