Botwatch 90!!!! MLM is dying but we are still watching and sadly there are still many victims. 99.6% of participants in these “legal” schemes lose money but they are STILL being promised the world by MLM. And ‘coaching’ scams are just as bad!

Urghhhh

i really hope she isn’t tempted to use her employment at the school to recruit or sell. It’s very hard to resist the pressure from uplines to meet targets and earn incentives

New terms and rulez for the new FBO Blind Loyalty Scheme. Don’t forget to buy or you can’t be part of it! The most loyal bots win a garage full of jizz.

My post should read ‘rules of the New FBO Blind Loyalty Scheme’ because obviously this trick isn’t a new scheme but it’s one being pushed heavily at the moment to the new bots hoping to make 2026 the bonanza they’ve been told it’s highly likely to be.

When Uber returns from her personal training session at her trendy new gym and gazes out of her window into the garden that she had designed and built for her, admiring her new pink bench, I wonder if she watches Yawn's Insta stories of her "exercising" with rocks in her weed and dog shit strewn garden and smirks to herself.

Honestly Yawn, give up ... you can't afford a gym membership and you can't afford a gardener and, no matter how you try and style it out, it's obvious.

Spongebobette · 29/12/2025 16:59

Uber must have access to income which isn’t MLM related - inheritance?

I think she knows her posts are monitored by Yawn, there are pointed references to Christmas being ‘jam
packed with friends’

she also mentions qualifying for her 15th Chairman’s Bonus - not something Yawn can look forward to this coming year?

YouOKHun · 29/12/2025 20:13

Yes @Spongebobettepossibly as her DF died recently. I guess Uber has also reduced her costs via the house sale and of course we are seeing some very edited highlights (though not edited enough as far as her youngest prop child is concerned). I’m sure Yawn monitors a few of them while crying into her glass of warm alcohol-free Prosecco.

Uber obviously made a lot more money than Yawn but she also diversified. The Yawns were too quick to buy the symbols of success during the brief good times and live beyond their means. They are a lesson in what success in MLM really looks like.

I wonder how long the line would be if every victim of Uber’s success were placed side by side? The woman is poison. I just wish people could see it.

Weird Willy is backity back back! Rejoice for he has returned unto us with the same idea he had when he last resurrected for three posts in April! Be a founding member! Except this time it’s probably not going to be an app. They’re too expensive.

Is Weird Willy wearing Turin Dungarees? “Take, sniff: this is my basil.”

YouOKHun · 30/12/2025 11:34

I checked a few days ago to reassure myself that Willy was at least dormant and apart from some comment about being a Facebook top fan there was nothing to see. His comment about being a top fan of some cafe received unusually high engagement for him with a massive eight people liking his post. This must have awoken the coaching demon.

I blame Christmas. He’s obviously been giving a few days off and it’s allowed the delusions to take hold. People in the Weirdshire area need to start ordering vegetables and Basil like there is no tomorrow. It’s the only way to distract him away from popping on a pair of dungarees and sharing all his psychological problems with us. He is already sharing a flowchart about barriers to achieving in life when you have an unworkable pipe dream that nobody is interested in and telling us that we can be helped by him to overcome HIS problem. It’s a slippery slope. Why can’t he mainline mince pies and watch Mary Poppins and The Railway Children at Christmas like normal people?

@pontivex he’s probably still paying off the costs of the app he paid for using the credit card he found in the drawer. I am also worried about him being given the Easter bank holiday off work.

Spongebobette · 30/12/2025 15:18

He doesn’t seem to be living in the flat he was a year ago. Wonder if he’s moved in with his (well-off) parents

It’s quite sad that Yawn has to announce every new subscription/customer. She has also announce that they are merging all the activities. Not a particularly clever business move. It clouds the waters for new customers who won’t really know what the business is aiming to do for them. But I suppose for those who are looking for website building, business mentoring, weight loss and help with their addiction to alcohol it is the ideal one stop.

