For the benefit of Vegodoll, the above comments are direct quotations from the appendix of George Orwell's 'Nineteen Eighty-Four,' I've just inserted the 'MLM Newspeak.

Just going to leave this here....

Melaw21 · 23/02/2016 14:27

because

FLhahaha · 23/02/2016 14:28

Melaw that meme is fab! Maybe 'then you found out I was lying....' to be slightly larger or bolder, or different colour maybe? I had to look to see it (which I know is the point, but we maybe want it to be a bit more obvious?). But I think it is brilliant - it gets exactly the point across. Maybe a series 'What if I told you you could earn a good income working 15 hours a week around your family.........and then you found out you had to pay to attend training sessions miles away at the weekend'

'What if I told you about this fab new product............that is so fabulous I seem to want lots of other people to compete with me to sell it'

Mine aren't as good as yours!

VegoDoll · 23/02/2016 14:28

Go and email Mumsnet, they will confirm that I am not the other two people who replied on this thread.

Melaw21 · 23/02/2016 14:31

The other 2? funny that, I said 1... Freudian slip vego ? Easy enough to run different spoof email accounts and dynamic ip's though isnt it, c'mon now... 🙄🙄

bossbabebot · 23/02/2016 14:31

Ah --- a tag team then vego?

VegoDoll · 23/02/2016 14:32

melaw not to worry I just reported your post.

Hoping Mumsnet comes along to confirm I am not the same person as the other two "MLM bots"

I don't care if you don't like what I have to say. I am going to say it anyway.

This thread seems very "cult like" .

Melaw21 · 23/02/2016 14:32

Especially useful tactic for a bot to learn if they are getting booted from selling groups all the time for recruiting no? Just sayin...

Eyespying · 23/02/2016 14:32

The point which VegoDoll has missed, is that these two amoral, jargon- spouting commentators might as well be the same.

Melaw21 · 23/02/2016 14:33

Bahaha reported my post for what? You said we were like racists? Do you think I didnt already report you?

FLhahaha · 23/02/2016 14:34

Vego would you mind answering a question for me? How do you keep on top of who is who in your 5000 downline, and what they are doing? I have watched lots of MLM training videos but to be honest I haven't found a lot of 'practical' training - such as I use that computer programme, this filing system, this calendar reminder, etc.

ambler21 · 23/02/2016 14:34

seriously the amount of people I have had message me about this 'helpful' thread in the last few days
Wonderful!
Don't bother answering any of their questions they will only drain you. They are not genuinely interested in what you have to say
Couldn't agree more

VegoDoll · 23/02/2016 14:35

There HAVE been two people on this thread, one called "can't" and "couldn't" on this thread. I don't know of any others or would you like me to screenshot the emails I've been sent? One of them being from can't. Or is it possible to email yourself on Mumsnet nowadays?

As for tag teaming you people crack me up.

I have been on Mumsnet a good few years and I'm not childish to do something like "get back up".

Melaw21 · 23/02/2016 14:36

So basically vego, you and your cronies, come here and insult everyone and post incredibly offensive statements, we respond and because you dont like that we disagree you cry foul? How do you know whst colour the posters here are? Do you not think your post was way more offensive? Likening these thread arguments to systemic racism? Do me a favour...

shadowplay · 23/02/2016 14:36

Veto - it's hard to know where to start. Seriously, did you just compare people on this thread, who are asking perfectly legitimate questions about a business that is proven to churn through millions off loss-making investors every year, to racists.

It would be funny if it wasn't so contemptible.

All we have ever asked mlmers to do on this thread is to provide proof and facts that support your contention that this is an ethical business that many normal people (not shills) succeed at. You have been unable or unwilling to do that and when called out on it have chucked your toys and left, or resorted to insults.

Now, you've stooped to a new low and compared us to racists.

At the risk of coming across as a hypocrite, given my comments about you insulting people, you are a massive cockwomble.

VegoDoll · 23/02/2016 14:36

Great copying and pasting there Amber.

sminkypink · 23/02/2016 14:37

To compare attacking an mlm to racism, wow, just WOW.

I'm bowing out of this as I know that it's just not helpful to engage anyone who is in a cult in the way that we are doing. It can drive them deeper in and thats not what we want. Because their minddsetted cult persona doesn't think she is in a cult. So it can be very distressing and it will feel like a horrible personal attack. it will just confirm what the minsdset training has taught, that the outside world is baying idiots, stupid people who just don't understand the 'opportunity'

So, for me, there's no point. I don't want to cause more harm, I don't want to attempt to engage with people in this way. And a bulletin board isn't the best place to do it.

So I'm bowing out. I'm going to concentrate where I know it is working. And I'm going to continue studying - mlm books, books on cults etc, listening to the trainings, paying attention in the various groups, learning all that I can.

See you on Facebook Parslai Princesses xxxx

Eyespying · 23/02/2016 14:37

VegoDoll now says MN threads are 'cult-like.' Laughably, back in the threads, I believe I predicted that a cult propagandist would soon make exactly this reality-inverting false accusation.

shadowplay · 23/02/2016 14:37

vego it should have said.

Patzy85 · 23/02/2016 14:39

eyespying you did say that, it was just a matter of time.

VegoDoll · 23/02/2016 14:39

Attacking people who are in MLM, and getting nasty when they attack back....

Yep, I would say that is pretty much how racism goes down.

MimsyPimsy · 23/02/2016 14:40

Vego - I did ask a question a few pages back, but you never gave an answer. I was interested in the way you apparently quickly achieved 5000 downlines. Some people fail, and others succeed, in recruiting, and I was interested in how you succeeded. Did you already have a blog/website with high traffic, and then you converted that traffic to downlines?

ambler21 · 23/02/2016 14:42

Agreed sminky back to the research.
