I need a head count of those officially banned from Pink Truth. Banned means you see a page like this when you try to log on:
You must leave your Pink Truth name in the comments or send it to me by e-mail YOURSELF. If you have a date of banishment, you can leave that too. If you want to tell your story, that’s great, but you don’t have too. I just want a tally so I can make up a list for a new page. I won’t say what you’re name is on my blog. I’ll just add your PT name to the list.

Well mine says incorrect password WTF? she has access to my password and changed it

PC reporting for duty – except that my existance has been wiped out completely. It doesn’t say I’m banned, it says I don’t exist!
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
I too was wiped out, and I never joined in the discussion board anyway.
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
My pinktruth name was neverpantyhose. sorry, left that out too. I think my banishment was in May 2007

Plzbustthepinkbubble was sadly wiped out of existence on August 19, 2007. HAHA!!

any of you bitches on yahoo IM?
cuz we gotta party goin on
lol
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
hello pc bitch, you know i am ya ho
Duh said
That’s nice! As soon as I hit the link for the discussion board, this is what I see. What do you guys see? The public discussion board threads?
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
I haven’t tried in a while, let me go look
PC said
I see a few threads at the top, but you have to login to see the rest. That’s when I found out I don’t exist
lol
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
Mine says,
“Sorry Guest, you are banned from posting or sending personal messages on this forum.” LOL
formerlyPLZ said
For me it won’t show anything. It says that the board I’ve selected is not valid.
mrsmetaphor said
I’m not banned as far as I know. Apparently, though, according to what Tracy has told me, if someone “requests” to leave then she does delete their account and “bans” them. So, I have no idea if this means now that I’ve written my post that I will also be deleted. I guess it just depends on what Tracy wants to do with it all. It’s a private forum after all, not a democracy.
FreeFromPT said
Mine says I’ve been banned. I shouldn’t exist either – same as PC. Both of our names are black.
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
MRS. You can go ahead and say the words out loud. If you haven’t already, you WILL be banned. It’s just a matter of how long it takes her to do it. It’s proabably already done.
BITCHES!
formerlyPLZ said
It took her a few days to wipe me off. I had reading “privileges” until this morning

I was under fightingfatigue – I think it says I don’t exist.
inmkbutsmart said
I was banned officially on January 14, 2007. I think I might have been the first. My name was and still is inmkbutsmart.
snapya-fingers said
formerlyPLZ-your name is still in pink and your title is member.???
FreeFromPT said
That means she’s just banned, not “dead”. She still counts as a # for members (don’t want that # count goin down now do we? That would look like water draining out of a bath tub, can’t have that!).
Licious said
My name was Licious on the board. I was banned but not dead. My sources tell me I still show as a member.

May 18, 2007. I used to get the “banned” message, but now I get incorrect password, for what it’s worth. I was formeravonlady.

