A Sad but Important Announcemnt
Added 2015-03-17 15:03:35 +0000 UTCThis isn't the easiest announcement to make, but due to circumstances that none of us are going to get into, Jake will no longer be a part of the site for the foreseeable future. We know people are going to have their questions, and that's understandable, but it is a very private matter and won't be discussed in any further detail. Projects such as The Reviewers, the 80's Dan movie, and a very retooled Shot on Shitteo will still continue. Please respect our privacy in the matter, even though this isn't going to be enough to satisfy everyone's curiosity.

I've been depressed all week. Been a fan of the site since the basement floor set..., (yep) it literally feels like I lost a friend......and I don't have any. Best wishes Jake. It was a MAJOR highlight any time a Jake video was posted. :-\

2015-03-21 22:52:07 +0000 UTCWell, on the off chance that Jake's in jail and is in need of a bail, or his car broke down and he needs to focus on making money to get it running again, financial donations could help with that. I respect Brad for wanting to keep private about Jake's situation, but if financial donations would help him out, I'd help.

2015-03-19 20:12:21 +0000 UTCSorry to hear this. My favorite Midnight Reviews were the ones he was in, because he was honest and always made me laugh. Best wishes to him and the rest of the team. He will be missed.

2015-03-19 02:24:25 +0000 UTCMr Sun finally pushed him too far. Goddamn you, Mr. Sun! But in all seriousness, whatever the reason, I respect your privacy and hope that whatever this whole thing was about, I hope it blows over soon and that Jake's alright.

2015-03-18 05:20:01 +0000 UTCI really enjoyed watching Jake scream at movies. My Saturdays are going to be a lot less rage-filled. Jake, you're reading this, know that you are loved and you DO have fans.
Brin
2015-03-18 04:14:07 +0000 UTCI love Jake. Like, for real, he's the shit. Though I hope that with his /whatever/ we can start to see more Irving. He's also the shit.

2015-03-18 00:02:06 +0000 UTCWill throwing money at the Patreon help bring Jake back? Because I will throw money at the Patreon if it will help bring Jake back.

2015-03-17 20:47:48 +0000 UTCThat really sucks, Jake's reviews have always been a lot of fun to watch. I completely understand not going into detail, just hope he and everyone else is okay. And I wish him the best of luck!
Heidi Wempen
2015-03-17 19:12:35 +0000 UTCGod speed Jake. I don't know what's going on, but I hope that everything works out for you. I'm sure going to miss watching you bitch about terrible children's movies.

2015-03-17 18:15:42 +0000 UTCThis news make me very sad because Jake is one of my favourite Team Snob members and I've pretty much always enjoyed his movie reviews :( But, of course, I respect your privacy (of both of you) and won't ask questions about this.

2015-03-17 17:43:14 +0000 UTCNot the best news to wake up to. I wish Jake the best.
Nick Michalak
2015-03-17 17:26:42 +0000 UTCWell that is crappy I how that whatever is going Jake is alright and he can return at a future date.
Lbofun
2015-03-17 16:33:48 +0000 UTCWell, that's depressing. Hopefully all's well with Jake, and he returns one day, hopefully in a gloriously appropriate manner.

2015-03-17 16:21:37 +0000 UTCThis sucks but thank you for letting us know. Whatever the situation is, I wish him the best.
LydiaHyde
2015-03-17 16:06:21 +0000 UTCThat's really sad to hear. He was one of my favorite members of the site. I hope it was nothing super serious and that he does well with whatever he is doing. Also sad to hear that Shot on Shiteo is going to be changed now because of it since I was looking forward to his parts in it.
Bill Murphy
2015-03-17 15:58:21 +0000 UTCI really hope whatever the situation is that Jake is doing well.
Joshua Chap
2015-03-17 15:53:46 +0000 UTCDamn. That sucks. I wish Jake all the best.
Andrew Green
2015-03-17 15:53:31 +0000 UTCThis sucks big time :c he was my favorite member of the midnight screenings
Rob
2015-03-17 15:51:00 +0000 UTCThat is such a shame. In some ways he was one of the best parts of the site.
Tom Williams
2015-03-17 15:46:46 +0000 UTCTwo questions which I hope are vague enough that I am being respectful to your right to privacy. I apologize if that is not the case. Was the parting amicable and is it likely permanent? :(
Marco Buhagiar
2015-03-17 15:42:53 +0000 UTCThis is a definite blow, bro. :(
Mr. Obligatory
2015-03-17 15:40:36 +0000 UTCWow. This sucks. I definitely hope Jake is ok, health & safety are the most important thing. I'll miss seeing him on the site, but I wish him the best in whatever's going on.
Tyler Mawdsley
2015-03-17 15:35:52 +0000 UTCThis is sad news indeed. I always liked Jake, especially in Midnight Heat. He will definitely be missed. :(
Chris Greenaway
2015-03-17 15:27:02 +0000 UTCOh no. I'm very, very sorry to hear that. Sad to see him go, and sincerely hope everyone at team Snob is doing okay despite whatever may have occurred. Take care of yourselves. T
Tony Chittenden
2015-03-17 15:17:15 +0000 UTCWow... I guess the only proper thing I can say is his contribution will be missed. I wish everyone the best in dealing with this private situation.
