[e-gold-list] e-gold filed for patent, 1998?

2001-11-16 Thread Joe Moorman

Scoop: Planetgold has dug up an e-gold business plan presented on the web 
site early 1998 which claims that e-gold entities attempted to patent 
e-gold at that time.

[e-gold-list] Australianisms

2001-11-16 Thread Ben Legume

It would be like if Americans said he got handballed from IBM 
(meaning fired)!

In Oz 'handballed' is usually used in a work-related setting when 
someone or (more likely) something is transferred to another 
department/person. Such as 'the report was a real bugger so I 
handballed it to that drongo JPM'.

And the US term Attorney applies here equally to solicitors and 
barristers. The main difference (apart from $300 an hour and up) is 
that barristers specialise in appearing in court (civil, criminal and 
administrative) while solicitors are more general purpose legal 
professionals. Solicitors can (and often do) appear in court also, 
although they also do the grunt work of writing up wills and 
contracts, sending threatening letters, filing papers etc. The 
term 'Queen's Counsel' (or QC) refers to barristers who are approved 
to work for the government, although in practice they get ridiculous 
amounts for doing private work. Unfortunately from my experience you 
need a QC just to be sure your counsel has basic competencies in 
legal matters (even then it is never a sure thing).

[e-gold-list] is sacked (means fired from

2001-11-16 Thread Metanoic

is sacked (means fired from
place of employment), that always gives me a laugh!  

Whomever;
I have heard this term all my life in America and around the world. I have
worked in international consulting, hired and fired many people.  It is a
common word used in DC environment and among any generation of people
working in the world and with with I have associated with since 1971-today.

I have worked with major consulting firms, government agencies and small
companies all over; owned my own firm and consulted too many to name.  The
term is often used in change.

What surprises me is that people are this forum don't know the word.  Maybe
they are too young, in some  field dominated by youth or reflection
employment skewed to the right(programming) or live in caves with wireless
feeds?

Sacked is quite common out there in the world where people work and live 20
miles beyond their local cave or town.

Hell, the dictionary recongnizes it as 3rd or 4th definition, as slang, and
not as a localized or country specific phase!!

[e-gold-list] Re: Cambist.net - BLOODY INCREDIBLE!

2001-11-16 Thread jpm

  Announcing the grand re-opening of Cambist.net Exchange Services! Our new
  system is completely, totally, utterly automated. This means a few
  clicks, and you can transfer your digital gold currencies from one to
  another, instantaneously!

Too cool. More good services needed for the long run.

It has to be said, cambist.net is the shit!

Some of ISL's programmers worked on it for Cambist, but I was not 
aware of all the features.

I just now made a payment **TO A FREELANCER**, using http://cambist.net.

My problem:

I owed someone who wanted goldgrams, $200.

But, ISL had only egold grams on hand.

Amazingly, with the cambist.net interface, **YOU CAN PAY ON TO SOMEONE**

I could not believe it!

I just entered pay to ... my supplier's goldmoney number .. in .. I 
selected goldgrams .. and an exact amount to pay to the supplier ... 
AND THEN I JUST PAYED CAMBIST IN EGOLD GRAMS.

IT WAS ACTUALLY EASIER THAN MAKING A PAYMENT IN THE NORMAL WAY!!!

Freaking brilliant!

I can't believe it. This is easily the coolest ERE in existence.  It 
shits on bananagold.  I'm sick.

[e-gold-list] special rates for Market Makers

2001-11-16 Thread Jim Davidson

Dear Michael,

As I know Tristan is very busy with ongoing upgrades to both the
GoldBarter.com and Cambist.net software services, please allow
me to interject here with a quick reply to your question.

PSSST!  special rates for MMs?

In general, yes!  We are happy to offer special rates and services to
market makers.  We also have a very substantial volume of business
for referral to market makers.

In particular, we have had inquiries in South Africa and Japan for
large volume transfers to e-gold.  We are not in a position to accept
these offers, as the customer prospects insist on in-country
transfers to banks local to them.  We don't have access to bank 
accounts in either South Africa or Japan, so if any of you market
makers do, we'd be happy to send along referrals with our
enthusiasm, for a piece of the action.

Cambist.net has in the past made preferred exchange rates
available to market makers who provide exchange services we
find valuable, and we anticipate continuing to do so.

We continue to offer service to those seeking automated exchanges
using our highly automated interface at Cambist.net.  In addition,
we have capability to accept transfers from US dollars, French
francs, Dutch Guilders, Euros, British Pounds (sterling, smirk),
Swiss francs, and Djibouti francs directly through our own network,
and Canadian currency through a long term associate.  We do 
accept checks, money orders, wire transfers, bullion, specie, and
other monetary units of exchange.  Like most of you, our experience
with Yahoo PayDirect has been better than our experience with
PayPal.

For the right client, we'll provide a number of services that we don't
extend to the entire market.  I think I speak for most of the vendors
on this list in saying that the business we're in has unique risks
associated with the non-reversable aspects of e-currency transfers,
that we're wary of placing too much of our business at risk for
unknown parties, and that we're also pleased by the competition
for monetary services represented by online metal backed currencies.

Caveat omni!  No other motto makes sense.

