I'm sorry this has happened to your friend, Juni, and I hope you can garner some ideas from the pieces in botwatch. We're the pair of you close?

cozietoesie · 19/05/2017 20:51

Sorry. Were......

JuniDD · 19/05/2017 21:08

Thanks, cozie Yes, we are very close friends...I'm expecting it will likely fizzle out as I can't see how anyone can make any money out of it and surely there's only so many products you can buy yourself?! She was also a bit into one of the cooking ones (Pampered Chef?) many years ago so I'll have a look at the websites and see if there are any subtle ways to discuss it. Her DP has his head on though so I hope she doesn't get too sucked in.
I'm mainly surprised at Neal's Yard which I thought was a bit more upmarket but I guess anything goes to rake in the £££. Hmm

cozietoesie · 19/05/2017 21:14

Botwatch has some pieces about how to deal with your sort of situation - scroll down until you come to the 'Contents' page and you'll see links for them. There are people who post here who have been in your situation, though, so feel free to come back and discuss it. Smile

Lots of luck.

Spongebobette · 19/05/2017 21:40

The thing is with Neal's Yard is, the products are lovely but several times a year Waitrose has 25% off (which is when I stock up) so I don't see how a 'business owner' could compete

DoratheExplorer17 · 19/05/2017 22:52

Anyone else noticed that FL Uber bot is always banging on about the new baby but hasn't mentioned Mr Uber Bot in a long time?? Either he's asked her to not put him in her posts or he's vanished?!?

GriefLeavesItsMark · 19/05/2017 23:13

Does Castleford still live in a castle?

GriefLeavesItsMark · 19/05/2017 23:18

Castlebot

DoratheExplorer17 · 19/05/2017 23:26

No she moved to a more modest abode!

Spongebobette · 20/05/2017 06:17

Ah yes Dora I just had a look and he's never mentioned

SoulLove · 20/05/2017 08:20

Can someone please PM me any of these bots as I'm a nosey git fascinated by all of this.

MrsGotobed · 20/05/2017 08:23

Dora - I'd noticed that too. Don't think he's been mentioned since Dubai.

DoratheExplorer17 · 20/05/2017 08:53

No he hasn't had he. She was gushing all about him before?? And I swear there was a pic of him and her as her profile pic which had disappeared. She was wearing a Greek outfit. I think it was from the fl trip last year. That's gone too? Maybe everything isn't as perfect as she portrays?

MrsGotobed · 20/05/2017 09:29

....and he doesn't appear to be facebook friends with her or any of her immediate family??? Hmm

lasagnefortea · 20/05/2017 10:16

I'd love a PM, can't figure out Salon Bot. Haven't heard of Uber bot before!

MrsGotobed · 20/05/2017 11:35

How wrong is this?

So 5 days ago I was set a MASSIVE challenge by xxxx (this is one of our company owners, who is also the producer of our products)......Lose 19lb in 45 days, and help me represent our drops on stage in Hong Kong

Being told to lose weight (by any means and method no doubt) and your "reward" is to appear on a stage with the rich person at the top of the pyramid to promote weight loss due to their products.

Great! Starve yourself to be an advert and for a "free" working holiday.

(This was Streaky Rasher bot BTW)

Spongebobette · 20/05/2017 11:39

Yuk.

Spongebobette · 20/05/2017 11:45

This thing re uber bot.
It's always very sad when a relationship breaks up, particularly when there's a child involved. And I do not want to gloat.
But it is a very interesting glimpse into the 'attraction marketing' which is one of the biggest tools used by these top bots; a perfect life, tons of money etc etc.
We now can see what is left out of the picture in one case.
Mind you, a little further down the road this will be used as another 'story' , i.e. 'FL helped me so much to get through a difficult stage in my life, I am so blessed'

DomesticAnarchist · 20/05/2017 16:31

My NuSkin bot is still in, clearly.

I'm a bit of a scientist, but I can't work out these claims. If it's all negatively charged, does that make it a plasma?

OhNoItIsntOhYesItIs · 20/05/2017 16:41

So the mud sucks all the positivity out of your life?

DomesticAnarchist · 20/05/2017 17:11

Ha! I like that!

cozietoesie · 20/05/2017 18:17

Cut to the chase, Domestic. How much is it? Wink

Rantymare · 20/05/2017 20:56

I've just pissed my (only) mlm bot off (younique) as she keeps mentioning about how it is totally cruelty free. A quick Google told me it isn't. So I asked her to double check and if she's right, then current information needs updating.
I like watching her updates but I do feel quite sad for her.

cozietoesie · 20/05/2017 21:39

Is/was she a friend rather than an acquaintance?

Rantymare · 20/05/2017 21:50

Probably more an acquaintance. I genuinely feel for her and hope she gets out of it.