why on earth were you banned again? can’t keep up..
Judi said
I was banned as:
Judi
Tom’swife
Ophelia
Therese
Used2BPink said
I was banned late this Spring sometime. I had not posted, nor had any disagreement with TC. Rather I am a member of PLH brainstormers and once TC left that forum she felt the need to ban most of us. Or at least those of us who didn’t follow her immediately.
Whatever. She can bite me.
PC said
LMAO @ Judi
((hugs))
FreeFromPT said
HEY! Tom’swife gave me bad traderfeedback.
Used2BPink said
LOL Judi. I was also banned as OnceWasRed (I think that was it…)
I never posted, but was trying to read all the hoopla about Erin. 🙂
I lasted about 15 minutes. sure that useame still exists though…
Duh said
Hey Judi,
What’s your story? I haven’t heard about you yet.
PC said
Judi’s been around a long time. she’s the coolest bitch on two legs.
🙂
She Who Must Not Be Named said
PRDiva (and anyone else who got that message) all she had to do was go into your account and change your email, then try to log in as you to ‘reset’ your password. Then, if you try and get a ‘Forgotten Password’ email to reset your password, it goes to the bogus account.
She has hijacked your account, essentially. That’s not the first time she’s done that to you, is it PRDiva?
FreeFromPT said
She also did that to me SWMNBN.
snapya-fingers said
Crazy stuff-i feel that tc doesn’t have any real friends and feels the need to be in control and this is the only way she can do it-with pt. So sad. NOT!
It sucks that some of the ones who are banned still count for numbers-not really-who cares? They can come here with no worries!
Used2BPink said
I forgot to say what message I get:
“An Error Has Occurred!
Sorry used2bpink, you are banned from using this forum!”
Maggie said
My screen name was magy1959. Banned last week. My story and the open letter to Tracy are on my website.
prdiva4 said
OMG, SWMNBN! That’s so crazy! I guess that comfirms it 😉
Do we know each other?!
mrsmetaphor said
Maggie…your banning helped to put me over the edge.
prdiva4 said
Ok so let me get this. So she went and change my email without my permission and then try to log in as me to get my password?? UGH! Ok, I know she is the OWNER, QUEEN or whatever she wants to call herself, but from there to do that is plain WRONG.
Now my question is what would be her intentions with that?
FreeFromPT said
To read your PMs prdiva4.
PC said
lovely, like we didn’t already know she likes to read people’s PMs
I’m assuming that after she bans someone, she goes through and read all of their PMs?
what a lunatic. I love it.
prdiva4 said
OH really I thought she didn’t read PM’s hmmmmmmm!
Why? Was she trying to get info on why I left the way I left without a word or an explanation! HA! All I can say is PATHETIC!
The Former MKV/DGW/Cougar said
Well, I haven’t tried to log into PT for a while now. I tried earlier today as Cougar and it wouldn’t let me, but it didn’t give me an error message. So I’m confused. It could be that I just can’t remember my password (that happens when you’re mentally ill, ya know) Somebody who KNOWS told me that I indeed have been banned (aka “accidentally deleted”) LOL, but I have no idea if that is true.
Actually, for the record, I have no knowledge (first hand) of Tracy ever backstabbing me. I wrote for her and I gave her info. *gasp*, so I assumed she had an allegiance to me. I never heard from her again after I wrote my heart felt “goodbye” to the private discussion board group members. (It was then that I was told I was being blamed for everything but global warming)
In case some of you more serious types are all aghast at my numerous identities, PUH-LEEZE! I used to post as MKV on my own site and DGW on PT simultaneously. The reason I did that was because Tracy did NOT want me to direct traffic to the MKV blog, so I would always sign out of wordpress as MKV and then sign IN to PT as DGW. THEN, after a certain someone (M.R.) outed me on MKRules, I went underground for a while and resurrected myself as the cooler than shit COUGAR! I did have fun on PT for a while, especially in chat with my girls Suzy Q, NPH, Raisin, Blacksheep, STL, TNT, Mocha, Sickie, MKRealist (before she was booted), PinkFog, and many others.
So there you have it. If you care.
She's a MANIAC! said
LICIOUS!
I loved your name and I loved your posts. So many people have slowed their postings over there. I didn’t realize you had been banned.
