Kim My is my guess that he is out of contract and included that dialog only for the purpose of drama

Since we know he's not really skint that's a given! Makes total sense since he probably actually signed contracts a year ago (?)

the short answer is no, it is not.. i have heard one or two proposals that it is, including from langfocus, a usually excellent youtube channel.. but no, english is actually a germanic language which has borrowed many words from other languages.

here are several reasons why english is germanic at its core .... 1. verb forms.

i play - ich spiele.

TD Or cardinal numbers as another example. American English omits the word, "and" for numbers higher than 100, just like German. --One hundred five / einhundertfünf

Aha! You've explained something I always wondered about!

I'd imagine the influence comes not only from German settlers, but also all the non Germans whose mother tongue is Yiddish, which of course is German derived.

Has Tony been abducted by Aliens?

by Mit123 in

probably but they’ve sent him back pretty darn quick!

i have from a very reliable source that he attends one of the poughkeepsie ny congregations.

i think there are 5 congregations there might be worth paying a visit if anyone lives near there..

Can you ask your contact the big question-

did he partake of the emblems yesterday?

that is an obvious question that everyone wants to know

Unless he's lost his faith completely I doubt very much he wouldn't.

As long as a JW hasn't been DF he would still partake, GB or not. What "privileges" they have doesn't affect anointing (see: women JWs lol)

In other words LE wants to back out of a contract and expects not to be asked to pay what has committed in full. If not, he will again claim some sort of unfairness just because he is not being given special treatment.

I noticed that Slim. What's annoying is that chances are he picked a landlord who is asking a more than reasonable rate. You know Lloyd would never pay the going rate for anything.

Now Reddit is falling and they are scrambling to send their enforcers to take control back but it’s not working.

Reddits gone mate😜😂

The fact that the mods are allowing it to stay up also says a lot.

That's what I thought pr0ner Mods are pissed this time!

Fast Jehu (best ever exjw name) can't post on reddit because I deleted my account there after the moderator of the german EX-JW group stopped allowing posts about Lloyd Evans.

However, I can translate english texts into german for you.

So presumably he won't let me do the same? I just have a feeling a lot of new donations are either from foreign speakers or, more likely, ex Mormons who watch his channel too.

Best of Topics

by Simon in

jw
best-of

some people had a penchant for posting their topics directly into the "best of topics" area.

it seemed more than a little arrogant to me that some imagined their every utterance was immediately a greatest hit but maybe people weren't clear on what that area was intended for .... from now on you won't be able to start new topics there.

if anyone wants to submit a topic to be added there (perhaps an index to a curated list of other topics by a user or on a certain subject / theme) then just start one in "suggestions" and pm me and, if it is suitable, then i'll move it into there.. existing topics posted there recently have been moved to more appropriate areas..

Fantastic works! Thank you Lady Lee thank you Simon!

Happy Easter both of you <3

Lloyd "the difference between a salary and company finances"

Oh come on Lloyd! Everyone knows YOU are the company & you take whatever you want (17% increase last year).

The only real overhead you really have is Tibor's wages and insurance for your equipment (wait ....didn't you raise money for a lost piece of equipment a while back? Isn't that a Watchtower scam where you get others to replace/fix stuff after a "disaster" and then pocket the insurance pay out?)

As I mentioned before, you're even provided with a free pad courtesy of your JW in-laws (and "need greater" JWs who basically did a 'kingdom hall build' for you to house your donated watchtower books in).

Another thought is to have a big you tube "party" for exjw posters online to discuss Norway, the reaction to the shooting etc and (well) so many recent topics but advertised well in advance so plenty of folks can watch (and Barb Anderson isn't well by the way everyone I think a get well video is in order maybe?). Anyway perhaps during that it could be mentioned that Lloyd really doesn't need that money and is fleecing the community (& always has).

Edit: sorry I meant to say have a live call in Rick Fearon style because those are so good for new leavers & folks that need to get stuff off of their chest. Maybe someone (me!) Will call in to talk about this?!!

Can anyone write in German? ( Maybe fast Jehu?)

I'll post on Reddit a thread topic that will link this thread about vulnerable, low income JWs being taken advantage of by exjws. I'm willing to bet if no names are mentioned they won't take it down. I'm not sure you can still post on the Lloyd mega threads and anyway it wouldn't be seen by new leavers and non proficient English speakers, who probably just check out the top threads anyway.

If the post is written in a generalised way but with some specific examples relating to Lloyd it may just fly.

I just want to get the financials straight first. I need a link to his company tax return for last year (the €8,200 thing), his earnings for 2022, his earnings for 2021 and maybe a link to the average Croation wage? If I don't use his name but give these as "examples" of the sort of income "top" exjw you tubers earn maybe the post will stay up? I know Reddit mods don't like "intrigue" as they term it, but for heaven's sakes surely they can see how vulnerable young and impoverished cult leavers are wide open to being taken advantage of like this. His income even now is more than enough to live comfortably in Croatia, especially when you're not even having to pay rent, or a mortgage, if you don't want to.
