I foresee a go-fund me in the ex-jw's future...

Horrible idea. One - He's flooding the market with both a second edition of TRA and a new book. Two - He's going to write about the scandal still with the mindset he was right about this all along. Three - It's too soon for this as the bleeding has not yet stopped. He needs to stablise first. Four - What is the new book going to even be about? Memoir? Done that. How to escape? Same. Doctrinal analysis - did that in TRA. I have a feeling he's writing about the scandal and how he was defamed and tie it in with how exJWs are so judgmental and as messed up as he is. Or possibly a foray into the myriad of books already out there about atheism.

And I can probably think of 5 other reasons why this is dumb. He can try the gofundme - it just further exposes him as the grifter all his critics say he is and he's not getting anything near what he got in the past because of dwindling support plus the notion he doesn't need the money to get this moving. If he can hire lawyers, he has enough to self-publish.

The huge impetus behind TRA was the need to fund this to get it out. $2000 USD funded tops - and that's being generous.

june 1 -504 then june 3 511? COME ON! then it was going down again , then up ?

The reasonable explanation for that are lapsed Patrons who did not intend to drop support and once informed they are no longer a Patron by email, they re-subscribe. There are probably two options with becoming a Patron - auto-renew and ones that have to opt in at the end of the month. Even before the scandal broke, he got small downward spikes at the end of the month but nothing near to what he's getting ever since - typically 20-30 followers gone.

What is hurting him now is what was mentioned earlier - lack of interesting content because he no longer has leaks and collaborators that will join him other than a fan who wants him to interview them. The channel is stagnant right now with very little energy. Also you need to factor in the fact he is quite open about suing people, how much it is costing him to do so, and his excessive holiday schedule. Lloyd had a reputation amongst those who knew no better that he was a "paycheck to paycheck" type of guy and the YouTube demonitisations were hurting him greatly. Now even supporters can see he's not hurting for money which makes dropping patronage much easier. His wholesome family man image also helped as many believed it was a great thing that his wife and daughters were supported as well. Now that image is gone and it's clear that funds are going to a single man who tries to date Instagram models, goes on dating holidays to London during the Jubilee and practically rubs it in everyone's face that he's spending his money how he pleases.

nothing has happened since he made that announcement. The court records online have not changed, and none of us have heard anything

When he gets back from holiday and seeing what his end of month drop in Patrons looks like, look for a renewed effort to push his legal team toward a conclusion.

Always count on him to be triggered by the Patron losses, all of which he blames squarely on Kim and her associates.

How did I miss that? He dropped the suit? The Croatian suit against seven people

Not dropped as in cancelled, dropped as in revealed.

I think there may be a correlation between the size of the drop and the level of assholeness that month.

That’s been precisely the problem the last two months. The end of March drop wasn’t too bad as he made his comeback and said comparatively little about the lawsuit and scandal. But it is clear the lawsuit and continued threats are not too popular with Patrons. April was the Gold interview and he paid for it at the end of the month. May was the huge reveal he had filed and the back and forth with Kim about her credentials. June he dropped the suit and who it was against, and was particularly vicious and taunting in his FB post.

The end of June numbers will be interesting.

498 Patrons as of now BTW. He needs to get to 440 in order to lose his talking point about more than half sticking with him.

Lloyd implied he had suicidal thoughts on several threads on this forum when he felt he was being attacked. It's in his character to use this as a weapon to thwart off what he perceives as an attack upon himself. He even blamed several members (myself included!) for keeping him up too late by responding and thus keeping him away from his wife, putting stress on his marriage.

As much as I would have liked to have turned his wife against that manipulative dipshit, alas, he did it himself with hookers and telling the world she doesn't satisfy him sexually. Yet there she STILL is, sharing an apartment on the coast with him and the girls at this moment courtesy of Patreon™. Something stinks and it's not those fishing boats in the background of his holiday pics he's posting.

I'd say he has the best of both worlds right now, free and convenient access to the family and at some point in the next few days to a week's time he's kissing them goodbye after dropping them off in their provincial and isolated village outside of Sisak. Afterwards he will return to his bachelor pad back in metropolitan Zagreb, setting up karaoke nights at the Swanky Monkey Garden and asking Instagram models out for "coffee". When he returns to his flat, alone and frustrated, that's when the fun begins. There are probably "sailor rags" under his bed, near the toilet and under every piece of furniture to clean up the mess he creates whilst pleasuring himself to long lost thoughts of Tracey with the ink stained bra strap at design school or Phueng, the sex worker he dated in Pa Tong. Work? Naw, he already did that shit weeks ago and Tibor has a few more clips he can spread out to create the illusion of a hardworking man.

How in the fuck is this man anywhere near suicide?

The Warwick “documentary” and the canoe filming stunt were two different occasions. The documentary was with Peter Jueck (Truth Seeker Atheist on YouTube) and former Russellite/Bible Student. Peter made commentary about who in the exhibits actually spilt from Rutherford and joined Bible Student movements. It was quite dull. It was also just weeks after the VAA protest at Warwick which was refused entry and seemed to be in response to that. Peter had a hand in calling the police on the VAA protest and called them “terrorists” and “Aggressive Activists”. He admitted this on a burner YT channel he created called “Leonardo Bonacci” but this was deleted after people got angry with him for calling the police on a protest. He denies it now. This was also just a month or two after the infamous with Tom livestream where went on about Marko and the 14 year old girl.

The canoe stunt was for the TTATT documentary and will likely never be shown due to TTATT severing ties with Lloyd. It happened a year or two later.

The title itself is lame. Outsiders are going to immediately ponder “I’ve never heard of a religion called Warwick”. Even older ex JWs might have a difficult time making the connection as the Warwick facility is rather new.

Whilst it is not unheard of regarding outsiders being allowed a tour, in those cases a handler is assigned to them and the idea is to give an informal witness. A handler would have almost immediately picked up on the fact that those two were not curious observers but rather staunch critics who were there to film for a future video making fun of and critiquing the exhibits.

I want to know too. Paul Grundy is well known by JWs there and was a Australian Bethelite himself if I remember correctly. Then you have him show up with another apostate known worldwide and they decide to let them in for a tour?

Compounding the context of that holiday is the safe assumption that a majority of his 500 remaining patrons wouldn’t be able to afford a 2 week holiday on the Croatian coast near the peak of tourist season. Many wouldn’t even be able to get the time off from work.

It’s like at the Kingdom Hall where people living from paycheck to paycheck cleaning offices for a living are regaled with tales from their Circuit Overseers, Bethelites and GB members recalling their adventures in exotic locales from the podium.

Judging from the Patron numbers which are about to go into the 400s, people are noticing that he loves his holidays.