Regards,

Jim

[e-gold-list] Reminder re: Gaithmans is closing 11/21 to 12/03

2001-11-16 Thread Eric J. Gaithman

Ladies and Gentlemen, Clients, Competitors and Associates:

   Gaithmans Gold Nation, Inc. is pleased to announce that our corporate
offices,  bank accounts,  digital accounts, and all other transactional
activity will be CLOSED ( as in nothing will be processed ) during the
following times and dates:

  We will close @ 5 pm EST 11/21/01 (Wednesday) (Happy Thanksgiving!)

  We will not re-open until  @ 9 am EST 12/03/01  (Monday)

   Our closure will last for 12 solid days.  ( On the fifth day of closure,
my true love gave to me FIVE golden Troy Ounces...)   During this time,
absolutely, positively, without prejudice, all activity for Gaithmans Gold
Nation will halt.  No transactions will be processed.  No fundings will be
completed.  No outexchanges will be accepted.  In short, believe it or not,
we will be CLOSED. ( Our first, and long overdue, vacation since July of
2001.)

   This time period will allow our company to undergo a complete audit by
our third party accounting firm.  Our legal team will be updating our
website with new policies and procedures.New regulations recently passed by
the U.S. Government will be outlined as it pertains to our business.  New
affiliations and partnerships will be loaded to the website.  Most
importantly, our payment options will be revamped.

   **Please note: As of 11/21/01 at 5 pm EST, Gaithmans Gold Nation, Inc.
will NO LONGER accept any form of mailed payments.

This includes:

Money Orders
Postal Orders
ALL checks (Personal, Company, Corporate, Third Party, Affiliate
payment, Cashiers, and Certified)

   We will begin outsourcing this payment option to several of our newly
gained affiliates.  More information will be posted during our closure
period.

Gaithmans continuously strives to put customer service back into the
increasingly heavily automated, and often sterilized, internet e-commerce
financial environment.  We have several exciting changes forthcoming, some
terrific new partnerships to announce, and an expanded customer service
department to be deployed.  We will narrow our product offerings in order to
expand our client services personnel availability.  We share your
displeasure for voice mail, auto-responders, and extensive delays.
Gaithmans is out to provide Exceptional Customer Service to every single
client during every single transaction.  Period.

We encourage all clients and wholesale buyers to withhold payment to
Gaithmans (bank wires, Cash deposits, money orders, currency-to-currency
transactions) from Wednesday 11/21/01 at 5 pm EST  until Monday 12/03/01 at
9  am EST.  Any payments or transactions received during that period WILL
NOT be processed until 12/03/01. This posting shall serve as official notice
and will be posted again as a reminder. NO exceptions will be made to this
halt in processing.

   We wish each and every one of you: clients, competitors, colleagues,
associates, affiliates, issuers, and John Q. Public a warm and enriching
Thanksgiving on 11/22/01.  May you be surrounded by friends, family, and
loved ones and covered in gravy stains, whipped cream remnants, food
drippings and plenty of dessert spills .   ;0)

  May our governments find peaceful solutions to all armed conflicts so that
peace
may once again reign supreme.

   With Great Respect,

   The Gaithmans

[e-gold-list] Idiot or con-man?

2001-11-16 Thread Ben Legume

Haha. I was just reading some of the posts at freedomhound.com. This 
one takes the cake. Is this MLM idiot actually scamming people, or is 
he so stupid that he fell victim to one of the 'your e-gold account 
has been frozen please give us your password' spam scams? Or maybe 
both...

The_Wizard Tuesday, Nov 13 Edit Topic  
 
Dear Friends, fellow entrepeneurs, and net-goers.

I am greatly saddened by the fact that I led so many of you into the 
$20 Miracle Scam, I haven't been paid by them for almost a month, 
lost a great deal of money, and I relied on that money to help others 
into the program. I know some of you lost a great deal of money as 
well, but at least you got to keep your e-gold accounts. 

I sent them an e-mail and asked what was going on and I was told I 
had a big payment coming, it never came, then I was told I was 
manipulating the system and I was a sheister and crook, so they 
complained to e-gold and froze my account (although e-gold denies any 
such undoing, who else would say you have been frozen out of your 
account please contact us, I did and they wouldn't even give me my 
passwords back. So now, I'm trying to redeem myself along with the 
one they call GoldMaster I've talked with him a few times in a 
voice conference, he and I have the same vision, so hopefully he can 
help us all out, along with my support (I plan on redeeming myself). 
I'm sorry for all the false hopes I implanted into your minds, I'm 
sorry for dragging you all under (mainly the ones that paid 
themselves in and helped others under my influence.) 

I hope this situation, doesn't reflect too badly upon the e-gold 
world, there are some that have proven to be true.. 

I also hope that you don't take this out on the GoldMaster, I don't 
know why, but some of you have, if anyone is to blame it is me, you 
can vent at me all you want, cry over spilled milk, But I think the 
majority of us have learned a valuable lesson from this... DUE 
DILIGENCE.

The program we will be entering with GoldMaster is 4 years old, so 
hopefully it isn't going anywhere...

Again, I apologize and leave the fate of my reputation in your hands.

Sincerely,
The Wiz
