An Actor is a CommNode ID for a specific person, or for an administrative account. It's different from a message. They are both Objects, but they serve different purposes.
A Message is just that - lines of either text or interactive things like sketches and photos. An Actor can be though of as the Root ID of an account.
How Actors Behave[edit | edit source]
A CommNet Message is either public or private. If it is public, anyone can see it. If it is private, it can only be seen by whomever created it as well as anyone it has been shared with.
Anyone can open the CommNet ID of an Actor. However, what you see when you open it will vary depending on if you own the ID or not.
If you own the ID, you will see all of the nodes that account has created, along with a tag telling you if each one is Public or Private.
If you do not own the ID, you will just see a list of PUBLIC nodes for that account.
