Wife just took a peek at twitter and said his last two posts were about his girls. Of course he's gonna parade them around when he's not getting attention any other way. What a horrible father, we're childfree by choice but even we know that kids aren't props and they especially need privacy when it comes to social media these days.

@Vintage Sorry, must have overlooked it. Usually I pop in and out of this page while working so don't always read every comment... The wife is on twitter and saw the story and happened to mention that Lloyd said nothing about it while everyone else was sharing the heck out of it so I tacked it on here. Didn't mean to offend.

Here's another one from a few weeks back, and again another small channel, less than 4K subs:

Seems like he's already gotten an earful in the comment section... I'm realizing maybe Lloyd is doing more damage to himself by being on these channels, giving people an opportunity to call attention to his misdeeds.
Considering the downward spiral of people willing to give him an audience, I'm guessing that pretty soon he'll be calling in to 3 a.m. radio talk shows broadcast from Buttlick, Iowa.

Wife just made the point that we hope it doesn't scare her off from moving forward with her channel. Obviously she's just starting out and the more voices out there, the merrier. As Wally said, good on her for realizing the misstep.
As for Lloyd, since we know you're still reading this thread, this is what you have to look forward to. Maybe you'll get a few interviews here and there but you're seriously done.
And before you have a tantrum, take a step back and think about everything that's been said here... you've bullied other people, shit all over anyone who dared commit the sin of not adoring you, acted like it was a good thing to crap all over places like domestic violence shelters, tried to get your minions to gang up on other activists, and treated your wife like so much rubbish that you didn't care at all how your sick and twisted behavior might affect her.
You ever hear the phrase "fuck around and find out"? You're at the find out stage right now.

Yesterday the Pennsylvania Attorney General announced charges against 4 men for preying on 19 victims of CSA, all defendants and [alleged] victims were JWs. One of the men took his life after being charged:
It's all over Twitter of course but not a peep from Lloyd about it.

LOL ... 1.98K subscribers, less than 1000 views as of now, a day later.
I'm not laughing at her, god love anyone calling out their former religion and any cult, etc.
But if that doesn't show just how far Lloyd has fallen and is nowhere near his lofty goal of being a superstar, household name, beloved anti-cult expert, and whatever else we all know he wanted.

I will bet that the neck beard probably failed to realize that an advance is just that; an advance on future royalties, not an added payment.
In other words, even if a publisher paid him a $1000 advance, he wouldn't receive any royalties until that $1000 was earned from sales (and kept by the publisher to repay the advance).
This page explains it:
https://publishdrive.com/what-are-book-advances-how-book-advances-and-royalties-work
"Royalties are what you get after publishing the book and meeting the advance. So you won't earn any royalties until a book's sales are equal to their advance. This is also called earning out your advance. ... So, let’s say you get $10,000. This means that the book, after publication, will have to make a $10,000 profit. And only after that can the author expect to receive additional income or royalties."

he took his wife and daughter and all the transportation and incidentals such as hotels and restaurants were crowdfunded by local exJWs.
I don't know which is worse, that he's been spending his whole life with his chubby hand out or that so many xJWs have been funding his lifestyle for so long. Seriously, WTF? I had no idea it was that bad. Hey guys, don't worry about feeding your own kids or putting away for your retirement when the CO is on his way into town! Remember,
JehovahLloyd loves a cheerful giver! Be sure to honor him with all your valuable things.Talk about taking people out of the cult but not the cult out of the people.
P.S. I hope you enjoyed it Lloyd because the gravy train is over and you have nothing to fall back on. Sure you have some stragglers but forget about enjoying that lifestyle ever again.
Wife even glanced at his YT channel for some reason this morning and quickly compared views over the years. She said it's definitely on a decline and esp. in the last year since all this came out (she didn't give specifics but she's very analytical so I take her word for it).

since when does a publisher give a random former JW elder an “advance”? Advances are given to celebrities or prominent people for their memoirs.
He's a legend in his own mind... and only his own mind.
Obviously he thought he was going to "blow the lid off" the Watchtower, that his memoir alone would bring down the entire religion.
I remember that little book signing he did at some tiny bookstore... god love them for hosting an event but he was obviously so excited, like people would be lined up around the block to meet him. I thought I heard that literally no one showed except some xJWs that he had asked to arrange it or something?
Anyway, his ego is what got us here to this point. Years of bullying, narcissism, arrogance, entitlement, you name it. It's no surprise that mentality eventually spilled over into his disgusting sex life.

I think it would have been more appropriate if you had started another subject on this discussion board about the GoFundMe account I started for folks to post their opinion on other than this one that never seems to end about the shenanigans of, and controversies respecting Lloyd Evans.
Barbara with all respect to your work, let's not downgrade Lloyd's behavior or question why we're continuing this thread. Lloyd admitted to frequenting prostitutes even while in Thailand, an industry (and country in particular) notorious for not just human trafficking but also child sex trafficking.
What hypocrites would we be if we worked so hard to call out how Watchtower hides CSA in their religion but didn't work to eradicate this cancer in the ex-JW community?
We're sickened by what goes on in the back rooms of the Kingdom Halls but should turn a blind eye to what must go on in the back rooms of brothels?
Shame on elders for abandoning children to abuses but ignore how Lloyd is paying pimps to provide him with women to abuse?
Sorry but I don't see Lloyd's actions as "shenanigans" and "controversies" anymore than I see WT's coverups as mere "shenanigans." We want the world to wake up to Watchtower's abuses; I imagine victims of sex trafficking want others to wake up to their abuses as well.
