Kad said: "Patti, girl: who do you think the members here are?
They're the ones who sit on rush lines and crowd at lotteries. They're the ones who performed in school shows. Many of them work for theatres, maybe ones you have worked for, too. Or they work for your unions, as your house staff, or in your box offices. They're the ones who wait with bated breath to hear about a new show in previews. They're the ones who are excited that a show like She Lives Me is revived. They have seen all the great divas, all the Golden Age shows. They're the ones who trek to New York from Missouri or California or overseas. They know all the lyrics. They know who the understudies and swings are. And, girl, they know who you are."
They certainly know that name now, and not in a positive way at all. This should be stickied.

In person?
If you're both in NYC, I don't see why not.

Here's the thing. It's impossible to hold an actual conversation on Twitter due to the stupid character limit. You'd have to take it to DM. Or post screenshots of long texts the way some people do.

I thought we could dm on Twitter but I wasn't sure...and then I accidentally followed her

Just point her toward this thread. We've done our talking.

She reads young (so she must be up for a lot of cheerleader roles) and comes across as hopelessly naive, but does she really have to be told she oughtn't be offering to sit and talk with strangers? I mean, ugh, what do I care? Does she have management? Somebody talk to the child.

whew just unfollowed her, that was awkward for a sec. yeah idk why she wants to sit down with me (and if she means in person or on the phone or what) I just wanted to prove her wrong about "no one" coming forward I guess. ha! she's wrong.

I swear to GOD if she even light snarks you on not being man enough to sit down with her I am going to go OFF.

idk if she's reading this thread but I'm considering tweeting her saying she can DM me. I don't want to come off as ingratiating though.

She's wrong about a lot of things...
In the end, BWW boards will remain standing where they are because her demands are naive and arguments incomplete.
In order to save face, she had to praise Rob for releasing the reporting link that they were already working on, before this Nerds business, and take credit for that. That's pretty much it.
I do wish she could intellectually absorb Kad's post at minimum, though. There's a lot more to this board than the few trolls and propensity to express opinion as fact, not including those quotes she misinterpreted.

Not if you're no longer following her she can't (unless Twitter has since changed that rule)

Gypsy, you've never heard of her before this. Don't feed her ego. You have no obligation to represent the entirety of the board population.

Okay, this is my very last post on this particular thread just because I honestly don't want/care to get any further entangled in this. I've just had a quote on my mind as this evening has unfolded:
“I disapprove of what you say, but I will defend to the death your right to say it."
With that, peace.

She's not reading this. She doesn't read the boards. Why would she read the boards? The boards are HELL to her. Why would she put herself through hell? Why?

To be fair, the mod post did mention her by name. They didn't credit her for the creation, but they did credit her for the timing. She has every right to claim credit when it's freely given to her first.
Whether or not she should've received that credit is something else entirely.

I did tweet her a few things. sure, I'd never heard of her but I didn't personally mean to hurt her feelings. it's whatever, I guess. She's kind of right about one thing: it's harder to totally drag people when your name is right there.

Oh, Rob did set that up.

Now, if the real Patti was asking for a discussion...

I agree.
when your name is right there.
Flip side of that coin: Unknown at 6, played out never-was by midnight.

Namo, I like your light snark.

I like how she's replying to you indirectly, allowing all her followers to see the exchange.
She's not really talking to you at all.