They really do need to make it easier to see what they are offering, and maybe concentrate on one product to establish a solid customer base, then provide a consistent high quality service that encourages recommendation. Then diversify after decent feedback from return customers. Trying to attract new customers by adding more and more services on a whim just reeks of desperation.

Spongebobette · 30/12/2025 16:23

Another fake new subscription, as per the post up thread (the order number gives it away)

OP posts:
YouOKHun · 30/12/2025 20:13

Well, if ever there was a sign things are not going well for Yawn it’s the amalgamation of three grifts that no one is engaged with into one untidy confusion that no one is engaging with. Anyone (if there is anyone) who is paying for one grift is now going to get exactly the same material again if they hang around.

My guess is that no one who was signed up at the beginning of 2025 is still paying. Those people were mainly obedient downlines but they’re not anymore. She will find that all of her advice is easily available to others from were she got it why would they pay her for it? Really all she is selling is her carefully constructed success persona but without the resources to be very convincing. There are just too many Yawns out there hawking their coaching, she hasn’t a hope either solo or as a trio.

Spongebobette · 30/12/2025 20:21

But she’s SO EXCITED!!

Yawns now an Endocrinologist it would seem. You can go to her for advice on a “hormone reset”.

dickiedavisthunderthighs · 31/12/2025 15:48

I think they have two paying members, the dog training ex bot and the crafting ex bot.
Very interestingly, the crafting one is doing pretty well and featured on a local website. I don’t know of anyone else here spotted it, but when she posted it in the BuildaBear group, both her and the article gave a huge shout out to her ‘mentor’ Techie. Not a single mention of Yawn whatsoever.

OhMyGiddyAunt · 03/01/2026 20:43

Happy New Year bot watchers!

I wonder what 2026 will bring for our favourite bots?

It's been interesting watching how even those at the top of the pyramid (eg. Uber) are still having to flog the lifestyle / use their kids/ flog the gloop throughout the festive holiday when everyone else has their feet up chomping mince pies and relaxing.

Funniest post has to be Yawn trying to put a positive spin on having a load of cold sores erupt around her mouth. Apparently it's a good sign as when she's had them before it's been the start of a positive spell.

Castle seems to be struggling with the oldest turret - all those years of showing every private moment of his life for content on her social media coming back to bite her on the bum maybe?

Nurse meanwhile is over the moon as she's had a Toby Carvery and is throwing all her time and energy into manifesting her wealth through reading a book ...but at least she's happy and not lining FL's pockets and appears happy in her job.

AbbeyGrange · 04/01/2026 11:28

Castle still spouting the same old tosh, and what's with all those stupid zany videos? Happy New Year btw!

Justdancevance · 04/01/2026 14:37

At least castle has her Facebook account back so she can continue posting photos of her young son.

Loudly repeating what he says and shouting ‘good boy’. All filmed of course.

Happy New Year Botwatchers!

Unless I have been blocked from taking an anonymous peek at Mrs Boring’s LinkedIn profile, I think she has disappeared from LinkedIn altogether. It’s not long ago she was posting at least once a day. Then she stopped, with only a couple of interactions with others’ posts. One interaction agreeing with someone about not liking people looking at their LinkedIn profile regularly. Perhaps if she hadn’t been treating LinkedIn like a Facebook page that would have helped.

If she has disappeared altogether it doesn’t seem like the Borings are staying quiet while they continue working on their successful FLP biz having hit a snag as property tycoons. You’d surely keep your social media page alive and ready for an upturn if you had a blip? It feels like the whole thing has collapsed and they have disappeared completely while some process happens over which they don’t have control (and would really rather we didn’t see). Boring Mansion sits forlornly, becoming less and less worth its reduced price. If it sells I wonder if that will be the catalyst for their triumphant botting return or if, as we suspect, the damage is more extensive and they are in real trouble. Yet another example of the precarious success in MLM which attracts these flash fly-by-night types like Mr Boring. I wish we had agents on the ground in Boringville!

Happy New Year Botwatchers! I am back to my J.O.B. tomorrow, rather than doing Yawn’s 21 day manifesting “challenge”. Only £60 a month for three useless pillars of shite everyone!
