Yes it would have, Jay. I don't know why they even have the 'private' option, especially now that we know the Order supposedly doesn't even watch the videos. But it would have been more interesting, and it would have added a bit of depth to the characters if they could have private volgs, kind of like the individual vlogs and blogs of the PQ characters. I would love to see something like that done with LG, so that we could be privy to the thoughts they don't want to share with each other. That way we could even have secondary story lines come into play. Because right now we just have the one and it can get tiresome. So it could be like, yes they are tracking down the Order in the group vids, but in the private volgs we get to see their thoughts and feelings, maybe they could address the love story/sexual tension thing that is going on. Maybe these could have the filler episodes when all the actors can't get together at once. I just wish they would make use of the private videos, like they said they were going to. Oh and just because I promised this would be a really cool post, I give you...... A goose!  I'm still working on those clickable buttons though! |

ETA: argh, no, it's worse than I thought. I should have been a private video, which is what it started out as, but now it's public. Thanks creators--JUST when I thought you were going to bother to use the PRIVATE feature for the FIRST time (and no, I'm not counting those Order videos because I'd rather pretend they NEVER existed). Hahaha, I do too. I never watched them. I read the transcripts and said, you know what, I'm going to pretend this just didn't happen. You can safely watch those now, actually. They're not any worse than Jules's blogs or any of the new videos since "We Found Julia". When they move away from this story arc (should happen in another couple of videos), I'll pretend these didn't happen either. This whole "pretending away" those videos and arcs that we don't like kinda gives me an idea. There are near 200 videos in the series now, right? And it really drags and leaves holes all over the place. We should make "LG15, Anchor Cove edition". And by make I mean just put together a list of the videos that we would leave in. On the cutting room floor you'd probably be left with "I Completed The Ceremony", "I Lied To Daniel", all the Op, Tachy and Bro stuff that won't have any closure anyway, Human Ransom, the kidnapped in Vegas thing, and all this Jules garbage. Oh wait, that's most of the series right there... still leaves some material, most notably the Alex videos and such. ETA: Good thing you threw us a bone, elixir. I'm really frustrated that your buttons aren't up yet and I was just about to walk away. Forever. Close call, but I do like the goose so I think I'll stay. |

Close call, but I do like the goose so I think I'll stay. Yes, the goose has taken my posts in a whole new direction. It was actaully much more adult than all other previous posts, with much more interaction. So you can look forward to more of this in the future. I think you will like it!  |

What the heck is up with the Creators? WHY institute the revolutionary PUBLIC/PRIVATE thing in all your videos if YOU ARE NEVER GOING TO USE IT. This is just one of at least a couple videos (mainly Order ones) which SHOULD have been private and only makes sense to be, and yet it's public. I can't fathom why they'd actually make this one private and then REVERT it, it's totally insane.

Hye and Jay, surely you are not trying to get me spun up again on THE dreaded topic  . |

Title changed to "Aiding and Abetting." Status changed to "Public." Jonas changed to "Bailing." Milo's funds changed to "Dwindling." That's funny they changed the title, I pointed out that mistake on the LG15 forum, I think the second page of the thread.  lonelygirl15.com/forum/viewtopic.php?t=10049&postdays=0&postorder=asc&start=15 Hye and Jay, surely you are not trying to get me spun up again on THE dreaded topic . Yes, I remember that dreaded topic well, I was already exhausted arguing that question by the time you started that thread, so I didn't have much to add.  |

Grrrr, here we go..... It's not like even two knuckleheads like Slainte and I couldn't keep track of the POV issues. Even whilst hammering down ultra-yummy Troegenators (Alcohol by Volume: 8.2%, Yeah!), failing miserably to hit on jaded cocktail servers, and waxing poetic about how we are wasting our precious middle-age on this nonsense. We could easily do that AND determine who the hell should see what video. I just don't get how this is that difficult to keep track of... |

All this talk about typos and changing the title has me a little confused. While my spelling is hideous I do have a pretty fair oral vocabulary (ok ok grow up!). I had thought the word Abiding was intentional. Aiding and abeting is a common phrase. I thought they intended the pun in Aiding and Abiding| The following is from Websters On-line www.m-w.com/dictionary/abiding | 1 : to wait for : AWAIT
2 a : to endure without yielding : WITHSTAND b : to bear patiently : TOLERATE <cannot abide such bigots>
3 : to accept without objection <will abide your decision>
intransitive verb
1 : to remain stable or fixed in a state
2 : to continue in a place : SOJOURN
synonym see BEAR, CONTINUE
- abid·er noun
- abide by
1 : to conform to <abide by the rules>
2 : to acquiesce in <will abide by your decision>

maybe that's a little too "high brow" |

Slainte,
Yes, trainer pointed out that "aiding and abiding " was a somewhat common phrase after I suggested that it was a mistake and someone else pointed out that it might be an intentional play with words, so I had just thought they were right and I was wrong until they changed it, so it appears it was a mistake after all.
