Hi Everyone, just a friendly warning...

 A member  (formerly known as banned member adulttoysadj) recently posted a link to their "Favorite site": http://www.aussiepartyplan.citymax.com. (This 'favorite' site has no content).

 

We would strongly suggest you do NOT provide personal details or money to that site.

 

I have removed the original post (but most of you would have already viewed it first). Check out the site and post your opinions below:

Hi party plans.

Thankyou for the warning.

I will not be visiting her site as I believe she never had anything valid to contribute.

This is the best party plan site there is.

kindest regards

Hi Everyone,

I received an email regarding this site yesteday. It came from an enquiry from my website with the following -

Dear Website owner or guest,
One of our members has invited you to join our new Message board for all business, party planners and direct sellers, or join our mums and dads world forum today. Visit www.aussiepartyplans.net today. Place your company or consultant listing in our directory.
Thank you,
Aussie Party Plan Network
Admin The silly thing about it is that it was directly from Aussiepp site as they sent the email via my contact section in my website and yet I still had been invited. Not happy... as this person knows that I am on this site and of course I know she has been banned as if I owuld give her money to list with her let alone contribute on her forums. No way. One of the sections of this site is "frozen" fancy that due to "

This site is currently suspended as it is under investigation for potential violations of our Terms of Service. This does not necessarily mean that the site is in violation; some abuse notifications require this action due to the nature of the potential violation" (This is quoted from the site)

As I have been typing this and going back and forth from site to site the whole is has been frozen - fancy that.

Anyway that is my winge for the day but she watch out for you know who as I am sure she is bound to try something else as this is her 2nd attempt to make Australian party plan businesses look bad.

Cheers

Janine

partyplans replied:

Please do that 'mindhealth'... LOL. We would love to hear how lovely the admin are there.

  

You are getting much more inventive with your usernames adultoys.

The admin here are lovely too.. and 'switched on'.

partyplans replied:

I see you removed your own post...    Saved me the trouble!

Cant get past us!

   

For everyone else who missed it, MindHealth was telling us how she had no trouble with the other site and everyone should give it a go and the admin people there were fantastic!

 

Also funny how that was her first post on this site.. LOL!  at least have some tactics !

 

 

BTW: For new members/visitors.  'MindHealth'  is actually a former banned member with the username 'AdultToys'. Stick around, and our long-term members will tell you about it.   Never a dull moment on these boards!

indicolina replied:

What I dont get is, when does she ever have time to work her many businesses and do that new website and post?  and all the other stuff she does?

or is she superwoman too?

Janine replied:

Well PartyPlans thanks for spoting Mindhealth. But it goes to show how great your site is as she keeps on tying to come back.  Keep up the good work as this is a wonderful site with wonderful party planners and admin too. No other could bet it.

Cheers

Janine

AngelicaLyn replied:

As soon as i read the post from Mindhealth i had my suspicions that it might be adult toys. Thanks party plans for confirming it and acting on it too. As Janine has stated she is keen to get back on here or at least recruit many of us. We are all too smart to be sucked in by her.

Thanks again

Lyn

Hello Ladies,

I'm just wondering why this person was banned from this forum as I think she is in another forum and if so, I would like to warn them.

Thanks

Rita

SaucyKath replied:

Rita, if you told us what username she uses on the other forum - and what companys she has says she works with - we may be able to confirm its probably her.   She's used many different alias on here.

Of course Mr PartyPlans would be elaborate more.

Kath

mindhealth replied:

I really dont have the time to run a forum and everything else, i am to busy, i do a jewellery party plan business and of cause a direct selling business, i have enough time doing this and only because i do not have a booking today i am able to post this message, i dont want to cause any harm and am not being mean, i simply am not someone who wants to force you to join i am simply asking you to say yes or no, its up to you, i have simply wanted to say this for a while now and get very angry when people bad mouth me and what i do as a living, which is running my pp and direct selling business. I am busy enough trying to run a business than it is to be online creating forums and other websites. I only do one pp and one direct selling company and understand if you say these things since people have been doing this for a while and whenever something is made they blame me. People should check the facts before listening to other people, what people mostly say usually is 90% opinon and only 10% fact but my message here is the opposite, its fact by 90% and 10% opinon, my recoomendation to you is not judge or blame but to check the facts and if you have a probelm than simply email that person.

Janine replied:

Hi Mindhealth,

It has got the better of me and I was going to pm or email you but since there is alot here interested in finding out who you really are then I decided to post here.

An introduction from you would be nice and maybe that may would help. Just be up front about what business you do parties for and what direct business you are also involved with.

As for people bad mouthing you just be up front as if you are not adulttoys trying to come back into the site then you will not mind sharing info to clear you name. Adulttoys really bothered alot of the ladies on here and still is to a degree in some form or an other. There is no need for this and I ( I can not and will not speak for others) believe this is damaging party plan on forums and this in turn leads to us being sus about new members who seem to come across the same as adulttoys.

Please do not think I badmouthing you etc.. but I feel it is time to put to an end on actually who you are I do not like to feel badly towards someone who is genuinly here for the same reason as others and that is learn more about making our party plan businesses work and make wonderful friends along the way.

PartyPlans -- I hope I have not upset anyone posting this but I am sure I am not the only one wondering. Plus if anyone has any problems with this posting please pm me regarding this.

Regards

Janine
