Cause of death is not confirmed but Vince had heart problems. He spoke about them on social media.
exjw and artist (sponge bob) vince deporter has passed away at 63.. vince was an intense yet sweet guy.
we didn’t always agree but he’d always swing by later and either smooth things out or just move on.
he held no grudges.. he’ll be missed...

slimboyfat - Absolutely hilarious how at the end of the second thread, he congratulated himself for getting you unbanned after being responsible for your ban in the first place.

That list of grievances, trying to make himself sound ... well, I don't know what - clever? intellectual? important?
He’ll likely deny it, but the 9 grievances are his version of the 95 Theses of Martin Luther against the Catholic Church. Either he was a better than average secondary student or he picked that up from reading Ray Franz’s books. He knew he was writing a book and he viewed himself as a modern day Luther. (He was a doubting Christian when he wrote the 9 grievances).
In addition to the “King of the North”, the Memorial partakers increasing sounds a bit contrived. Why not just mention the 1914 doctrine, which was the ultimate source of his suspicions regarding the increased Memorial partakers?
Same with masturbation. It would have better to just critique the org’s strict policy on sex and their efforts to police it even between married couples. He was married at the time he wrote it, which would imply he was still heavily into that, pornography and cybersex at the time he wrote the 9 grievances (represented in his book as the year 2011).

Toblerone5:
That YouTube comment interaction was crazy to read. Reminds me of a few exchanges he had here.
Nothing more encapsulates the neurotic absurdity of Lloyd Evans than a few choice threads here. The "Patterson" thread is one of my favourites as you can see how his mind works when it is being praised (as it was in the beginning of the thread) to the petty snark when he is challenged and finally the insane and vengeful rantings of a deranged mind who feels humiliated. Read it - it's poetry in motion. As the thread progresses you can just picture the manner which his Cheetos-stained fingers diabolically hit the keys:
https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/240181/patterson-on-line-watchtower-claims-that-paying-cash-bond-would-cause-immediate-irreparable-harm-hardship?page=26
To make a long story short, he met more than his match in slimboyfat and was losing his mind over the fact that he couldn't bully him into silence. Shortly before getting him banned for claimed "threats", he had this to say:
[edit post: I might add that I would be perfectly happy to apologise to you for any insults I've used toward you, but until you apologise for all the hurt and distress you've caused to my wife and I - which you've had numerous opportunities to do - those insults seem fully justified.]
Now if this doesn't sum up what goes on in Lloyd's mind regarding apologies and whether one is owed or not, then I don't know what does. Whilst indirectly acknowledging that he insulted sbf, he intentionally withholds the apology, claiming his insults were justified until him and his wife were apologised to! Again, always claiming attacks against him are "causing distress" to both him and his wife.
I think I've solved the "who deserves an apology" riddle going on in his head in the present day. Since he views Kim's revelations as a violation comparable to being "burgled at gunpoint", first he needs an apology and full retraction from her before he can extend any to the community (not Kim, he's never forgiving her) for his subsequent destructive actions. Even then, it's one that comes with several conditions - primarily that the apologee acknowledges that Lloyd was wronged first and he was justified in attacking the community like he did.
So hey. Sorry! (sort of, but I feel violated by even saying sorry as you did this to me first and it was way worse than anything I could have ever imagined doing to you)
A few posters brought up on another thread their dismay that Lloyd had gotten two posters banned. This was his response, and it's vintage Lloyd:
For the record, though I'm not in mourning that Slimboyfat was banned, I'm not exactly thrilled about it either. I valued his opinion on subjects where he wasn't simply trying to get under my skin. And as for NN, I find it extremely regrettable that he isn't here anymore, particularly since I also enjoyed his posts and prior to his outbursts in the aftermath of Oompa's death I had no problem with him at all. I sincerely hope that both posters will be back on this forum at some point in the not-too-distant future.Link here: https://www.jehovahs-witness.com/topic/224316/just-me-jwn-going-through-nice-phase-moment?page=7

