01) Hello, I'm PJ Taylor. I created the art and concept for The Fims. I'm reaching out to inform this community that FimWest LLC is in the process of being dissolved. However, The Fims project will continue, albeit without Tinashe Nyatanga. Let me explain

32) The Fims project is definitely on life support and I can't guarantee that it will ever fully recover. I can promise that I will try to keep the embers burning, so that, hopefully, one day The Fims can rise from these ashes.

31) I have removed Mr. Nyatanga's access to official project spaces on Discord and Twitter, as well as access to his company email account, meaning any future messages will be coming from someone other than him.

30) I seriously doubt that I would be allowed to post this message to his private group (as Mr. Nyatanga and/or his mods must approve new posts), so I'm posting here instead.

29) the path forward for The Fims project is currently very fuzzy, but I am committed to trying to salvage something out of this awful mess.

One of Mr. Nyatanga's responsibilities to the project was to manage online spaces, such as Discord, Twitter and his private Facebook group

28) However, since the start of 2023, I have spent most of my time just trying to get him to respond to my calls and messages, and trying to make sense of his excuses. Now, in light of Mr. Nyatanga's alleged behavior outside of FimWest and his subsequent removal from the project,

25) I very much still want to see The Fims become something great. For the past year-plus,I have been working tirelessly to try and put The Fims project in a better place, from endless phone calls and meetings,

24) Now, I am in contact with our VR partners to see if there is any path forward for The Fim Adventure Park demo experience at all, let alone any plans for a Fim-branded metaverse.

Although I am in the process of severing all financial and business ties with Mr. Nyatanga,

14) I still want to hold out hope that these allegations aren't true, but given the discrepancies between what he told me and the text screenshots that I have viewed of his conversation with the 'client', as well as his unwillingness to renew contact...

13) Prior to being informed of these allegations, I never would have guessed that Mr. Nyatanga was capable of such behavior. Perhaps it's a personality fault of mine that I want to believe the best in people.

12) and associated behavior by Mr. Nyatanga previous to my very recent contact with the aforementioned 'investigator'.

On a personal note, I considered Mr. Nyatanga to be a friend. I feel extremely hurt and betrayed by his alleged behavior and seeming untruthfulness.

02) I was recently contacted by an 'investigator' who, on behalf of a client, claims that FimWest co-founder Tinashe Nyatanga entered into an agreement to make crypto investments with funds from said 'client' on September 2020 and February 2021 (well before the formation of...
