On this thread we are botwatchers - watching multi level marketing bots and exposing their manipulations and misleading claims

Latest evidence of Yawns dire financial state, she dyed her daughter’s hair for her. Any normal mum would not have attempted such a risky job on a teenager. Can you imagine the fall out in that household if it had failed or she didn’t like it. For me it would have been the ideal Christmas present.Day out at a swanky salon with post hairdo drinks afterwards.

FLP is just so second rate isn't it?

I am wondering how a sincere believer in LoA and manifestation, like Nurse, can reconcile believing that you attract either good things or bad things into your life with getting a nasty cold (possibly Covid) at Christmas
Is she to blame for not manifesting a healthy Christmas break? And what about all the money she spends on aloe to boost her immune system?

There must be a wormhole in those nooks and crannies / pockets / wizards’ sleeves of time FLP bots are always blathering about. Beam me up, Botty!

YouOKHun · 29/12/2024 00:07

They are probably trying to avoid focussing too much on 2025 and beyond so are hoping to work backwards to 2015 and just keep the bots focussed on that year (much as the uplines already do by repeatedly uploading key highlights from that year).

Yawn is looking for inspirational women for her podcast. She's advertising it as a non paid gig that may or may not get you the attention you may or may not so desperately want. The only women interested are the same shitty loa idiots she has turned herself into. All the crap about her home gym and offering tips/tricks/tips and more tricks....when is someone actually going to tell her to just fuck right of with all the utter billy bollocks bullshit?

Fierce is claiming she ‘launched a universe for entrepreneurs’

and ‘sold my shares in the university’ the following year

wonder if Castle actually parted with money to buy her out?

Why doesn't it surprise me Yawn has taken her decs down already? She has the attention span of a gnat....no takers on the glow up rubbish I see..

Wintersgirl · 29/12/2024 18:12

Oh and she must know it's bad luck to take them down early....how ironic

YouOKHun · 29/12/2024 18:29

@Spongebobette well Castle has been talking about a cash giveaway (she claims to have given £4,250 of her parents money to her online community) which if true would demonstrate how easy it is for her to spend money she hasn't earned. No doubt she had an equally casual attitude to signing one of Fierce's illiterate contracts. I wouldn't be surprised if Fierce made Castle's life difficult and then demanded cash to sever the relationship. Fierce didn't sell her shares, she demanded money with menaces.

I bet Castle's parents picked up the tab for the purchases of Fierce's "shares" as well as all the costs of Scamversity during the time Fierce was chancellor of the esteemed seat of learning. Another expense to add to the pulped planners, pointless logo hoodies and various expensive hobbies and distractions they have to fund.

As for Yawn and her promises that any "podcast" guest will be promoted to her VAST Unlucky Club following - would this be the vast following of random and unlikely sounding paid followers from around the globe who are clearly not interested to the point you've had to abandon the Unlucky Club FB page?

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 29/12/2024 18:55

If I was paying to be part of this that 'academy', I'd expect part of my subscription to be paid towards any guests she had on. The fact that Yawn has publicised that she wants free speakers just shows how unprofessional she is.

Launched a universe? If that’s not a typo, I’ve missed one hell of a big bang! 💥 😉

I wonder if it was a case of “Cough up, Castle or I’ll sue you!”

The gym has been renamed The Unlucky Club Gym. Probably because she is working up to going full C9 for January and presumably might have some misguided customers for her low prices which undercut other bots.

What next? The Unlucky Girl Bot Pot? The Unlucky Girl Caravan Park in the woods? The Unlucky Girl Staycation? I fear she is going to start a branding exercise where everything in her tiny world is touched by her wand of doom.

Is Scamversity still running?

Didn’t she say she was having a break for a few months?

YouOKHun · 30/12/2024 14:17

@Lunde Castle just does whatever she can each day to try and keep the attention of her dwindling followers and that includes mentioning Scamversity every now and again to make sure it looks like it's still alive.

I was also wondering what happened to Castle taking a few months off as she mentioned a few weeks back. Yawn stopping for Christmas or taking December off doesn't seem to have happened either. It's far too risky to stop posting for even 24 hours for these bots even though their efforts are ultimately futile.

Wintersgirl · 30/12/2024 18:48

1000 subscribers by the end of the year eh Yawn?

Spongebobette · 30/12/2024 20:09

How many does she have?

and how many are actually paying?

OP posts:
Wintersgirl · 30/12/2024 20:19

I doubt it's anywhere near 1000, that was her target when she started so I'm sure she'd be telling everyone she's "smashed it" by now! I would hazzard a guess and say about 25 max (I'm being generous) I reckon some of them will be cancelling because Christmas is expensive and what she's offering really isn't value for money....it's really crap

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 30/12/2024 21:14

There are 82 members but as PP have said, most of them won't be paying; they'll be her FL minions there to make up the numbers.
She's had a comment on her coaching post from an FL person who I've noticed before commenting snd getting ignored by Yawn, and seems vulnerable.

YouOKHun · 30/12/2024 21:53

I remember you quoting a similar or slightly higher number before @dickiedavisthunderthighs. Not even 100 let alone 1000 members and if this unlucky endeavour was working she would be welcoming new members every week. It's not sustainable even if the few that paid for the first month keep doing so. The unlucky club will remain as a face-saving cover but she is really reliant on her FLP endeavours. She will probably sell a few C9s by undercutting other bots but what then? Her next set of accounts will make for interesting reading.

I've noticed she sometimes ignores comments even posts that are really sucking up to her, they can't be worth replying too in Yawn's eyes as they're either a FL bot or a paid one...
