"News Announcements

With the links to The Paragon Group in the posting itself!

Let's not get personal here, gentlemen!

Fortunately for all of us, VWD defined very strict rules in regards to what is and what is not allowed for Associates to do in their uVme business.

Everyone should obey these rules and only do things that are allowed.

Here's the quote for you from your uVme back office. If you go to your own uvme.biz site and click on "Legal" links you will understand what is allowed and what is not allowed.

I absolutely have no jealosy for those who are more successful. However, I am NOT trying to 'bite the hand that feeds you', like The Paragon Group did with copying uVme Blog in its entirety.

Unlike them, all the links in my signature are perfectly legal and allowed.

Here we go, I quote from your uVme back office:

"Associate Terms and Conditions...

An Associate is:
Not permitted to use the uVme trademark or corporate logo to promote his/her independent business except in authorised and uVme issued materials and literature;

• Not permitted to describe him/herself as a ‘uVme Independent Associate in a telephone directory or advertising literature;
• Not permitted to answer the telephone in any manner that may indicate or suggest that the caller has reached a uVme corporate office;
• Not permitted to record or reproduce materials from any uVme corporate function, event, speech, etc;
• Not permitted to reproduce any Company produced audio or video material or presentations;
• Not permitted to create, publish, or cause to be published in any written or electronic media, the name, photograph, or likeness of copyright materials or property or individuals associated with the Company without the written permission of uVme;
• Not permitted to publish or distribute any literature, materials or merchandise representing uVme or its products and services other than that which is provided by uVme and listed on the uVme price list: and
• Not permitted to register or use a URL or domain name including the name uVme other than the URL or domain name issued by the Company to the Associate for the purpose of promoting the uVme business."

Vwd rules are far to restictive however they have always been alright if you use the logos on your websites. You can always submit to head office for the ok.

Right Enough is Enough now.

This thread has been bought to my attention by several phone calls from members of the forum.

Whilst I am sure that you had only the best intentions, and its fantastic that you have an amazing amount of passion for uVme, any complaints should be sent (as you did) direct to uVme admin, and not discussed on a public forum.

I can't believe that other people's personal data on a public forum, phone number, postal address, email and full name. I understand that you want to get your own out there, but remember not to use anyone else's or in anyway direct or indirect make other peoples personal data public.

Remember that displaying that personal data can lead to many problems for the individual. Also reffering to a group, in anyway and linking it to fraud or fake stuff in general, can seriously effect people's income and their lifes.

I have gone through and edited all these posts, so they no longer display this kind of information.

This is the final post on this thread now, I on behalf of the forum would apprecaite it if no one else replies to this thread, or continues this discussion anywhere else.

Now lets go and build a business. Onwards and upwards people.
