The turn this thread has taken in the last 24 hours is crazy. Show just how looney tune this site is. A guy comes here trashing Alan, who is his father, over business and professional issues. Goes as far as to make statements referencing Alan's gambling addiction, which isn't anything new to most of us. And then they kiss and make up and worst of all, Alan's son deletes all his posts and everything he said. That in itself is pretty sleezy.
I have deleted things myself, when after a bit of time, I thought better of it several times. Sometimes things I said about my play and a couple hours later when I read it, I say, "oh I can't say that, it is too identifying". Other times it hasn't been about my play, but maybe I just said something nasty that I regret. But to delete numerous posts, with the charges that Alan's son made is crazy. It changes the conversation. Shouldn't be allowed. I guess the way around that is to quote everything so there is a record.
