Mods have told you, and other users have told you, that it is fine to repost something if the earlier submission didn't get posted.
Mods will often tell you to resubmit a story if they thought it was good but it didn't get much attention.
If there are different versions of the story it's probably useful to compile a list of all the different versions, and say which one you think is best.
And if a submission has had some discussion in the past it's useful to link to that previous discussion.
(I agree about the name calling. That wasn't necessary.)
