Ok -- this is strictly a scenario in my head, and just curious as to how it would work out. It's not happening to me or anything -- just wondering how it would resolve.

Say my director was in danger of relinquishment. I am her first line and have two recruits. If my downline signed recruits, does that keep her directorship?

Taking it a step further -- say I recruit three more and become a director myself -- would that remove my people and their recruits as coutning towards qualifying her as a director and then and put her into a position of relinquisment?

Just want to know the logistics of all this. Thanks :)
 
Yes and yes.
 
Hi Jenn They need to be her own 5 qualifing recruits,for her to keep the title of Director.

Thanks Debbie -- you are always so informative :)

Here's my next question then -- if the director in question loses her directorship does she lose my and my line all together and we bump up to her director? If so, what if she gains it back -- do we go back to her or do we stay with who we bump up to? Is there like a statue of limitations lol. :)
 
Once you lose directorship, you lose your downline forever. You have to start from scratch.
