Cyndago announces their disbandment and the death of Daniel Kyre

''Hello everyone. We have some very important and tragic news regarding Cyndago and our future.''

''It is with heavy hearts that we inform you that Daniel was found in his room on the afternoon of September 16th in critical condition after an apparent suicide attempt. He was rushed to the emergency room and transferred to the intensive care unit. Family was notified and flew to Los Angeles to be by his side. Doctors confirmed that he had suffered irreversible brain damage and would not survive.''

He was taken off of life support on Friday, September 18th, 2015. Surrounded by his family, Daniel passed away in peace.

''We would like to announce that Cyndago will no longer carry forward. We have no plans to release any further videos, podcasts, or songs. We will release one final vlog addressing the current situation.''

''If anyone out there experiences suicidal thoughts or is battling anxiety/depression, we urge you, please seek help. You are worth more than you think, and suicide reaps massive effects upon everyone around you - your friends, your family, and everyone's life who you touched. There is always hope. There is always tomorrow.''

''We would like to thank everyone who stood with us throughout the years. When Cyndago was started in 2012, we never expected to come this far. It's been nothing short of an amazing journey and all of you are loved. You have all changed our lives and we hope that we could make each one of you smile. We're truly sorry that a story that brought so many people happiness had to have such a sad ending. Daniel will live on in our hearts and in the memories of the thousands of people he brought joy to everyday through YouTube. We thank you all. Goodbye.''

- Ryan & Matt

A message from Daniel's father:

''My wife's, his 18 year old sister's and my heart will never mend. We'll never know why this happened. Things were really starting to gel after the short seven months Daniel moved from our home in South Carolina to LA to pursue his dreams thanks to you and the opportunity afforded by Mark Fischbach.''

''On Wednesday September 16th I sent Daniel a text telling him how excited I was for him that things are really looking good with the Markiplier / Cyndago collaboration, the other Cyndago activities and the music he was writing with his guitar (Daniel was a great guitar player). I ended the text asking him "Are you happy?". I never heard back. An hour later I received a call from an LA ambulance asking me if I am the father of Daniel Kyre.''

''We sincerely thank you and Mark for the support and opportunities you gave Daniel. Everyone that came in contact with him loved him and was awed with his multiple talents. Our lives will never be the same. The world will never be the same.''

Markiplier apologizes to SuperMega

Hey guys,

Today I want to update you on what happened between Matt, Ryan, and I. Some people are assuming things that just aren't true and I want to clear the air and apologize that this got out of hand.

''Around June of this year Matt and Ryan decided to quit working for me. The primary reason being that it was difficult to keep the work and the friendship separate. I wasn't prepared to be in that position and often times pushed them too hard. That's putting it nicely. To put it bluntly there were many times where I was just being an asshole.''

''After they quit, Matt and Ryan went on to work for the Game Grumps. This hurt me deeply as, at the time, it seemed to me that they were just trying to get away from me with no apparent reason and I found myself alienated from both of them and the Grumps. Then came a long period of isolation as I was struggling with my own feelings while at the same time trying to keep up with a suddenly expanded workload. If you were wondering why the videos suddenly got off schedule a few months ago and have only just recently started to recover, this is why.''

''But during this whole time I was so focused on my pain that I completely ignored the wrong that I had done that led to this point. It was only yesterday that I finally broke down and saw the "why" of it all clearly. I had forced them away due to my careless criticisms and impossible standards. I was too much of a boss and not nearly enough of a friend to them. I make no excuses, I was in the wrong, and they have every right to work with whomever they choose.''

''Since then I have apologized to both Matt and Ryan and hope that they can forgive me. I wish them nothing but the best in what they do and I recommend you all subscribe to SuperMega for hilarious videos. And it goes without saying but there was never any violence or cruelty on either side, just silence.''

''I feel like I've finally let go of some lingering bitterness that's been haunting me for the past few months. I'm very happy to have Tyler and Kathryn working WITH me and not for me and I hope to take the lessons I've learned from this experience to be a better person going into the future. However, I still needed apologize to you all as well for this unspoken darkness that's been creeping around.''

I hope you all have a wonderful day and thanks so much for taking the time to read this!

-Mark

Markiplier's political views

''I don't talk about politics often. I don't feel like it's my place to tell you how to think in that regard. This channel is a place of entertainment (hopefully) and escape from the chaos that runs the rest of your world. However, i will never shy away from encouraging you guys to better yourselves and the world around you.''

''It's easy to think of yourself as insignificant in the turmoil that consumes the political landscape but there's always more that you can do. You are an essential piece of your community but ONLY if you work towards it. To make change in the world and in yourself takes time, effort, and most of all dedication. It's a commitment that the vast majority of people overlook because they're consumed by the short term. The only thing I have ever wanted is to be a leader to guide you towards something better.''

But I can't hide behind a vague idea of what "better" is so here are a few things that I firmly believe in:

1. No matter who you are; no matter your race, religion, or gender you have the unalienable right to live your life in peace and happiness. 2. Healthcare is a right, not a business. 3. We should leave our children a better world than the one we have now.

''One [of] my favorite quotes of all time and a motto that I live by is, "A society grows great when old men plant trees whose shade they know they shall never sit in." Meaning that we may never reap the benefits of what we do today but we must sacrifice the greed of the now for the betterment of the future.''

''There's always more. Always more to be done, always more to learn, and always more to live. Don't get lost in hopelessness, keep moving forward.''
