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

NEW Link to the Daily Mail article of 20 May 2016 regarding an ex-bot's treatment at the hands of her 'spline' at Forever Living UK

NEW Link to NastashaBarnbotShingles' refutation of the above.

We have our own regularly returning bots to tell us how bullying and hateful we are.

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.

Twunk (AKA ForeverYazoonique) has a bottle of Banana Yazoo in her fridge. She's still too afraid to drink it. Yahoo is important as seems to be the primary retail product for Life Tree World.

Wouldn't it be good if someone invented powdered gin, just add water.

Pretty sure Guinness did an april fool prank newspaper ad where you cut out the ad, rolled it up inside a pint glass then filled it with water to make a 'pint of guinness' Grin

They're brave and steadfast people, aren't they Annie? Smile

I think Barnpot isn't answering the question how much aloe do you have to shift to make £350,000 a year as anyone making that much money would not be shifting much, but have minionbots to shift it for them. You could say Aloe flows downhill

Spongebobette · 23/05/2016 20:52

So does sludge, whatsaldi.

BSintolerant · 23/05/2016 20:55

And shit, that rolls downhill.

MrshumbleJeans · 23/05/2016 21:00

Pound coins roll downhill too...

'I strongly object to the term ‘pyramid’ being used to describe my legitimate business. A ‘pyramid’ scheme involves a single person at the top making the most money in the company, with people on each level below them earning a progressively smaller size of the profits until you get to the entry-level mugs at the bottom. My business is ‘multi-level marketing’ – it is an entirely different setup with people on each tier earning an amount that is relative to their position in the triangular-based layout with the narrowest part at the summit.’

ETMs again, I see. Grin

BSintolerant · 23/05/2016 21:20

Cheese rolls downhill too near Gloucester. Grin

romoca · 23/05/2016 21:38

MrshumbleJeans · 23/05/2016 22:04

Hi romoca nice to see you again 😊

FayKorgasm · 23/05/2016 23:04

Didn't know you were in NL forever my eldest brother is there too.

FBO cousin has jumped ship it appears to another mlm. Lots of cryptic fb memes.

ForeverYazoonique · 23/05/2016 23:36

Beautiful country. Went on a cycling tour there in my younger days.

MrshumbleJeans · 24/05/2016 09:20

Its very very quiet in here....

cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 09:28

For those catching up, here's a link to Timeless Vie.

You might want to read/re-read at least the first two or three pieces including the 'Open Letter' and the new story, from one very brave ex-MLM adherent, of her experiences.

darceybussell · 24/05/2016 09:33

This is from a top US itworks person who was mentioned very briefly on here once before. I didn't realise the top people posted rubbish like this too - maybe in the US can say whatever they like?

Who knew I could take a pill and it would block carbs and fat from being absorbed!

cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 09:48

I just don't know the rules about 'claims' in the US, I'm afraid.

cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 11:26

I'm wondering whether the great banana milk drinking session has taken place yet? Grin

ForeverYazoonique · 24/05/2016 11:45

No Blush

I'm just not that brave

OP posts:
cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 12:41

Hah. Leave it much longer and it will be drinking you!

cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 12:47

One night, in the wee small hours, it will open the fridge door...............

ForeverYazoonique · 24/05/2016 14:58

How do protect myself? Shock

cozietoesie · 24/05/2016 15:02

Just 'enjoy' this thread, Forever. Smile

(If we don't see you posting again, we'll give you a real nice memorial! Grin)

BSintolerant · 24/05/2016 15:06

forever

You need to be firm with your Yazoo. Threaten it; make it clear that if it doesn't get back in the fridge where it belongs (with the cheese and the man in the pink suit) it'll end up in the back of a lorry in a Life Tree World hamper.
