re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

if you do not like a wicked thread do not click on it and type something nasty. people want to discuss the show and do not need negative comments. i do not like brooklyn or avenue q but i keep my nasty comments to myself. do not tell peopkle to use the search option because everytime someone wants to post something they don't use it, me being one of those people. don't come on here and tell peoople want they can and cannot post. if you see a thread you do not like STAY AWAY.

For your information Broadwaystar2b and everyon else, these message boards are open for ANYONE to post about ANYTHING. There should be no need for Wicked fans to have to privatley do messages and hide their thoughts about the show. Why does it bother you if there is a post that has a familiar topic? Don't read it! Everyone can post anything they want here so back off!

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

My originally intent of this post was to protect Wicked fans from getting offended from some of the bashing this board can have
Now it seems I have to protect myself from my personal own bashing
Oh dear

ahh..sorry broadwaystar. Let me re-phrase. I meant to say that I am sad and disgusted that you had to post a message preventing Wicked fans from talking. It was nothing against you. I AM upset with the people (cough broadwayguy and matt_G) who continue to come into the boards about Wicked and say "Stop posting these!" By no means do they have to read the messages and why does it make them so mad when they see a message about Wicked? It makes no sense. That's all re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

"was nothing against you. I AM upset with the people (cough broadwayguy and matt_G)"

Wow.. thats a first I have seen someone bash BWG2 like that, he is one of the nicest people the these boards. Most people just say "There are a million of these posts use the search engine" Well the best thing to do is just IGNORE it and go on with your lives

<-- look. Wicked screenname. I'm a fan. Even *I* am sick of these threads.

You've been here five whole days, dear. Wait a while. See what you think.

If you don't change your thinking...well, let's just say you won't be around long anyway.

"Well the best thing to do is just IGNORE it and go on with your lives"...I hope that was talking about the people who bash Wicked posts. IF it is, that is EXACTLY what they should do because there is no law that if there is a post on here that has already been talked about that the world is gonna blow up! Just ignore it and move on. Thank you..happy new year re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

May I direct all you Shizkids who think you should have a right to talk about your obssession to THIS little link, where your comments will be WELCOME, and then we will not need to HAVE threads like this:

Thanks, and a happy new year to all of you too! re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

The people who hate the "shizkids" so much do seem to spend a lot of time commenting on threads that they created. I really think that "shizkids" like myself are doing you a favor. If we didn't start threads, what would you have to post comments on?!?!

Besides, how come once a show becomes popular the people on this site hate it? Seems pretty immature to me!

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

Notice how it's all the newbies who are commenting on how dumb we're being, but all the more rational, relative veteran Wicked fans who now understand what we're talking about. Stick around for a few months and see if you think the same.

Also, AGAIN to the people who say just skip the threads you don't want to read - IT'S NOT JUST ABOUT SKIPPING OVER THREADS. It's about the bandwidth these useless, repetitive threads take up. It's to no one's benefit. Not to the Wicked fans looking for information. Not to the Broadway fans who don't want to read about Wicked. Not to the moderators who have to spend so much time maintaining all of these threads and having a progressively slower and slower site.

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

Yes, I'm a newbie. But even I'm stunned at how many threads a day there are pertaining to Wicked, and how they all seem to be generally about the same thing. I love the show, but at the same time this seems excessive. I don't think anybody here is trying to say that the Wicked fans should just shut up and not post about the show. Plain and simple this is the internet, it's for (porn! alright, moving past bad ave. q joke, haha) free expression and whatnot. Just that there should be more posting new questions about Wicked and a lot less posting of questions that have already been answered five, six, and seven times.

Type_A_Tiff...we get it, we get it. It's not about skipping the threads. And you talk about others being repetitive.

Notthatgirl...thanks for posting the info about the other site. I'll be going there as well but I won't be leaving this site entirely. Like many others, I like to read posts about other subjects too. Thanks again!

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

You're perfectly welcome. And I wasn't suggesting that you leave, just that if you want to discuss Wicked in more detail, it'll be appreciated there.

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

If you get it, you get it, than why must you and others like you continue beating this dead horse? Furthermore, it's not just popular shows that get trashed - Avenue Q is certainly popular (enough to deservedly beat Wicked in the Tonys, but that's neither here nor there) and doesn't nearly get the drubbing that Wicked does. Why? Because of its FANS.

re: To All New BWW members (wicked fans in particular)

I agree that there a some over-the-top Wicked fans who are just really asking to be tared and feathered, but I find some posters who need to be constantly sarcastic and insulting towards them just as bad. No, I'm not talking about the people who occasionally post snarky comments towards them, but the ones who seem to always show up in the Wicked threads that they claim to be better than and hate so much. It seems that many of those people just try to make themselves feel better by picking on those fans. Not only that, but how many parody threads have there been to make fun of Wicked fans? Yeah, a lot of them seem to be asking for it, but are you really better than them when you make Wicked fan-bashing your routine?

IMO, the best way to fight against those threads are to make your own interesting topics to talk about rather than fueling the fire and raging a war on posters who are probably much much younger than you, if not in age, then in maturity.

That said, I think the original post in this thread makes a good point and everyone should take the advice.

I think these posts have been nice and well-put. But while we're at it, can someone who types more articulatly than I PLEASE say something concerning spelling/grammar/CaPiTaLiZaTiOn, issues I think can be annoying to members.
