Another lurker wondering if some one can point me in the direction of Brokebot?

SSDGM · 20/04/2018 19:29

It just feels like he’s taking the piss now. That photoshopped pic!

I’ve heard he’s already got the next one lined up. A little bird has told me he’s about to become a disciple of the Messiah’s.

Twentytwentyhindsight · 20/04/2018 19:44

I thought Broke & Messiah had had a falling out previously (something or other about scammers)?

Is Broke to be one of Messiah's inner circle of 'locked-in' leaders (the unveiling of which will make our jaws drop)? If he is, TSLife is even more low rent than I thought it could get!

SSDGM · 20/04/2018 20:14

Of course they had a falling out. Broke was going to “ruin” Messiah. Both of them peacocking around, flogging their dodgy beverages.

SSDGM · 20/04/2018 20:15

My predictions:
Broke
Lipbot
Porschebot
Carplanbot
Salon

Twentytwentyhindsight · 20/04/2018 20:21

I've worked out castlebot and broke but stuck on wig and sleeze. Would appreciate a Pm please.

Whiterangey · 20/04/2018 20:59

@SSDGM That is only 5, doesn't he need 12 disciples?

Could you imagine that book in 2000 years time?

Twentytwentyhindsight · 20/04/2018 21:29

@SSDGM, it would appear that an early Apostle for Messiah's new venture is Broke's Irish man hun namesake, rather than our favourite pet clown.

SSDGM · 20/04/2018 22:01

Oooh, very interesting. Thank you!

ArbunneHun · 20/04/2018 22:25

I’d be surprised if Messiah didn’t go after Sacked-by-Ariiiiiiiix... not sure she’ll bite though?

entrepeneur · 20/04/2018 23:29

Saved Ariiiix Bot has her own MLM waist shrinking empire going on so I doubt she would be bothered about adding to her portfolio now that she's her own Messiah

BSintolerant · 20/04/2018 23:44

Whiterangey Maybe Messiahbot's only got five disciples because He'd need a miracle to feed five thousand of the buggers with the usual MLM lies and wishes.

Allison Mack, Smallville actress, charged over Nxivm sex trafficking (BBC News link)

This story relates to a pyramid scheme which I am sure has been mentioned on these threads, if briefly.

Apologies if it's already been posted, I'm a little behind again.

Whiterangey · 21/04/2018 01:32

@BSintolerant Feeding the five thousand is so 2000 years ago, who wants to do that?

It's all about having the five thousand in your downline.

Whiterangey · 21/04/2018 03:45

@acatcalledjohn That is fantastic news! I read the report that he had been arrested but I thought she was somehow going to get away with it. So glad they have got her as well.

The whole Nxivm story is fascinating, but a really hard read, those poor women.

OP posts:
Whiterangey · 21/04/2018 03:57

I just realised, it's Saturday. Which means the Forever Living Global rally starts tomorrow! 5000CC's and above will get there for Sunday, 2500CC's get there Monday. Cheque days are Friday and Saturday.

What is the cut off for getting your cheque on the Friday or Saturday? Is it done by monetary amount, or CC's? Although I guess the more CC's you do the bigger your cheque will be.

We already know the GB bots have got lower CC's than they did last year, so it's going to be fascinating to see the cheque amounts, but also how they spin it.

BSintolerant · 21/04/2018 08:04

Acat I remember Nxivm being mentioned here before, and I couldn't believe what I was reading. How awful. It takes bait and switch MLM recruitment tactics to a whole new level. I hope those poor women get all the support they need and the bastards behind it all get whatever's coming to them.

Norma27 · 21/04/2018 08:44

That Nxivm article is just awful. The pyramid schemes we normally talk about here are vile, manipulative and exploit women but this is just another level of evil. How do people sleep at night?
Those poor women. I hope they get the help they need.

MargiaStevens · 21/04/2018 17:11

Could someone PM me and explain all the nicknames? Thanks!

ArbunneHun · 21/04/2018 17:47

Huns, huns! Reading between the lines on Yawns FB, I’ve picked up a few clues and subtle hints and I THINK she might be going to Dallas?

Am I on to something here or is that just a wild stab in the dark...?

Whiterangey · 21/04/2018 18:04

You are reading too much into it i'm afraid. I've just looked and I really can't see where you are getting those hints from.

You should really keep your wild theories to yourself.

OP posts:
Whiterangey · 21/04/2018 18:16

It is quite impressive how she hasn't mentioned the actual cheque, which is really the whole reason for going and should be the selling point to her minions.

An all expenses paid holiday to Dallas is a nice treat, well it would be if you got to control where you spent the holiday. 2 days are going to be spent at the rally, another visiting aloe fields, and there will be trainings, parties for attendees etc.

The cheque should be the life changer aspect though, when you are back it's the cheque that means the most for your family and lifestyle.

I think her cheque is likely to be about $25,000 which would be just under £18,000. I've based that on what others who have had level 1 and 2500CC's have received.

It does depend on a lot of factors, like how well Forever Living have done globally and how many others have qualified for Chairman's Bonus this year.

It does seem that while the UK is doing poorly in FLP, other areas of the world are thriving. South Africa seems to be doing exceptionally well.

I think the UK just got sick of FLP, or they just ran out of new recruits.
