MLM Bot Watch 17- chat about Utah based tragicomic cultastic racketeering scamalangadingdongs like Forever Living, Ariix, Herbalife, Younique, Juiceplus etc etc etc

[Toobusytowee]

A brief history of the threads so far-

A few people were bemused at their friends' strange personality changes when they joined MLMs.
Eyespying told us they were tragicomic, thought stopping cultic racketeers.
We told him to go away, he was clearly obsessed, and can he go to his own serious thread?
We delved a bit deeper into the issues.
Eyes started creeping back. We told him he was too serious.
We became more horrified at the information being turned up and were sharing links.
Eyes told us aboutMerchants of Deception.
Timeless Vie was set up as a parody about MLMs.[[www.facebook.com/timelessvie
Facebook,]] Twitter, blog, Instagram and YouTube were all used.
People started coming forward, telling of their experiences in MLMs.
We became more horrified.
Bot Watch started on Facebook where links were put up of interest to do with MLMs.
Botwatchblog started and produced factual analysis of the discussions from MN.
MLM members (bots) waded in saying it was all ok. You can earn great money. You just have to work 19 hours a day and not worry about morals.
Bots complained about their names being used. Their lawyers complained to MNHQ so that MN now do not allow us to use bots' names or show screengrabs of their writings even if it is in the public domain.
Blogs and FB posts increased, with the increasing amount of facts and whistleblowers coming forward.
FL lawyer tried to get TV YouTube video banned.
Bots claimed we were bullying them because we were asking them questions they couldn't answer. we were called middle aged women and accused of being drug dealers.
It got a bit nasty so we ate some cheese for a bit and they went away.
Health claims from FL bots now reducing dramatically as a result of pestering from all of us.
We stopped telling Eyes he was too serious. We all started thinking in his language and realised he was right.
Eyes turned out to be very funny and entertained us all.
Sunday Times article produced exposing FL. With a little help from people here.
Lawyers still persisting in trying to ban TV's videos.

Some links of interest-

Ha ha Twunk! Don't you know that you get what you want? You clearly want to be wrapped. The universe has responded to your vibrations.

You say it, Toobusy!

You are all bastards

Heck people, that's some threads .. Keep swinging in and trying to catch up.
Just announcing ....my collection of Local FL bots are all extremely quiet ATM - very strange as they're normally going batshit with motiv memes / quotes. Hmmmmm.
Waiting for the c9 hashtag deluge post Easter..... I said (shouting loudly) I'm waiting for c9 hashtags!!
Big welcome to all the delurkers.

Perhaps one or two are thinking about jumping ship?

To a newer shiinier shiip perhaps???

Could be.

Also FB stalked some of their team and same tumbleweed blowing on there. No promotions, no quotes, no recruitment guff, no, nothing, nada, zilch.

Remind me. If one were to jump ship, that wouldn't necessarily mean taking a team as well would it?

I stand abashed, throwing. My spelliing has gone all to pot.

Maybe everything is secret squirrel these days...

No, the team members would have to leave individually and join up under old upline in new shiiny company.
Any that don't jump, continue under next upline up.
Hope that all makes sense.

Being secret squirrel won't thwart us ( mwhahaha)

It makes perfect sense - unless anybody decided to seize the opportunity???

What do you think it means when a bot who previously posted several times a day, inspirational memes, baby posed with products, launch party of a downline, Monday in pjs etc, suddenly goes quiet for 3 weeks?

Lots of activity in the opportunity company group I have been added to. Including one asking hairdressers if they knew exactly what was in the products they have been using...

My bot used to be very active but nothing recently except some nice family pics which I liked and commented on (she is a friend of mine from a while back). Not sure what's going on there. She did recruit her sister, a trainee nurse, just before she went quiet. The plot thickens.

gotta many ideas spring to mind
~ run out of money so stopped(be wary may go batshit again with new cash injection)
~ jumped ship ( keep your eyes peeled for new company)
~ moved onto other social media ( involving live streaming)
~ seen the light!! Done a (metaphorical) runner from company so may be embarrassed by previously going batshit.
~ building up for a big relaunch (yawn, again)

The new TV post is like the best evvvaaaaah!

*Motorhead

They look to be actively targeting people who work in or own salons, boutiiques, gymns or spas. (There's a whole website section about it.)

It's going to be interesting to see how eg hens, people having their hair done etc are approached.

I wish my bots would shut the fuck up go quiet, they'll all still lifestyle coaches and wittering on about how they have space for just 3 more people in their team this month. Tumble weed on the interaction on their posts fortunately.

One posted this gem tonight.

Great TV post

.....by design, there are always more than enough worms.....

Oh Dear. It rather shows how distributors view their 'customer/prospect base' doesn't it?

Has anyone noticed that that poor skincare product with the unfortunate spelling has been dropped to bottom of the heap?

I wouldn't be investing any hard-earned in that, that's for sure.