What on earth for?
She Who Must Not Be Named said
PRDiva I mailed you a magnet.
Judi said
I am very cool.
Sickie/Happy/FreefromPT: I don’t think I gave you bad traderfeedback. Just bad karma.
Duh, I usually post as ‘Sup around here.
She Who Must Not Be Named said
Just to clarify – banning is public, but hijacking someone’s account… well, what do you think?
prdiva4 said
OMG! SWMNBN!
LOL
How funny!
*wave and hugs*
Duh said
WTF!! I want a magnet! Do you guys remember when Tracy had that contest? She said that anyone who brought a MK person to the discussion board would get a magnet. I did!!! I sent someone over there, and guess what? Did I get my magnet? Hell to the NO!
I sent two MKer’s over there actually. And from what I hear they are VERY active members. They also happen to copy and paste shit for me like a couple of champions. Where’s my fucking magnet!!???
She Who Must Not Be Named said
Do you not love the irony of my name?
You are one of the few who saw how I kicked tracy’s ass… he he he.
prdiva4 said
Cougar, wow that’s sick. The nerve of her to make you change your username.
That’s insane.
She Who Must Not Be Named said
Duh, this was a breastfeeding magnet… and I am fresh out of them.
Duh said
Do I have to make someone breastfeed to get one?
prdiva4 said
OMG! LOL YES! I wished I wouldn’t opened my eyes back then.
You are so funny! SWMNBN! 😉
She Who Must Not Be Named said
PRDiva, I knew your silence was a sign of your struggle with the whole thing. I just like taking credit for kicking her ass and getting ‘ghetto’ first… he he he.
Duh, if you send me a photo of you making someone breastfeed, I might try and get you a magnet.
prdiva4 said
I meant to said I wish I would’ve LOL
prdiva4 said
You know what? you are right on point my silence was a stuggle, i just happened to listen to the wrong person!
😉
She Who Must Not Be Named said
Almost EVERYONE HERE has struggled with loyalties to Tracy. You’re weren’t the first, and you aren’t the last… there are many more to come. Hopefully this blog and PTLies will help rescue a few people before they get burned too bad.
Personally? I never got full in with TC. We never emailed or PMd… I think her words were that I was nothing to her, not a friend and never would be. That was when I was kicking her ass. See, part of her strategy is to use what she knows about you as a weapon, either to manipulate you into her bidding OR to throw in your face and make you look like an idiot when you stand up for yourself.
Like saying she would never be my ‘friend’ … that was supposed to hurt my feelings or something?
No tears here. I have real friends in my real life!
FreeFromPT said
Judi – it was traderfeedback cuz you didn’t have enough posts to give karma. It was the funniest thing to see my traderfeedback with a comment that says – you are not a nice person. LOL LOL I was like WTH????
FreeFromPT said
Hey coug! Man, you like REALLY don’t exist! LOL
She Who Must Not Be Named said
You know what? Even though I never signed up at PT, I feel banned because no one can look at the forum unless they’re a member.
So basically, she has how many members versus the 6 BILLION ‘banned’ people?
Yeahp.
PC said
SWMNBN: if she uses what she knows about you as a weapon, how come she never did that to me? I mean, when I was pregnant she would scream at me for blabbing stupid stuff, and then she said I must just be dumb because I was pregnant — you know, hormones.
At the time, my head really was reeling sometimes, so I took that insult as if it was handing me a treat. Like, I’m an idiot but it’s just temporary. LOL
Other than that, she never used anything against me. 🙂
She Who Must Not Be Named said
She never used what she knows about me, she doesn’t know much… I mean as far as hacking into accounts, also… I swear she has a big excel spreadsheet where she keeps notes on everyone, different aliases, email addresses, passwords… I bet she even has a ‘friend’ or ‘foe’ classification system.
Judi said
Well, you weren’t nice. You needed to know that.
FreeFromPT said
I had never talked to you! I don’t even know who you are.
mrsmetaphor said
Good Lord you guys fight more than my kids and they are champs. Judi/Free..work it out or play in seperate rooms and no TV for week.
I, myself am taking a week off the internet. I think this migrane is internet related.

