Might I remind people, by the way, that HMRC scrutinise the Yacht Registry! Grin

NorbertDentressangle · 31/08/2016 14:41

Do they look out for telltale yacht names too?

Please tell me that there aren't any of those around! (Or 'special' number plates, house names etc etc.)

Spongebobette · 31/08/2016 15:11

Yes I certainly have noticed that trend Norbert and it's very transparent!

Spongebobette · 31/08/2016 15:15

TV is on fire on Twitter!! Brill!

May I suggest also hash tagging with #networkmarketing as well as #MLM as those who are in one never seem to call it an MLM?

Anyone else ever wonder how all the huns repeatedly doing the c9 never seem to get any slimmer?

forevercrass · 31/08/2016 16:39

Yes they are encouraged to ask questions to gain interaction and traffic to their pages. There's a new FLP app called Social Media manager and there is a section dedicated to this. So they can plan posts way ahead of time.

Watched a video today from a top male bot where he patronises everyone by comparing those that have jumped ship to rotten apples from his apple tree. The good apples can grow and flourish and make good cider once the bad ones have dropped off. It's all very insightful not. According to bots he is a genius and that's such a good message. Hmm

cozietoesie · 31/08/2016 18:00

I wouldn't push that analogy too far, I think. If you understand both fruiting and cider-making that is........Grin

Spongebobette · 31/08/2016 18:24

Doesn't the best scrumpy have a dead rat in the barrel?

Hush, Sponge. I became blotto quite merry on the real thing once and ever since, the word makes me cringe! Grin

cozietoesie · 31/08/2016 19:07

When I say merry, I mean 'merry from the knees down' of course. Quite extraordinary.

I have not been able to drink cider since an experience with a cider based punch (containing vodka that I didn't know about) in my first week at university

cozietoesie · 31/08/2016 20:07

Oh I can drink cider - or what passes for cider these days - with impunity. 'The other' is a different beast altogether. Wink

Urgh if you search for 'if your friend started a restaurant' on FB you'll see how copy and paste makes bots of people

smiinky · 31/08/2016 22:18

Facebook is starting to flag that stuff up and hide it thank goodness. Its becoming more like Google, the content you post needs to be compelling, interesting and original, otherwise its not gonna come up on peoples walls. I think FB know that most people find mlm selling irritating, but they still have to balance that with the money they make from the bots for sponsored posts. Get it wrong and people will leave Facebook and they don't want that!

It is with great sadness that I bring you news of CAM's death. She was our 'Middle East correspondent' and spent a lot of time and effort spreading the word about the dangers of MLMs. RIP CAM.
