Promoted to Manager. Of their own business. Always makes me laugh.

bossbabebot - Nod received.

Who said that these are healthy human beings?

Cozie, thats made me chuckle . I bet theres a lot of bitching behind the scenes though. Would love to be a fly on the wall.

They hate each other Annie - you can see it their eyes. We have lots of friends who we truly love ( well I do) but I don't spend my time posting 'go hunz' 'you are amazing hunz' 'what would I do without you hunz' type posts - tbh I haven't spoken or seen my best mate over half term but I know she has my back and I have hers.....

I'd be very interested to hear from any exbots about how they got involved with an MLM. Who got you interested, why did you think it was a good idea, what was going on in your life at the time? Also, how were you encouraged to recruit people? Do you have any evidence like screen shots or books you were recommended?

I'm doing a blog post on how people get sucked into these schemes. I'm going to include research, theories, expert opinion, but I think if I intersperse it with real stories it will make for a better read.

Either PM me here or send things to Bot Watch please. I won't print your name.

I'm hoping to make the whole process understandable and help prevent future victims.

And I'm not doing it to sell protein bars.

toobusy what not even to sell pp-bars (protein du parslai?) 😉

Logic would dictate that there would be a certain amount of envy, incredulity and bitching at such seemingly meteoric rise of certain bots and not others, but as we know, logic goes out of the window when it comes to mlm scams.

I bet a lot of the bots there genuinely believed he got where he is by strictly adhering to the duplicatable plan and that their success is just around the corner.

It's devilishly clever and abhorrent in equal measure.

ATTENTION HOT OFF THE PRESS

new pictures of this past weekend's debacle

It might be useful, Too, to also do something - with input as above - on just how people got out. Or is that to be a separate piece?

Boss,

boss

There is an awful lot of jealousy and bitching and congratulations through gritted teeth. I have seen it first-hand, then the people who are jealous start to put a lot of pressure on their downline who are perceived not to be pulling their weight. As it is actually in Forever's terms and conditions that you can't diss another business owner, all this bitching goes on covertly amid passive aggressive comments, false sentiments of praise and fake congratulatory smiles. A very healthy atmosphere indeed

Do they do no the no cross lining thing in forever? So no talking about the business cross line at all?

The reason I ask is that you wouldn't be able to bitch behind someone's back because you can't talk about the business or show negativity cross line, you definitely can't show negativity downline because then your team would have doubts, so that only leaves your upline, who would kick your a**

You gnaw your own fingers in the wee small hours, I guess.

Interestingly, the online shop of one eminent MLM has been 'reformatted' - almost overnight it seems - and the names of 'Business Owners' are no longer displayed.

The cross line thing is more of an unofficial rule in Forever I think-people get very precious about their teams and don't like them exchanging business tips or help with cross line people. Officially everyone is supposed to help each other but unofficially people are far too competitive. Lower cross line bots will befriend and help each other but are usually discouraged from this by their high-up bot uplines. And yes, you are only supposed to express doubts and bad feelings to your upline, never your downline #keepingupappearances. It's a pressure cooker tbh

Wow this thread moves fast, I never quite keep up to comment! At my last count I had 5 fb friends who are bots. 3 I couldn't care less about, 1 I'd tell straight to bog off and we'd still be mates and finally new bot who I wish I could save but she's all into this fl nonsense suddenly. Sadly for her her launch party is already down one attendee and two potential victims as I gave them a full and frank lowdown on why they are not supporting a friend by buying any stuff. Oh and pointed them to timeless vie!

bossbabe love the "success day" photos

All those people ( I guess about 5000) and how many actually get to go up in the stage?

I bet it isn't 5000! Even if it 100 it would mean 4900 have paid to wave flags, whoop and cheer someone they have never and will never meet. Ok you could say that about going to see a band or a comedian but the band etc doesn't make you go and tell you if you don't go you will fail.

And seeing Jenny eclair (other comedians are available) is much more enjoyable than watching strangers being dry humped by other strangers on stage - with floaty bits of shiny shit about - and sashes ( what is it with the fucking sashes? Is it miss world) .......

I was there throwingpebbles ... Just for you chuck

My local FLbot has no mention on success day on her profile I'm really, really surprised. Maybe the end of the road for her?
The famous Bots I like to read seem to have altered their pages, can't read as much (look at past posts) some don't seem to post as often & some have blocked access to their pages. I'm highly slightly disappointed. Is this in anyway linked to these threads?

I'm totally sure fleebee that the 'famous' bots are having to be much more careful now due to the harsh light of truth this thread, bot watch and tc has shone on them.

But they've not all been so careful with their older FB posts, head back about a year and you'll find some great stuff where they clearly didn't think they needed to only tell the truth.