I don’t blame you Mrs. M. Take a break, but please come back!
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
MKV/DGW/Cougar ~ Good to see that you have finally told peeps who you are. Doesn’t it feel so good to be free? hahahaha.
For the record, DGW was da bomb on chat. Just the name alone, Director Gone Wild is enuff to crack my shit up yo.
Anyway, it’s like old times in here….well almost…until SuzyQ realizes what a dip shit TRacy is. Then it really WILL be like old times.
I lurve me some Cougar!
BITCHES!
Dizzy from the Dastardly ways of Tracy said
And Free….who gives a rats ass if someone gave you a bad feedback. Let it go. You have tons of positive feedback I’m sure, you hooked a sista up when I sold my MK shit.
BITCHES!
FreeFromPT said
You’re right dizzy! Sorry bout that. Judi, I apologize. If I wasn’t nice to you at some point, I am sorry.
Carry on…..
I.Know.The.Real.Sickie. said
Take a break M and then come back. You are cool.
Sickie (or whatever the hell you are going by now) you were not nice to a lot of people. You threw a lot of people under the bus so you wouldn’t have to answer for your own actions. You would know me right away if I let you. But you have lied about me and used information I gave you in pleasent adult conversation to turn people against me. For that, I will not trust you. I forgive you, but I will not trust you. I am glad you are not under TC’s thumb (if that is infact the truth now) but you need to understand that the people you burned will not be quick to be your friend.
For the record: I was never a member at PT and will never be. I hate TC. I never supported her or stroked her ego. The people saying “well, we all did it” are wrong. I didn’t do it. I was a bystander who was caught in the line of fire, and for that, I will resent BOTH side of the war.

