Dear Fans,

Tensions have been high in the Lonelygirl15 world. We would like to clarify a few things that have recently come up. First off, Yousef Abu-Taleb is NOT being fired from the show. The character of Daniel is still very much a part of Lonelygirl15. Secondly, we have NOT "gone corporate." To the contrary, we are almost completely out of money. We are still financing Lonelygirl15 out of personal savings and maxed out credit cards. The little money that we do have goes to pay for the actors and the few items needed to film the videos (P. Monkey eats a lot of bananas). Why are we still doing this? For you. We care as much about this show and this new medium as you do, and we are doing our best to keep it going. You might see some banner ads and Google AdSense popping up. We're gonna make some T-Shirts. We'll also be producing some DVD's. All we want to do is create a FANTASTIC show to entertain you.

Thank you for watching!

Miles, Mesh, Greg, Amanda, Vanessa, Jessica, Yousef, Jackie, Kevin

ok, um. If you need money to keep it going, make a donate button with a paypal account on your site. No pressure. It's "fan suggested" so I can't complain you are going corporate.

This is pretty confusing.

This is actually a pretty good idea.

Unfortunately, Kas, no one wants to hear it, apparently. People want to complain and vent, and while that's fine, the voice of reason (ie, wait and see, hear both sides) isn't popular.

I completely agree with you. I don't support this decision either, but I'd like to know why it happened, and I'll keep watching the series...
yea really..people need to just breathe and stop fighting with each other. One reason I have stayed with this board was I liked the fact that we were all pretty resepctive of each others options and wild speculations. if your pissed thats fine, however I would say waiting to see what comes of all this is probably the most sensible option.

So Yes I believe him way over the creators anyday
At least he is honest to the core (for anyone that has never read hisMysp Blog you will not understand)
He is a genuinely nice and clever guy
I dont want to get in a fight here or take the side of the creators but but your saying you believe him over the creators when the creators haven't even taken a stance yet.

If this is part of the story all along that Dan would get killed then while surprising and kind of a downer, I’d be willing to see where this goes. I always thought that the story needed a body count and that was part of the problem of only having the two main characters.
If this was the plan all along the surely Yousef would have been told this nearer the begining rather than now?
maybe, maybe not

So I obviously made those posts before I read their comment. Now having read it I'd say that alot of people owe alot of people apologizes.

Yousef is currently logged into myspace. I'm eager to see if he makes any statement about the whole mess.

RE the creator's post:

Maybe I'm crazy (or cheap?), but when the vidoes are readily available and downloadable on the net, why would people invest in DVDs?

They better have some superb special features. :P
