It's about ethics in snarking. 

Thanks!!

I swear I thought I responded. Repeating:

Okay, baby.  It's a lot less personal than you might think, if that makes you feel any better.  I just think a lot of the high dudgeon surrounding PattiGate could be rolled back a notch. 

Ooooh, Carlos's posts were deleted. I'm assuming at his request since he didn't seem to be violating any rules. 

What about the myriad others who explicitly called for the boards to be taken down?  

So the board will have a "blacklist" for its own members, but there's something morally wrong about having one for performers who don't know how the internet works?

Actually, maybe the McCarthy stuff  tracks.  It should certainly be said that the PattiGate ringleaders are acting like supporters at a Trump rally. 

/not taking it personally, also not calling for deletions

 You're right, Joe. It's much more like McCarthy's list."

Come on, guys.  

I mean, I didn't start that list thread, but it was certainly contextualized in its first post.   And - after all this scolding and fingerwagging - it violated no board rules.  How can you obey unwritten rules that seem to change at the caprices of whomever  has control of the delete button at the time?

You're nice. Thanks for that answer!

Are you our liaison?

It was so benign, but whatever. 

I can!  Yesterday I had a comment deleted within seconds. 

Thank you for keeping us up with him!  He is really killing it. 

Thanks, bwayto!

I miss goth.  Now that he's gone, I guess there's no harm in admitting that I met him once. 

I'm not as inside baseball is a lot of people here, but I've been meaning to ask - does that Broadway.com dude who tweeted that tweet about cancelling their message boards in 2002 still run Broadway.com?  Because that's an off a lot of smugness from a site that seems to exist solely to bilk unsuspecting people with  outrageous service fees. 

I just thought you really like Burger King.

I bet this is how @chrissyteigen feels sometimes. But on like a microcosm scale. Like, a teeny, tiny, sliver of a microcosm scale.

These people aren't thinking before joining the parade. 

It's a good thing there's no critical thinking skills test required to obtain an equity card.