Dizzy, if there are any more chats between TC/FS while Suzy’s present, I can’t imagine she’ll stay around too much longer. A mother should never have to witness that. Ever.
The Cheese Stands Alone said
I was banned in mid May when I recruited Zoe to come on over here. I can just see the boards that any random guest can see. If I try to log in it tells me I’m banned from using the forum.
The thing is……I don’t remember ever posting using my PT name. I sent a very cryptic PM to Zoe and asked her to send me an e-mail offline to one of my Yahoo accounts.
So that was it. No posts. One PM. BANNED!
Duped said
Yo…lots of reading to catch up on from 3 days without wireless access (thankfully, dh fixed that last night!).
I am no longer able to log on to PT, however, I requested that my account be terminated. I found some things out about TC that turned out to be quite true, and PUR made a complete ass of herself out to me, so I asked TC to remove me.
Okay, back to reading…you gals were busy this weekend! Fuckin’ righteous. 😛
PC said
OKAY!!!
SOMEBODY answer this question clearly, once and for all:
was it TRACY COENEN rubbing her virtual chest on SuzyQ’s son in the chat room??
ARE YOU KIDDING ME? AND SUZYQ IS STILL ON PT????
ex-PTer said
SWMNBN – are you shitting me? an excel sheet that has everyones password and notes? ferfuckssake, that’s … absolutely … obsessive/paranoid.
she’d be a good psych case study [i think someone made that comment before, if so, i’d like to make that as a reiteration].
and TC wants FS? That’s disgusting.
PC said
she would be an EXCELLENT psych case study, or even a PhD dissertation on what people with paranoid disorders do when given any kind of power
LOL
Dana said
On my work computer, I get the “Sorry, Guest, you are banned from using this forum.” I don’t know what the date of my boot was, but it was the same day I signed up. Oh, and I hadn’t posted anything, so I think I was banned at a time of paranoia and at the time I didn’t know she’d be able to tell that I had come directly from this site. Or maybe Me’s site. I don’t know what site.
Or I could have been banned because I had commented on the actual blog posts before. But I had never really been pro or anti MK. Kind of neutral. Like I think some PTers had good points, but some very flawed logic as well. And I think MK has some positive qualities, but the corruption is more widespread than many in the company want to admit.
But bottom line, I don’t really know when I was banned, but I think it was April or May? And I don’t remember my screen name, but it wasn’t Dana.
MKIBC said
Hey Dizzy, if you are Neverpantyhose then you owe me an apology and I get to say, “I told you so!!”
MKIBC said
Hey “IKnowtherealSickie,” so do I. She is crazy at best and psychotic at worst. I beleive she is a truly evil person. Whe was relentless in her attack of me all because I didn’t agree with her and dared to point out her hypocrisy.
PC said
are you guys MK ladies who love the company? Because if so, you’d probably say the same of me.
I think MK is a big scam and most people lose money, and I don’t think it matters how hard you work.
🙂
Is that what you meant? Or are we talking about something more personal? If so, I’m gonna stay outta this one.
Dana said
PC, I would disagree with you, but I would say that it appears many in MK right now are scam-artists. I also don’t think it’s possible in this day and age for many people to make a living off of MK. I think there is too much emphasis on recruiting leading to over-saturation and the market being flooded with front-loaded consultants selling at 50% off, making it hard for those of us who want to sell at a smaller discount but still make money. I think MK is a fun hobby, but not a hobby that costs me money, but one that I can make some money on. However, I don’t think Mary Kay is for everyone. I would, however, dispute the claim that no matter what, 99% of the people in MK will have to lose money. If new recruits do not purchase inventory but simply buy what they sell, or even a modest $200 of inventory, they will make money right away. Again, not a lot.
I view selling Mary Kay as something I do when I feel like it, when a client wants it, or when I need a little extra money. I don’t plan on replacing my finance career with a MK career.
I also think there is a lot of truth to the criticism that a lot of recruits are people who should have never been recruited. In my opinion, you should go by InTouch’s guidelines. If someone owns one MK lipstick and has never even been a hostess, they really aren’t someone who should be recruited. Yet, so many are.
snapya-fingers said
She’s a MANIAC-I want SuzyQ here too-then it will be like old times. So I wonder how I am doing over there…I sneaked on here today-don’t know if I can there yet-had a break. Hahaha!
p.s. GO MrsM!!!!!
PC said
LOL Dana
and why is it that all those women who “aren’t cut out for MK” are recruited in the first place?
If recruiting a successful downline were a real possiblity, then there would be no need to recruit everyone you can get your hands on.
nevermind. i don’t care enough to debate this on Duh’s blog – it’s been too many years now that I’ve been typing the same stuff over and over again. I just thought that someone was ripping on Sickie because she said something negative about multi-level marketing, in which case I was going to defend her. Or at least defend myself. ha ha
PC said
I think someone should conduct an experiment: try to send PMs to as many people on PT as you can, with Duh’s blog addy. and ptlies too, ha ha
then see how long it takes for Tracy to figure out what you’re doing, and ban you.
it could be fun. Like watching the mice run around the cat.
FreeFromPT said
MKIBC and I.Know.The.Real.Sickie – Please accept my apology for doing you wrong. And yes, I must be crazy to have stayed on PT that long – we can all agree on that.
I still don’t like MK’s biz plan, but I’m done debating it. I don’t even hate MK anymore *gasp*. I don’t want to join again either.
PC if someone sends a PM to this blog or PTLies it shoes up as **** – so people need to learn how to override the moderation. As in – some call me duh . word press . com – and tell them to leave out the spaces. It’s the only way around it. I can’t even remember all the words that are moderated out anymore.
ex-PTer said
PC – to have that be extremely effective, it has to be someone well known within the community so we have a similar reaction to sickie’s banning.
then we can prove that tracy really does read your PM’s.
although, you’d have to send it to people that are new to the board, not members that are tracy’s minions because they’d hit the “report to moderator” button and the plan would go into shambles.
The Therapist said
Are you telling me that the private messages are filtered for content, that if you put this blog addy in your message it would be blocked???
be creative then. s0m3ca11m36uh AT w0r6pr3ss D0T you know the rest. Can you figure out what the 0,3,1,6 digits are supposed to be?
PC said
yes she has the Pms and comments filtered for content. She’s Teh Cray Zee, as we;ve discussed at length LOL
yeah ok. well I was just thinking if we know a traitor on PT who’s willing to send some PMs to the newbies, we should try it. ha ha
Anonymous Lucy said
Anyone interested in having a private, comfortable place where you can meet back up with your ex-PT pals and friends without the prying eyes of TC or any current PTers, email tenace5686@mypacks.net .

