While discussing a public, published blog post is obviously acceptable, this conversation is starting to get into territories that are likely better handled via official channels. So we will be locking this thread. Thank you, and everyone have a great Friday.
We recently updated our server moving to a different provider. In the transfer, it is possible that if multiple people had uploaded different images with the same file name, they might not have been put back in the same spot.
However, you are welcome to reupload the original version. We apologize about the confusion, this was not something that we anticipated could potentially happen.
Depending on the context, we try to give leeway on these types of things, but there are no situations in which the language used in these now deleted posts is acceptable on our site, even if it is quoting a public figure who said these things.
We wanted to update you on this process. our partner that we referenced yesterday paused a few of the sources that seem to have the most issues like these.
So, we ask that if you see these types of things happening again to email us at moderator[at]broadwayworld[dot]com. Or, if you previously had those issues, but no long do, please let us know that as well. As we get more information, they will continue to play with sources to try and pinpoint where the problem
We have deleted a series of posts in this thread that were just two users parsing each others' posts on a question not directly related to the thread. You are, of course, welcome to continue the bickering using PMs, but let's keep this thread focused on this week's grosses. Thank you.
Hi all, thank you for chiming in. As others have said this is something that we are aware of, and are working on. Unfortunately, this is coming from bad actors exploiting one of our programmatic partners. This is an issue that plagues the internet and is a bit like whack-a-mole in trying to combat; once you stop one, they come up with a new one.
Nonetheless, we always send over all of these URLs to our partner to block, so please continue to send them to us at moderator[at]b
Hello all, in removing a duplicate post in the "Sondheim-Ives Bunuel no more?" thread, we accidentally removed the entire thread. We are currently looking at options to report it, but we wanted to make sure everyone knew that it was deleted on accident.
We just wanted to jump into the middle of this discussion to remind everyone that while you are welcome to discuss performances, and to even engage about other posters' opinions and statements, when the line is crossed to insulting/attacking others, that is when we will have to remove posts that violate our rules.
For the most part, while this thread has been contentious at times, most posters have made obvious efforts to keep the disagreements and critiques about the perform
While we appreciate the discussion of the appropriateness of a casting decision relative to race, but the thread is not about how racist or not a specific country is, we think this discussion has run its course.
haterobics said: "Do the mods tell you when they remove posts or do you have to just sort it out on your own?"
If we delete a post that we think was made in good faith, but in our opinion crossed the line, we will send a PM and let the poster know that it was deleted and why. If it was done in a manner in which we believe that the poster already knew that they were violating the rules, we will let the deletion speak for itself.
Any messages that have been deleted have been done so because they have been determined to have violated our rules. Just because you (or we) ultimately agree with the post, doesn't mean that it can't be inappropriate for the board. Attacking an individual for whatever reason is in 99% of the cases going to violate our rules. By all of the pages of discussion in this thread already, we welcome the debate and conversation, but it needs to be kept within the confines of our rules. <
We're very excited to announce today the launch of a BWW Buy & Sell Board! This has been by far one of our most requested features over the years and the team has been hard at work getting this up and running over the last few weeks.
If you're looking to sell or buy anything theatre related (merch, memorabilia, tickets, etc) this is the board for you! We're moving all those here from the main board to make it more convenient to both list and br
Hello all, if you've been following this thread, you know that it has devolved into quite a bit of a mess over the past 12 hours. As some of you have noted, we have deleted all of the posts from that period that were not about the topic at hand, but were instead focused on arguing with a particularly antagonistic poster. While we would rather not delete that many posts, it had take the thread so far afield from the topic at hand, we felt it necessary.
We know our boards have the best detectives in the biz, so if you think you've got all the answers, you can enter to win our contest for tix to the next show at Paper Mill!
Hi all, while there is likely zero chance that "Dear Evan Hansen" will close any time soon, we don't see any reason to close the thread just yet. From our perspective, and as others have politely pointed out, the OP's question probably comes from at least a nugget of contractual truth, even if the likelihood of it happening is practically nonexistent.
As other posters continue to share insight as to explain how contracts, closings, etc. work, we think that there
goldenstate5, since you asked publicly, your message was not edited for the use of the word "jeeeeez," it was edited because of the personal insult that followed it about posters who had been vocal with their dislike of the show. We thought that since the remainder of your message did not violate the board's rules that this was a better option than deleting the entire post. I hope that clears up the confusion.
By the way, "jeeeeez" is a perfectly acceptable word

Not sure what the issue was, but we cleared the cache on that part of the site, and it looks to be back to normal. Thanks for the heads up!
Thank you for your thoughts on the topic to all who have posted in this thread this morning. As we always have, we support and welcome everybody to review, comment on, and discuss shows, movies, songs, and performers' onstage work as long as those comments do not cross any lines into personal attacks, including statements that are demonstrably inaccurate for the purpose of negatively commenting on an individual.
