GVH interview is out

https://lowendbox.com/blog/for-immediate-release-the-johnny-nguyen-greenvaluehost-interview/

It's exactly what was expected. Essentially a generic self-criticism and praising the federal prison system to appease the PO. Could have substituted the interviewee for anybody and you wouldn't notice anything odd.

  • It was a cringe fest to read. Absolute idiot for doing what he did, and for agreeing to the interview.

    I think the high point of my arc was when I was able to take out girls who were way out of my league

    Right there near the top and already confirmed, nothing ever really changes.

    I shall not read a word of it, although I wish young Mr Nyugen every success on his road to rehabilitatation.

  • LeviLevi Member

    Well, the questions answered. The main question is answered with one word "no". That's it. I wish a happy day to nuggets at mcdonalds kitchen.

    He was the first hosting provider from whom I purchased when I joined LET.

    What else is there for a young boy, though? I would have been concerned that he was lying if he had answered it differently, but still. Generally speaking... getting caught, and/or going to prison will only make you sneakier, and it can't help you become a better person. You learn to play the system, and you avoid making the same mistakes (by using other people and controlling everything secretly without owning any of it) that got you popped, but your ego still won't let you see that the other guys are just as greedy, and if anything, it ensures that someone is going to snitch on you once they get themselves into a legal mess, or once their coke habit gets out of hand.

    If you're gonna do crime, there's no way you're gonna come out unscathed.

    I truly hope he will make something of himself and live his life like every person should: proudly and knowing that it's never too late to do better. Thoughts and prayers.

    Wow GVH, a blast from the past. It seems like he's learned a lot from his experiences.

    Let's hope so.

    I wish GVH Johnny well and hope he finds real happiness and success in the future.

    Sir, I believe he meant to say, that, as he anticipated, the interview was, to use the vernacular, a load of old cobblers. I trust this clarifies. Toodle-pip, old bean, have a bully day!

    No, it was not. Borring, generic, 0 intimate details. SEO optimized junk.

    Term "seo optimized" means "junk, worthless text, a waste of storage bytes and network packets".

    What did you want then? How many times did he hold someone's pocket or some shit like that?

  • I see 2 things.

    1. I'd give the guy the benefit of the doubt. It's obvious he's trying to be humble and make the right decisions. He's gone through what many of us will never go through. Yes he's made mistakes in the past and he paid his due. It's not like you have to grab beers with the guy or something, you just don't have to be a dick to him.
    2. The hell is the audience/LET community want from this interview? He kept it brief and to the point. He's focusing on self-reflection, what he did was wrong, and then how the prison system changed him and tried to give him opportunities. Love it or hate it, criticize the US prison system however you want, but at the end of the day he's taking a positive outlook and, from what I can tell, he's trying to maintain composure. You then bitch about how this isn't anything interesting or unique.

    I didn't think this interview was a good idea to begin with tbf and I kind of foresaw people will be giving him shit for it. Basically, no real benefit for anyone involved except maybe LEB for the cheap clicks.

    As much as I didn't like the old Johnny, at least have some respect and compassion for someone who, as far as I know or care, paid his due and is trying to change for the better. Thanks for willing to open up Johnny and I wish you well in your future endeavors. Life can sometimes be unforgiving and other people will try and stigmatize your experience, but what's yours is yours and it's a new beginning. There's some great opportunities out there and I wish you well on your Cybersecurity Bachelors degree.

    That's funny because in the real world SEO optimized is the exact opposite.

    I would like to hear his plan for gvh2. Drama! Where is the drama?

    @LTniger said: SEO optimized junk.

    Hardly.

    Everyone outside of the community has long forgotten about GVH - I mean, JN dumped GVH on Duke seven years ago. The only people who'll read the interview is LowEnd vets, so not exactly an SEO winner.

    Really, it was done for the LET community.

    @HalfEatenPie said: As much as I didn't like the old Johnny, at least have some respect and compassion for someone who, as far as I know or care, paid his due and is trying to change for the better.

    I've known several individuals who've served time in prison and went straight after that.
    They were all non-violent offenders without addiction issues. Of course, I've also known people who were bent from the start and never straightened out.

    I certainly wish Nguyen all the best. I'm skeptical because getting ahead is hard, and getting ahead with a felony record and a giant restitution tab is only harder and the lure of some get-rich-quick scam is always going to be out there. I've added him to my daily prayers but I personally won't be extending him credit any time soon.

    TACO FUCKING BELL

    Sir, I am quite sorry, what unnecessary profanity, I am mortified.

    That is to say, I very much enjoyed the delicious Mexican/US fusion cuisine that is Taco Bell.

    I apologise Sir, I am quite beside myself, what ridiculous vulgarity on my part.
