The very sweet, butter wouldn’t melt, floral designer Poonique bot that I follow claims to have built her team to 955 people in 2 years.

My Facebook memories from when I was an FLP bot make me cringe so badly! I have to quickly scroll past them!

KevinTheYuccaPlant · 15/05/2018 07:26

I've been following these threads for about a year now and saw my first 'EEEK!' in the wild last night :( A friend saying she'd invested £50 yesterday and was now only hours away from withdrawing £200, PM for details. Immediately followed by a comment from the person I assume got her into it talking about the next ladder tables.

Three of her friends, including me, called her out on it and the post was promptly deleted, but sounds crypto-MLM to me.

So Yawn was peddling during day and then again with Uber and bff at night. All the bots are now displaying their order boxes - a few boxes of sold product isn't going to stop the rot girls!
Desperate times call for desperate measures! I haven't seen this amount of action in a long time! JUMP GIRLS, JUMP! Plastering a gaping hole in your hull with cotton wool is not going to work.

.... saw my first 'EEEK!' in the wild last night :(....

SoftlyCatchyMonkey1 · 15/05/2018 14:21

Did they actually use the word "eeeek"?

7seas · 15/05/2018 14:31

Oh yes eeeek! Is definitely mlm speak. Along with 'super excited'

SoftlyCatchyMonkey1 · 15/05/2018 15:17

God I hate both of those terms.

Eeek.

I'm super bored of this ridiculous way of describing excitement.

ArbunneHun · 15/05/2018 15:40

Eeek!

BOOM!

All bloody MLM BOTSHITE

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2018 16:00

Woooohooo, so excited! (A has-been celeb/ex sportsperson I've never heard of) is becoming a brand ambassador for the shite we can't sell!

The employees of my local corner shop react the same way every time Gary Lineker renews his contact to promote a certain brand of crisps. Not.

Paddy1234 · 15/05/2018 16:22

So Yawn introducing the team she saw today is the same one she saw on Saturday ......... Flogging a dead fish springs to mind

OhMyGodTheyKilledKenny · 15/05/2018 16:35

Well, you know these bots, a white lie here, a white lie there....

They'll also put a positive spin on anything.

Take Roomie for example. On a beautiful hot, sunny day like today she appears to be doing a (2.5 hours each way) drive from Devon to Cornwall to see a possible victim to sign up but according to her it's a glorious day to be driving (cos of course we all love being stuck in a car on days like this Hmm)

ArbunneHun · 15/05/2018 16:40

Laughing at Yawn’s error-ridden post about her recruits. According to her “they’re über-cute babies!”

Lol. Thought you had to be 18 years old to join FL, not 18 weeks...

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2018 16:52

That biggest lie of all... "she'll be in control of her income...". Er, so you can guarantee her a certain income from a set amount of input that she can choose? I don't fucking think so!

Paddy1234 · 15/05/2018 17:48

Flogging a dead fish ffs #horse

Twentytwentyhindsight · 15/05/2018 17:52

Thought you had done that deliberately @Paddy1234, it's exactly the sort of malapropism our pet bots are fond of peppering their posts with!

Whiterangey · 15/05/2018 17:56

'Building a business' is exactly what someone who has just given birth should be doing.

Who needs to be bonding with their baby and catching up on their sleep. I hope she doesn't end up with post natal depression from trying to work her business while caring for her newborn. The caring for herself will likely go out of the window, can't see how she will have time for that.

Family friendly my arse.

Has anyone seen The Rants of an Angry Momma Bear on facebook.

She is always trying to sell her mascara as well as being a loving mother to quite a few children.

It's definitely worth a read, especially her latest post trying to meet her mascara selling goals.

They are a good target, telling them they won't ever have to leave their baby to go back to work and they can earn millions so baby will have everything ever while they are growing up.

KevinTheYuccaPlant · 15/05/2018 19:49

Softly - they did indeed actually use EEK! In capitals.

Whiterangey · 15/05/2018 20:06

Uber and her sister have taking a payday trip to Bicester Village.

There was me thinking that Forever Living was so lucrative that you didn't need to wait until payday to treat yourself.
