| I don't hate ALW. But I'm going to call anyone on it if they behave like a pompous ass. Which, I'm afraid, is how Lord "You'll Have to Arrest Me Before I Close for Covid" Lloyd-Webber has been acting. | |

| Sure, call out the stupid comments - but the level of vitriol on here can border on the unhinged | |

| I see nothing "unhinged" in this thread to warrant a comment about "haters." Every comment has been a reaction to ALW's own tone-deaf statements. | |

| I think a poster saying "if only" ALW would kill himself warrants a comment about 'haters'. | |

| Yes, that's what he said - and when some other posters called him out on it, rather than apologise, he lashed out and insulted them | |

| well that posted was deleted/removed quickly and what remains strikes me as quite reasonable under the circumstances. There is no guilt by association. ALW seems to have moved on from Puccini to Wagner (specifically,Götterdämmerung :-) ) |

| Just to make it clear for you, a number of post have now been removed - also removing the context of a number of remaining posts. You might want to rethink the snark if you're going to post without being aware of the full context | |

| There is absolutely nothing 'snarky' about my response. I am not mocking anybody, just pointing out that the reply appears to be unrelated to the post that precedes it. (When posts are removed, the threaded replies usually disappear with it.) | |

| Yes, the “entirely predictable” post by sf that this entire conversation branched off of. | |

| but as you point out in another post, that one is not "now gone," since it's "still here." hence my question. I was wondering if others had been deleted. fwiw unlike the now deleted one of which I am aware I don't have a problem with sf's post which suggests a possible logical progression in ALW's batty-ness. Although of course he would just threaten it and then not do it. | |

| See-- you're behaving like a complete ass. Moderators, I've been penalized on this site for far less. Ryhog is combative, rude, belligerent, and foolish. Maybe he should get a little time out. I expect better from my 5-year-old. |

| I'm sure you can appreciate, though, that calling out someone for behaving like an ass and comparing them to your five-year-old over that post is also in the realm of combative, rude, belligerent, and foolish. I get it, tempers are flaring all around and silly things are being said left, right, and center. The Webber situation seems to have become a place to vent all sorts of frustrations around Covid, and a number of folks are writing things that they'll perhaps regret (or at least acknowledge was extreme) in another day or two. |

| You really should choose your words more carefully. You are entitled to your hate but you aren't welcome to openly condone the depraved thoughts of others that suggest suicide is a 'logical progression'. That is an all-time low standard you have sunk to. I would suggest you take a few minutes and review where your hateful thoughts are leading you. This isn't the place for it and I hope the moderators follow suit with you as they did with Mr Portantiere. Enough already. |

| I think you have misread what I wrote. The logical progression I mention is a series of tantrums of increasing amplitude, threatening various outcomes that are never realized. (Something about chicken little seems apt here.) Just as a three year old acting out has not seized upon a strategy that is effective, so too this silly 73 year old baby has not. And that ultimately is the point: the theatre needs intelligent and effective leadership for sure, but a petulant adult is just an embarrassment. | |

| I read it again. You still allude to ALW being suidical or threatening to end his life then not doing it and all as a 'logical' outcome. It is neither true, nor is it funny and it doesn't belong here. |

| I haven't been following this thread religiously, but in my experience when a post is deleted, usually all the posts in its immediate sub-thread go with it. But just that section. | |

| That's my experience as well. In essence, I was asking if there were any other posts under it. I did see the deleted post and I am not sure what of significance one could say in reply but of course it is also my experience that that is not a prerequisite. :-) | |

| Yes, there were more posts deleted. Unfortunately when the poster of the offensive post was called out by others, he chose to then attack those that were calling him out, rather than apologizing. So there were a number of posts that have now been deleted | |
