Well JMR, I appreciate that this program might cost e-gold quite a bit of money but frankly the referral fees we get are negligible and do not make any difference one way or the other to any promotion I do for e-gold. I promote e-gold to people because I like it. The only people I can imagine might get substantial benefit from the referral program are the operators of ponzis and HYIPs. Correct me if I am wrong, anybody... What I would much prefer (and happily pay a bit extra for) is to see e-gold providing a faster turnaround time on queries and having someone who is prepared to make public comments on non-technical issues. Take the question of audits for example: as you know, people frequently ask perfectly reasonable questions on this list and the only person who ever replies is you, and you always say you don't know, can't comment etc etc. But I think e-gold could really take off in a big way if you would only hire a full time PR person who goes out there actively targeting e-businesses and persuading them to accept e-gold. That need not even cost e-gold anything in the long run. That person's salary could easily be paid by using the existing progeny system. But they would obviously need some official authority to go out there and say they were representing e-gold, and probably some financial backing to get started.
