BOTWATCH 93! The latest in a long running anti MLM thread. We may be celebrating the demise of Forever Living MLM in the US but sadly MLM/network marketing is still pulling in victims using lies and manipulation … the botwatching continues …

New thread, welcome one and all

You are an excellent detective! I haven't been able to find a qualifier list.
I thought you had to sponsor a certain number to qualify (or a certain amount being from "new business") but I guess the rules have changed over the years. It is alll very murky indeed and it will be interesting to see how the Borings unravel.

@definitelynotabot thank you but there are others more eagle eyed than me! I got the names of the qualifiers from a post 3 days ago on FBO page. Below is taken from the link on the post and might be helpful. Edited to protect the guilty:

Any bot who is a resident of the UK
Ireland or Iceland and meets the qualification requirements during the qualification period (1-31 August 2026) can qualify.
What are the qualification requirements?
Level 1 - Champion

• 4 Active CC
• Sponsor 1 new Assistant Supervisor
• 2 Personal Case Credits

Level 2 - Leader

• 4 Active CC
• Sponsor 3 new Assistant Supervisors
• 2 Personal Case Credits
• or you can do bugger all and just help your dodgy level 3 mate out by “qualifying”

Level 3 - President's Circle

• 4 Active CC
• Sponsor 3 or more new Assistant Supervisors
• 2 Personal Case Credits
• Develop 1 new Supervisor

What does each level receive? Level 1 • Invitation to the leadership training session with The Fat Controller (whoopee-do) Level 2 Everything in Level 1, plus:

• Reserved Seating (You + 1 Guest)
• Exclusive AliExpress "Let's Go Chumps" winderbreaker jacket

Level 3 Everything in Level 2, plus:

• President's Dinner with The Fat Controller & Scamaloupolis (Qualifier + 1 Guest, guest can be a money launderer or crooked accountant friend or in-laws if you can patch things up)
• Overnight Hotel Stay for the qualifer and guest, including breakfast

What counts as the 2 Personal Case Credit requirement? Personal Case Credits are the Case Credits generated from your own personal FBO ID and retail customer orders placed through your Forever web store during the qualification period (1-31 August 2026). The required 2 Personal Case Credits can be part of your 4 Active Case Credits and are not an additional requirement. Only Personal Case Credits generated in the UK, Ireland or Iceland will count towards qualification. What counts as developing one new Supervisor? A personally sponsored FPC or FBO who achieves Supervisor status during the qualification period (1-31 August 2026) will count towards this qualification. The FPC/FBO does not need to have been personally sponsored during August, but must be a resident of the UK, Ireland or Iceland.

Interesting - thank you.
So level 2 person will have been needing to be sponsoring and had at least one person do something before they quit (haven't worked out who that is yet). Or of course they may have a big garage 😀

But if Mr Boring is level 3, how the hell has he managed to convince 3 people to join?

Did someone mention Welsh bot is back botting? I thought she left FL...

Wait...Homeschool is not a lesbian any more?

Nope. Do try to keep up 🤣

Her poor kids must be so f**d up, everything in her life is a total mess, there's been no stability for them for years now...

she had 2 lesbian partners in a row after Weird Willy and the second one moved in with her own children so there was a blended family for some time. Must have been confusing and upsetting for the children to have integrated then separated

I may have got Welsh Bot confused but if she has the first name combo as

The legendary actress who was in The Sound of Music AND
The Editor of Vogue who wears dark glasses.

Surname is a creature who builds dams, but with the last letter changed to an N

But if Welsh Bot is this her, then Yes, she's a Level 2 super Soaring flappy pigeon.

Yes that is Welsh bot...well well well

Selfish cow, she's not considered her childrens needs at all, just her own..

I thought WelshBot was all about the patches these days.

Didn't Yawn spend about 2 mins promoting them on TikTok or did I imagine that?

@OhMyGiddyAunt I thought she was all about Herby Plasters too. I think the going has been tough. They found out that big retailers can take up all your capacity, make demands and then drop your product without a backwards glance. Let’s face it all these patch companies are making some pretty crazy physiologically impossible claims for what their patches can “support”.

They’ve also had a competitor call them out over their packaging or wording which seemed to be a coincidence rather than a deliberate move. It looked like it caused them a lot of angst and expense all the same. Then the excruciating hour of Yawn getting eviscerated on TikTok can’t have helped the mood at Planty Plasters HQ. I think they’ve struggled so it wouldn’t surprise me if Welsh went back to FL wearing very rose tinted 2015 specs.

Hmmm the M*llow Patch company makes quite a lot of claims about what their patches do!

I note that one of their posts says the business is run by ‘2 single mummies’

It's a shame she's gone back to botting because I really want her genuine business to do well, they did make a claim to being the ONLY company in the UK that sells PDRN skincare when I knew for a fact it's been available in the UK well before they started selling it, so making claims without doing research isn't going to help your reputation, she shouldn't have let Yawn try and flog the patches on Tik tok either, her pitch was rubbish..

I don't like it when a small business states it's "run by 2 single Mummies" what is that meant to do? Ignite sympathy? Admiration? Awe? It's the 21st century now and they need move on with from those twee sayings and be more corporate and business like..

Her FLP company accounts were a mess when she started the plaster company and it looks things haven’t improved. She uses the bot accountancy firm for the present venture.

@hourglass2 I agree. Imagine saying “our company is run by two daddies”, it just doesn’t happen. Their parental status isn’t relevant but it seems to be a bit of a protective shield - be nice to us because we are two mummies. Being a mother is such an important recruitment target in MLM that it must be a tricky thing to set aside.

Yes that's the MLM side coming out when they say that..

it seems to be a bit of a protective shield - be nice to us because we are two mummies.

You're right of course, but as she's found out that being a Mummy hasn't stopped another company with a "cease and desist" warning to her patch company... as if that company would say "Aww, they're Mummies, we won't pursue this lawsuit, bless" they found out the hard way business isn't for the feint hearted, it's cut throat..

her business partner gave up her job and went full time on the patch business - wonder if that’s still the case? It’s hard to imagine they make enough profit to support 2 families.
But luckily Welshbot has her FL business to fall back on!!!

Wow got back to botting but under her married name then not her current name as in ..... for the trees. Pretty sure Uber is her upline I wonder if she's been resurrected for a nefarious reason, stacking or funnelling sales with a bung?

Please can you remind me of the FB Group FL post this info please I think I have been blocked, thank you.

Planty Plasters has been on some shopping channel recently, don't know which one, but it appears that Tik Tok haven't been playing nicely.

Yawns "manifested" those bloody awful foam tiles, unfortunately she's got her dogs traipsing all over them.

Yawn is so unaware isn’t she

personally as soon as I say the dog roll on the matting I thought yuk imagine having your nose close to the floor exercising when the dogs come in and make it smelly

*saw the dog
