Total waste of time, and irritating to the users.

Sending spamdonations is as simple as incrementing a counter and as
cheap as minimum spend * number of customers. Nothing e-gold can do to
stop it either, except screw up micropayments by raising the minimum
spend.

On the other hand, making people pay to avoid being spammed by some
official list will just annoy the hell out of them, and make them switch
to GoldMoney.
