The other members are trying hard not to show they are having a hard time and smiling for the fans…but he keeps posting things that can cause controversy.” “What’s the point of telling this to the fans…” “Nothing good is going to come out of posting something like this. We all know they didn’t receive their money…but we don’t want to know the exact details about how much they didn’t get.” “Isn’t it better to just stay low for now?” “Seriously…he is the only one that keeps attacking IST.” “The lawsuit is probably going to go on for a long time…he must be having a hard time.” “I’m a fan, and I wish he would just stay quiet…even the more popular members who bring in all the money are staying quiet about this.”
