It doesn't look like he was treated with dignity himself though... so why should he?
How do we know that? We don't. He didn't even say why he was fired, etc...we don't know enough to start claiming things like this. Sure, it may be true...but it's also likely it's NOT true.

If yousef wasn't permitted to post about his firing on his myspace, they should have told him. which they didn't, i suspect. it was his decision.

Again, though...nothing indicated anyone told him what he could or couldn't do...that is stuff we've made up on conjecture. This is why people need to post what really happened...to end this conjecture.

That's quite a reach. We have no idea what the circumstances of his dismissal were. As an actor, though, you have to be prepared to be dismissed for any number of reasons that in any other profession may seem very trite. Yes, they may have fired him because he doesn't look right or doesn't have the capacity to show the range of emotion required...but that is part of the acting "business". If you can't roll with the punches, you can't expect to ever be hired again. And threatening the integrity of a project by discussing your position in a public forum before letting the project run it's course is, to me, definitely not rolling with the punches.

all true. we lg15 fans run at a much faster speed than PR folks can usually respond to. i'm sure the creators would like to respond in some way, but they can't just post random comments around the phorum, it has to be somewhat formal. and maybe they will listen to us too, they're not evil . ... . or ARE THEY? haha.

It's said that since months ago. It was likely written before LG even started.

Does it say when he wrote that? It could be anything...with him being an aspiring actor and in film school, etc.
*edit* D'oh, nevermind...HyeMew already answered.
