I think we need to spread the word about MLMs wider. If mumsnet can generate 6000 + posts on the matter, it's clearly a subject of interest to many. I don't exclude men's forums either, if they can dissuade their partner from joining/continuing then all the better. Also hopefully increases Google search visibility.

So...
What are big UK Internet chat forums bar mumsnet?
Netmums, Money saving expert... I don't know my chat forums well!

Also need to think of a concise opening post which will capture the interest (and also provide links to the mums net threads). If anyone more eloquent than me can think of good opening lines to start threads on all conceivable chat forums, please help!

BOVNY ..... Try pistonheads!

Bovnydazzlers · 08/02/2016 19:14

Good call. Also will post on single track (cyclist forum)

Melaw21 · 08/02/2016 19:15

And how about some LGBT forums? To spread the word about the support from RM for anti gay causes, also studentroom because students are being targeted, set up, some threads and post the links, happy to spread out and join in!

Melaw21 · 08/02/2016 19:16

Another angle could be the body building, fitness forums?

Melaw21 · 08/02/2016 19:19

And obviously if anyone is on nursing, teaching, policing forums... This stuff is rife in those industries, that will be an absolute priority but it will be more helpful coming from Those already in those sectors I feel...

Lovewineandchocs · 08/02/2016 19:21

Ellie any chance she's just going to sell the products such as essential oils or massage lotion through her business? I know a few people like that with their own salon/premises who are very successful at just retailing as part of their day to day work and don't seem to buy into the brainwashing Grin

throwingpebbles · 08/02/2016 19:27

Totally agree with getting on to other forums to spread the word and also get more attention to Timeless Vie and Bot Watch as their posts are so eye catching and easily shareable with large numbers....

throwingpebbles · 08/02/2016 19:31

Also lots of public Facebook groups where links and posts can be shared eg when someone posted about MLMs on Spotted: Dunstable it got loads of helpful comments and debate

Excellent idea, Cubic.

MrGrumpy01 · 08/02/2016 19:56

NS has gone very quiet, either she isn't posting or is posting on restricted view. She should have moved by now, I wonder if she has. I hope she hasn't, not because we are all jealous haterz but because it was full of some many pitfalls. Trouble is they are surrounded by people who are everlastingly enthusiastic and encourage unwise decisions as it is all part of the plan to becoming a #bossbabe

darceybussell · 08/02/2016 19:59

If you notice MrGrumpy, she has also deleted all previous references to the barn

Motorheadmum · 08/02/2016 20:02

Even after me posting about her beloved Rex this morning which got me deleted from her page my FL bot is still sharing rubbish implying she is going to buy a huge house on her regular profile....

throwingpebbles · 08/02/2016 20:13

Also any forums for the various illnesses Bots claim they can treat/cure?
Would be a really good plan to raise awareness among groups with chronic illnesses etc that are targetted.
My mum is a diabetes specialist and I have been warning her about the people claiming aloe can help and she went away and looked it up and is now horrified. Sent her away to do her own awareness raising Grin

BSintolerant · 08/02/2016 20:17

Was someone from here the author of the hilarious post from the Southport Times which was shared by TV? You know that one comparing ISIS with a notorious pyjama-wearing terror group?

Private Eye or Viz might bite - you never know.

Nope, one of the fans of Timeless Vie sent it in. It's a spoof newspaper in Southport. Totally unconnected to T.V. But tells you all you need to know about how mlm saturation and fatigue is setting in.

DayToDayShit · 08/02/2016 20:34

CS did not eat the toast though

ffs - who even cares what you rammed down your pie chute this morning.