Yeah, but as soon as they do it and get found out, they’ll be banned too. Not a bad way to go.
She's a MANIAC! said
PC, yes, TC was in the chat room with FS and Suzy Q. All that was described went down, and more.
And I mean went down. 😉
FreeFromPT said
LOL on the s0m3ca11m36uh AT w0r6pr3ss D0T – pretty soon she’ll have all the letters and numbers *** out. What a fun time that will be on PT.

AAAAAHHHHHHH!
And SuzyQ is still over there? What – did she tell her son to take it like a man in the chat room, so the Queen Nutcase doesn’t stab his mom in the back? LOL
Criminy this is far worse than I thought. Now she’s molesting people in her chat room. Good God.
She's a MANIAC! said
If they can speak entirely in emoticons and understand each other, I’m sure they’ll have no trouble deciphering *** *** ********* *** ******** **** *****.
Maybe one of the mavens will work on it.
Dana said
With his mom in the chat room she was talking suggestively to him? Ewww!!!! Cyber sex with your mom and her nutcase “friend” aka puppet master!
ex-PTer said
ew.
i bet that she’ll start adding more words that cannot be seen, either that or add a translator so that every post is translated to fit tracy’s acceptable speech.
So a simple message like this:
It really depends on how you work an MLM, if you can do it successfully, and ethically, then I don’t see a problem with that. But once you step into unethical behavior, that’s when I find it wrong.
will turn into something like this:
MLM’s suck. Tracy rules. I love Pinktruth! *PT RUELS*
Duped said
Exactly my point on another thread. The whole “Mom’s reading and watching me jerk to this psycho” is seriously ghetto. I mean, I am the Queen Ditch Pig amongst my friends, but this is seriously fucked up. Fucking gross. *shudder*
*happy face* *running smiley* *smiley’s hugging* *dancing hot peppers* All that makes me want to literally puke up my yummy lunch I just had…to think I took a part in that happy-asshole shit once. Make me want to tell myself off. 😛

Maniac, I’m glad you like my name. It is my husband’s nickname for me.
The fact that they even entertained the idea to speak using only emotocons is laughable. Even worse than that was that some actually understood what they were saying.
flycat said
Duped, I know exactly what you mean. All this Tracy is awesome, dancing pepper shit makes me wanna declaw myself! It’s almost like PT sucked their brains out with a straw.
mrsmetaphor said
I don’t think the pm thing will be effective. Newbies are probably just as apt to hit “report to mod” button as anyone else. Honestly…I just think time will play itself out on this. Either Tracy changes her ways and grows some real courage or the site will die. It may yet change. It would have to be a pretty big change, more than just a new template for the website and it would have to be proven over time…
I think it’s a pretty big stretch that things will turn around. That kind of character work is pretty major. It’s not impossible but it would have to be her main focus for a length of time.
Kit said
Word is that PUR LOVES to hit the mod button.
My Cat Came Back said
I guess sending the PM’s would be equivalent to their supposed passing of pinktruth.com cards. All is fair 😉
Dana said
I think PMs would be the equivalent of spamming unitnet sites and sending mass e-mails…….. 🙂
princessedamame said
PC –
I was banned for this reason only – before this I was not a “pot-stirrer” on PT, and rather enjoyed the conversation (before it completely tanked): the day before I was banned, someone named “TK” was “talkin’ trash” and spouting the PT party line on Me’s site. I surmised something along the lines of “TC…TK…Tracy Coenen…Tracy Koenen…hmmmm. Wonder if this will get me banned…?”
It did.
princessedamame said
Does anyone else see the further similarities between PT and MK:
On PT re: MK: “Wooooooooooooooooooooottttttttt!!! I can’t log in to InTouch!!”
Here, re: PT: “Wooooooooooooooooooooottttttttt!!! I can’t log in to PT!!”
Y’all are some crazy (but not Cray Zee) peeps. But at least I’m honored to count yself in your number 😉 (add other appropriate food-based emoticons here)
