I saw that too Sponge - inverted narcissism as its best.

Since when is calling out bullshit on mlm schemes bullying? Jealous bitches? Less of the jealous. 😉

BSintolerant · 28/05/2017 14:16

Inverted? I meant vulnerable. When sausage fingers and autocorrect collide ...

darceybussell · 28/05/2017 14:19

An aloe bot Sponge - she's really not the type so I'm really annoyed.

I did a rather loud over the top 'oh I bloody hate those things!' which made her laugh - but I'm hoping she got the hint.

BSintolerant · 28/05/2017 14:52

I hope you don't end up on her chicken list Darcey!

lasagnefortea · 28/05/2017 15:17

Who is 'overcome bullying' bot?

cozietoesie · 28/05/2017 16:57

Jealousy/Bullying is all they can say. What other rejoinders do they have, realistically?

Spongebobette · 28/05/2017 18:17

Oh I think they are taught to turn every situation into an opportunity

I've been criticised = I've been bullied = I have had to overcome bullying = my MLM friends are so supportive and have helped me get over the bullying = my MLM is wonderful

Annie65 · 28/05/2017 18:31

Sometimes I wonder if "certain people" make these things up to get attention. Some people are addicted to the whole "Im being picked on but am so fantastic and brilliant I can fight my way out and get over it" thing. I find though if you really are over something you dont bloody well keep on and on about it. Hmm

BSintolerant · 28/05/2017 18:45

Exactly Annie - the lady doth protest too much.

The irony is that certain bots will blame bullies and jealous bitches when their alleged businesses go tits up. It's a win-win situation! 😊

SSDGM · 29/05/2017 03:12

"You're all Jealous bullies" - or as I call it, the "Jodie Marsh Defence" - act in a distasteful way and counter any criticism by crying victim and suggesting the criticiser wants to be Just Like You except that doesn't make sense.

Still, rather a jealous bitch than a liar, eh?

Link to sweary American podcast talking about all things MLM and bang on the money. Worth a listen!

It would appear that Uberbot is definitely no longer with her fella. He lives in the same TINY village as my friend who's filled me in. He has a reputation as being a massive cocklodger so to can see how he found it all so appealing, but apparently the whole family are wrapped up in FL and he likened it to being stuck in a family of Scientologists.
The family apparently has no friends outside of FL whatsoever.
Who knows if it's true but it does sound pretty plausible.

BSintolerant · 29/05/2017 13:18

Very interesting dickie.

It's reassuring to know that MLM cultic behaviour isn't sexually transmitted. Grin

Norma27 · 29/05/2017 13:25

I know uberbot does still have some friends from her college days. I used to socialise with her when younger but haven't seen her since she got involved with FL. I am now related to one of our friends through marriage (who is still a good friend of hers but hates FL) and the family have all warned me not to get involved with her and that they all believe it is a big scam. . She doesn't know my name on Facebook but if she did she would try to get me involved.
Must admit I am often tempted to send a friend request just to see what happens.

Spongebobette · 29/05/2017 14:06

Ooh go on go on Norma. Go undercover for us!

Spongebobette · 29/05/2017 14:07

dickie
They still have a baby together though, isn't it sad.

Annie65 · 29/05/2017 15:24

I remember being called a " jealous hater" once before. After a School reunion I accepted a friend request from a girl I knew at School. She now lives in Dubai, and was forever slating England, saying how she couldn't understand how the rest of us could stand living here. When some of us dared to say she should not be saying these things and she should never forget where she came from we were called jealous and other names by her other friends. She told me at the School reunion that she did not like coming back to England to see her parents and felt it was a duty to do so. Not a nice person at all. It seemed that she could say and do whatever she liked but if anyone else had an opinion we were jealous bullies. Does this seem similar folks? Angry

Spongebobette · 29/05/2017 15:38

Oh she sounds like a lovely person Annie

🙄

cozietoesie · 29/05/2017 15:53

Have you defriended her?

darceybussell · 29/05/2017 15:56

Re bots splitting up with their partners - I've noticed the 'humble' bot that left FL for Ariix in a massive shit storm also seems to have split up with her partner and father of her youngest child - but obviously she has never mentioned any of this on her massively filtered Facebook profile. I noticed she hadn't mentioned him for a while and it seems she has also unfriended him.

Totally fascinating how they seem to live their entire lives on social media posting multiple times a day but still manage to filter out anything remotely negative!

Vancitybrit · 29/05/2017 15:59

Goodness me - this person doesn't even pretend it isn't about recruiting!

Could someone also PM me Uber, Overcame Bullying and Stoke Flat Bots please? Thanks!

Annie65 · 29/05/2017 16:03

Oh yes, this was about 6 years ago. She really got to me, she was slating the area we live in too. Ok, its not the best place to live but its still home and I told her on Fb to" stop pretending to be someone she wasn't" and to stop being so rude to every1. Then I decided that I didn't need to have someone like that on my fb and blocked her and her other croonies. I would have preferred to have said these things to her face though. It's a pet hate of mine to be called Jealous and bully when all I am doing is stating my own opinion.

Annie65 · 29/05/2017 16:05

Sorry that previous message is to Cozie.

DoratheExplorer17 · 29/05/2017 17:10

I also heard about uber bot and her fella. I know someone who knows someone etc. Sad because there's a baby involved but I'm guessing the whole cultish behaviour and the fact that their lives were plastered all over social media probably drove the poor guy away. Sad really that fl seems to come before everything else and sod the consequences. I'd rather have a job and a life with real friends than millions in the bank and a big beautiful house filled with material things, getting lonely! I actual feel a teeny bit sorry for her. Her perspective is massively messed up and she can't see what's really important anymore. Totally brainwashed!

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 29/05/2017 17:31

It is incredibly sad that there is a baby involved. I just hope that contact with the father will ensure she gets a balanced view of life rather than just the FL view.
