Teach the chatbot to handle recruiting objections honestly

Adds pyramid/Ponzi, 'if my 2 can't get their 2', affordability, 'not a
salesperson', and 'people quit' to both the chat.js canned KB and the
server.js AI system prompt (kept in sync). Answers distinguish this from a
pyramid (no pooled funds, same-tx peer-to-peer, verifiable on-chain), stay
honest (spillover fills the matrix but never qualifies; upgrades optional),
and never promise income. Keywords are apostrophe-free to match the punctuation-
stripped matcher.

a:()=>`Fair question — don't take anyone's word for it. We reviewed the complete verified source of the RM Circle smart contract and published a plain-language breakdown at <a href="/contract">rmcircle.team/contract</a>: the code can never change (no upgrade mechanism exists), member money never sits in the contract (every payment distributes in the same transaction), prices and payout rules are locked forever, and the operator's powers are limited to a short, honest list. Every claim links to the blockchain so you can verify it yourself. Code security isn't an income guarantee though — results depend on real participation, and POL's value moves.`},

a:()=>`Great question — and we checked it on-chain, not just in theory. The contract needs <strong>no one</strong> to keep it running: joins, upgrades, placement and every payout are fully automatic — no button anyone has to press, no expiry. If the creators walked away, lost their keys, or vanished, member payments keep flowing exactly as coded. We also verified that the founder, development and fee wallets are <strong>ordinary wallets, not programs</strong> — an ordinary wallet always accepts an incoming payment even if its key is lost forever, so a dead admin wallet can't jam a single member payment (at worst the project's <em>own</em> fee sits there uncollected). And the contract holds no stored balance — every payment is delivered in the same transaction. Full write-up in section 6 of <a href="/contract">rmcircle.team/contract</a>.`},

a:()=>`A pyramid or Ponzi scheme funnels everyone's money to a central company and pays earlier joiners out of later joiners' deposits — and you can't verify any of it. This is the opposite: <strong>no company holds the money</strong>. A public smart contract on Polygon sends each payment person-to-person in the same transaction it arrives, and you can read the code and every payout yourself on-chain — nothing pooled, nothing hidden, rules that can't be changed. It <em>is</em> a team build, so it takes real effort and carries real crypto risk — not a passive investment. But you don't have to trust anyone; verify it at <a href="/contract">rmcircle.team/contract</a>. No income is guaranteed.`},

a:()=>`Honest answer: everyone needs their <strong>own</strong> 2 to qualify — no one else's activity qualifies them. But a leg doesn't just dead-end. It's a team: your job is to help your 2 get theirs, and your upline earns as your team grows, so helping you win is in their interest too. And when uplines bring in more than 2, the extras <strong>spill down</strong> and fill the matrix beneath you — adding depth even when someone's own recruiting is slow. It only truly stalls if everyone stops helping, which is the one thing a team is built to prevent. (Spillover fills your matrix but never <em>qualifies</em> anyone — their own directs do that.)`},
{k:['afford','cant afford','can t afford','no money to upgrade','forced to upgrade','have to upgrade','keep paying','cant keep up'],
a:()=>`Upgrades are <strong>optional and self-paced</strong> — you're never on a timer, and you should never use money you can't afford to lose. You upgrade to catch payments from deeper in your team, and the first payments at each level are designed to help fund the next upgrade, so many people let team activity pay their way up instead of out of pocket. Start where you're comfortable and move at your own pace. See how it lines up at <a href="/how-pay-works">how-pay-works</a>.`},
{k:['salesperson','not a seller','sales pitch','know anyone','no one to bring','nobody to','not good at sales','bad at recruiting','hate selling','who would i'],
a:()=>`Good news — there's nothing to sell. You share a short video and your invite link, and the site does the explaining for you. You don't need a big network or a sales pitch — just a couple of people who are curious. The team even gives you ready-made <a href="/tools">promo tools</a> (posts, swipes, videos) so you're not starting from a blank page. Get your 2, help them get their 2 — that's the whole ask.`},
{k:['quit','they quit','people quit','drop out','give up','go inactive','stop doing','flake','lose interest'],
a:()=>`Some people go quiet — that's normal anywhere. But a position lives on the blockchain and doesn't vanish when someone steps back, and the team keeps building around a quiet spot (spillover can still fill beneath it). You don't need everyone active — you need a couple of real builders. Focus on the people who show up, go deep with them, and the leg keeps growing. Build with people who genuinely want it — and remember, no income is guaranteed.`},
{k:['spillover','spill over','spill','under me but not qualified','people under me','not my direct','passed over','missed payment','skipped','why am i not qualified'],
a:()=>`<strong>Spillover</strong> happens when someone's sponsor already has both matrix slots full — the smart contract then places the new member in the next open slot further down, which can be under YOU. Spillover fills your matrix and sets up future upgrade payments to your position, but it does <strong>not</strong> count toward your qualification: only people who join using <em>your</em> ID are your directs. That's why you can see 2 under you and still show 1/2. And important: upgrade payments only stop at positions that are qualified (2 directs) AND at the required level — otherwise the payment passes you by to the next eligible upline. Check your position on your <a href="/my">Member Dashboard</a> — spillover placements are tagged there.`},
