Or is there another impediment?
That would appear to be an insinuation for purposely impeding the request. It may just be lack of command of the English language, or somehow he believes asking "will there be other impediments" (impede: delay or prevent (someone or something) by obstructing them; hinder) was not rude and he believes its meaning is "can you think of anything to add that might be helpful?" That is difficult to imagine.
Equally difficult was at that point envisioning a completion of the request. The response less than two hours before wraith808's was in entirity,

I am a native English speaker, so that's not the problem here. When I was asking was there another impediment, I was asking was there another problem? Was there something else in what was delivered that was lacking. Was there something else you needed? Was there another hindrance or obstruction in doing what you needed in that solution that Skrommel posted? Was there another requirement that you needed. I just wanted to know if there was some deficiency in what was offered before I spent the time to try to figure out how to get the chrome extension on the windows store.
My perspective was that if there was nothing else, I could look at getting it on the Windows store, since that was outside of his area of expertise. To carry the solution across the finish line. But, apparently there was another impediment - Skrommel's suggested solution targeted Edge, and you wanted it to target Internet Explorer. A simple statement would have brought that to light.
That you interpreted
"Is there another impediment" as
"That would appear to be an insinuation for purposely impeding the request." And used that as the rationale for your next reply- I can't even make that association. If it indeed didn't satisfy your requirements, you could have indeed simply said, it doesn't meet my requirements as stated; I need it in internet explorer, and he only tried it in Edge. Which would have more than answered the question. And I would have tried what he did in IE, and tried to find something that allowed Chrome extensions to work in IE.
With that in mind, I looked to see if there was a way to implement what Skrommel did in IE. There was not. I also looked to see if there was a way around that limitation. Without fully coding an IE add on, the facilities that might have worked (greasemonkey scripts) are no longer supported. And might have fallen outside of your parameters as you wanted something easy to install.
And one other thing, I'm not sure who you're targeting with your statement:
...knowing that those same three people had completely derailed any chance of the project again seeing the light of day with baseless concepts for confusing the goal and insistence for a /tip/ that was intended and might have increased had they not supported the person and waited to see if skrommel returned and wanted to request /more/.

But if it is me, I never said anything about your intended charity or money or anything, other than to say that the money at hand wasn't an issue.