I do generally feel bad for Dijana because it appears she is a victim in all this.
I don't. I know it sounds harsh but she's had months, almost a year to ponder her husband's continuing antics, personality and his behaviour towards others. It actually goes back further to when she caught him sexting months after their wedding. She gave him a second chance, a third, a fourth, who knows how many. And it sounded like even after Thailand he had another chance. It took him a couple months back to start asking out Instagram models, the London dating event, and countless other attempts to seduce women who are not his wife.
Does she still not get it? He doesn't want her.
People get divorced, split up, and move on from one another all the time. Nobody owes her a happy ending. The only thing she's owed is child support and quite possibly spousal support in a marital termination agreement. It should be clear to her by now that Lloyd Evans's business strategy is built on sand and relies in no small part upon his reputation which he is continually tarnishing. I wouldn't gamble my family's future on the way he conducts his business.
Did she not read his last statement to Kim? Her husband put out a public statement saying he'll spend the next 40 years of his life going after Kim. Is she OK with that? Is she OK with her children bring a part of all this self-destructive behaviour? If so, then fuck her. She's a part of the problem and an enabler.
I hope not. I hope the beach pic she appeared on a week after those threats against Kim was just a well-intentioned if a bit misguided attempt to keep the peace in the family and provide the children some semblance of normalcy on their father's birthday. I hope she insisted on separate sleeping arrangements at the hotel considering her husband is now living as a single man and is a known punter.
But there's only so far one can go in regard to sympathy for her.

I still love the photo he used for that speed dating fiasco. It never ceases to make me laugh. Of all the pictures.
The funniest part is he cropped Mark O'Donnell and the Warwick facility out of his profile pic. Imagine that. A pic taken whilst filming the TTATT documentary that he's now removed from with a friend who has withdrawn his support publicly and criticised him. He had been living in Zagreb as a single man for two months at the time and this was the best selfie he had? One from 2019 at that. He went full incel.

He’s probably the same way at McDonald’s.
”Sir this Big Mac looks nothing like the one in the picture. You might try including a disclaimer that not all Big Macs are the same. If the Sisak McDonald’s doesn’t believe in truth in advertising, then they stand to lose the business of the Evans family in perpetuity”

The thing about his girls is that they both have the initials "JLE" like their father. Both have fully English names even though they are living in and are going to school in Croatia. Croatian is actually their dominant language and only speak English when their father is around.
So... not a thought on honouring their Croatian heritage and giving them a name in their own language? For someone who is always virtue signaling that he's an egalitarian and supports the empowerment of women, it seems that their children's names do not reflect anything related to their mother. It's a common thing in Western society to name a child with elements from both parent's backgrounds.
Jessica has the middle name of "Liberty" and this was stated at the time to represent both parents' freedom from leaving the Jehovah's Witnesses. Since "Liberty" is not a name, this stands out. These names stick with them their entire lives. Did he really think of when Jessica got older and asked about her middle name, she'd have to relate that before she was even born, both her parents disassociated from Jehovah's Witnesses and this is why she is named that way? Shouldn't he want to keep the girls away from anything relating to their parents' JW past?
Julia's middle name is after Lloyd's mum Lesley. This is fine and appropriate as this is a family name of someone who was so influential to their father, so I know he understands the importance of doing so. It's just that there is nothing in their names that connect those two girls to their mother and her side of the family. They even got his initials.

So what exactly was the problem?
There's a bit of background as to why he was so keen on his daughter's musical talent. In short, he believes he's a talented musician and vocalist and his daughter has inherited this immense talent. He's sometimes referred to himself as a "singer/songwriter". Here's a post of his from exJW Reddit some years ago in response to a question as to whether there were any exJW musicians out there:
In case the screenshot is fuzzy, here's the copy/paste from it:
Some people say that I am an amazing vocalist. I have at least one fan of my singing in the Scottish highlands. I can also play the guitar, drums, and harmonica. Last year I wrote the hit song "Good Things, Bad Things," which proved so successful I was asked to play it in a warehouse in Belgium with other people present.
So much to dissect from those relatively few sentences. First he attributes his "amazing vocalist" compliments to unspecified others so as to not look like he's bragging. Then there's at least "one fan" of his in a remote section of Scotland! After specifying which instruments he can play, he describes the song he put out of YouTube as a "hit song" and successful. So much so that he played it in a warehouse in Belgium!
His vocals are BAD. His pitch is mediocre at best and his nasal drawl permeates the entire song. Listen for yourself if you dare. "Good Things, Bad Things" and "We Are The Slave" are still available on his YT channel.
