Still going strong here at bot watch HQ on MN!

Previous thread here

Botwatch on Wordpress and on Facebook

Timeless Vie on Wordpress and on Facebook

Eyespeying's Blog aka #manhun, even if he's been banned by MNHQ

Hommetepreneur on Facebook

We have our own regularly returning bots.

Glossary:

Bots: our affectionate name for victims of the MLM racket

MLM: Multi-level Marketing schemes - essentially pyramid schemes that are just legal because you sell a product. Reliant upon constant recruitment despite there not being enough people in the world to go beyond about 12 levels if everyone recruited 6.

Downline/Upline: the people you recruited and those who recruited you (going up and down the pyramid inverted funnel)

Timeless Vie: Parody of MLM schemes (though you might spot one in particular) that also carries out fearless investigative work

Hommetrepreneur: also excellent parody site focussing on the menz

BotWatch: Rather more serious, keeps an eye on what the Bots are claiming next, particularly in reference to health and income claims. Also fearless.

Inverted Funnel: Timeless Vie is NOT a pyramid - it's an inverted Funnel, OK?

Eyes: Our former member Eyespying who knows LOTS about MLM schemes. He's still our very own #manhun.

As always I'm the last to know 😂

ForeverYazoonique · 22/05/2016 23:23

It was Natasha harping on. Hmm

BSintolerant · 22/05/2016 23:25

The thread has gone bananas.

MrshumbleJeans · 22/05/2016 23:27

Oh my god... MNHQ are you planet x denying reptilians? NWO shills? 😂😂

MrshumbleJeans · 22/05/2016 23:28

Oh love I assure you I didnt...

Tragicomical · 22/05/2016 23:28

Lol Natasha doesn't play her charitable efforts? SHE FUCKING BROUGHT THEM UP HERE!!!

Best wishes to your daughter for now and in the future. Bye.

ForeverYazoonique · 22/05/2016 23:28

Maybe we need to join the Zombie apocalypse threads...

MrshumbleJeans · 22/05/2016 23:29

Aha! I think we now know who botfan63 is!

TruthfulTara88 · 22/05/2016 23:29

I'm sorry but why has charity even entered into this conversation? It hasn't got anything to do with what we are talking about. Natasha brought it up to begin with. I don't know what she was trying to prove by saying anything about it. Plenty of companies give to charity and many have been criticised for it.

Anyone remember the sainsburys chocolate bar at Christmas along with the ad showing the soldiers at war? Sainsburys were criticised for that as some people said that they were using charity to bring people into their store... If you go on about how your company gives so much to charity, people will have something to say about it, good or bad.

But whatever. I still don't understand what charity has to do with MLM and what this thread is about.

Tojoinornottojoin · 22/05/2016 23:29

Yawns ..........what the fuck have I missed - oh nothing your (you're) still here bitching about and bullying (yep bullying) people who are trying to make a living. Ta ta nothing interesting to see here !!!!

cozietoesie · 22/05/2016 23:30

Best wishes to your daughter, Love. Smile

DoTheMLMHustle · 22/05/2016 23:31

I quite fancy being sponsored by someone, Aldi would be ok, Waitrose better obviously.

I think someone is drinking too much Aloe

ForeverYazoonique · 22/05/2016 23:32

Oh now the disingenuous tojoin is here - yet again to expose the shocking news that we are anti-MLM!

noyouarenotalifestylecoach · 22/05/2016 23:33

I thought I read that she made over £4,000 in her first month. But she simply didn't work hard enough!

Nolongerconfused · 22/05/2016 23:34

Smoke and mirrors.
They want us to think they know it all. Should see all the "I love you", "you are so wonderful", "haters gonna hate" type posts I am reading.

Oh hello Tojoin! How's it going with tropic forever living made your first million yet?

TruthfulTara88 · 22/05/2016 23:34

Tojoin You joined yet?

You tired? Aloe Vera will help you with that

#NotAHealthClaimPromise

MrshumbleJeans · 22/05/2016 23:35

Haha... forever its all too predictable isnt it! But then, what would we know, we are all involved in a totally secret conspiracy... Or would we know it? I dont even know myself... Someone tell me what the answer is! Is it 42 ????

ForeverYazoonique · 22/05/2016 23:37

The best conspiracy ever - even the conspirators don't know about it.

DoTheMLMHustle · 22/05/2016 23:38

ToJoin we've tried to talk about the bullying but it's too boring apparently.
If you think that talking to someone on this thread is bullying then you need to go back and read the conversations again. I've tried to talk about the bullying experienced by Natasha. Ignoring it won't go away.
It's been done in a workplace setting, it's not something that should be brushed aside

No one here works for me. I can call you all cunts, but you don't work for me, you don't have to live with me doing that to you in your job. That's the difference.

Botfan is the troll we thought she was

prettyusefulsometimes · 22/05/2016 23:41

I knew it!! Do frequent posters get Nectar points - you conniving bastards.

I read or rather skimmed the blog thing earlier today and then went and did some nice things as palette cleanser.

Utter tedious tosh. "Loved" how the medical claims for aloe bit was mentioned in passing then dismissed. I remember ages ago how it was claimed that there was loads of evidence for aloe's medical benefits if only you could be bothered to look. Well I have read a couple of research papers and load of testimonial twoddle and there's feck all to show aloe can do much but give you the squits. If it was so amazing then FL should have used all the money it pissed up the wall in Sth Africa and started some proper trials. My family member still hasn't been offered aloe vera or juice pills or tea capsules or unicorn horns and they're half way through chemo.

So if MLM bots don't like the tone they bring out the bully card, then the charity card, then the conspiracy card - what's next; aliens are making you siphon money into a fundamentalist's piggy bank?

I think Natasha is implying that someone is running the thread to promote Aldi? Confused

Ive totally got that vibe from the 22 threads that have been littered with Aldi references.

Tojoinornottojoin · 22/05/2016 23:44

Please excuse spelling wine and auto correct it's a bitch !

Fake11 · 22/05/2016 23:45

i could add so much to this thread , but that's for another day , but for now I would just like to say Natasha Shingles you state in that article you haven't lost any friends , really ?!?!?!?! You really think that !! You also stated not so long ago that you were helping the homeless but then word was that you publicly on your fb page tried to humiliate someone for losing their home a few years ago , so you openly say for your own ego and to try and make you look good that you felt compelled to help the homeless but then trashed someone who was made homeless !! Amazing concept there !!
