system. 3. There is an intersection between the set of GSR Directors and the set of e-gold Ltd Directors. 4. e-gold Ltd totally agrees (see your comments below) that a vibrant, diverse exchange market for the currencies it issues is and will always be in its best interest. 5. GSR bootstrapped the worldwide exchange market for the currencies e-gold Ltd issues by offering sweetheart deals to those who were willing to hang out their shingle and make a market. Perhaps you could view our recent Spot straddling move as tough love. :) Or if all that mushy stuff grosses you out, try this: When you think of e-gold, think... AUG When you think of e-silver, think: AGG When you think of e-platinum, think: PTG When you think of e-palladium, think: PDG Then reread: http://www.wikipedia.org/wiki/Exchange_rate I never got any response to the issues I raised in my letters. I think e-gold needs a vibrant exchange provider network for worldwide coverage and for providing a wide variety of ancillary services. I will also say that Omnipay's pricing methodology isn't exactly transparent on how many percent you are paying on outexchanges unless you work out their rates compared to spot with a calculator. [...] OmniPay Bid, Ask and Spot are posted here: http://www.omnipay.net/currentexchange.asp Applicable rates are also quoted on preview screens (for all types of exchange) prior to confirmation, as are OmniPay's precise fulfillment amount expressed in the currency units applicable to the fulfillment amount. And in the unlikely event the User doesn't know what calculations to perform on his calculator [:)], we specifically provide these on OmniPay preview screens as well. [Ever since we started straddling Spot - not in response to this post!] That's pretty transparent! Regards, Reid Jackson Managing Director, GSR Director, e-gold Ltd P.S. Want to part with e-gold AUG at Spot? Then buy a book, or a pocket knife, or a magazine subscription, or webhosting, or handmade jewelry, or a vacation to the Caribbean, or a coffee maker [or whatever...] from one of the many merchants who prefer Better Money (TM). Exchange services aren't the only businesses that accept AUG! P.P.S. Want to lay your hands on e-gold AUG at Spot? Then *accept* (nay, prefer!!) e-gold AUG for your goods or services.

~ Create your OmniPay User today at www.omnipay.net! ~ New OmniPay Features (deployment early 2003) We are presently in transition to a feature packed, User based system featuring: - Discounted Exchange Rates - Memorized Payees - Reports of your exchange activity normalized to the currency of your choice The Transition ** (now through early 2003) Our new system will require e-mail, postal and e-gold account validation as a prerequisite to access our full complement of exchange services. e-mail and e-gold validations take only seconds to minutes to accomplish; however, postal validations move only as fast as the mail. Thus, to avoid service interruptions to our valued customers, we are delaying full deployment of our new application to allow you ample time to: - Create your OmniPay User (2 minutes) - Validate your e-mail address (2 minutes) - Validate your e-gold account(s) (30 seconds per account) - Validate your postal address (your guess is as good as ours :) Validation Details ** ~~ e-mail validation (already in effect): Your e-mail address is your OmniPay User name, and is used to communicate with you regarding your exchanges. ~~ e-gold account validation (already in effect): OmniPay requires that you prove control of e-gold accounts you use for InExchange to help us prevent fraud and eliminate fulfillment errors based on incorrect instructions from you. ~~ Postal mail validation (grace period through end of transitional phase): OmniPay will require that you validate your postal address as a matter of routine due diligence. Access to our exchange services will be limited until postal validation has been completed. In particular, InExchange will not be available until you have validated your postal adddress. Validation and Lost Passphrase resets * For your security, our requirements for resetting a lost passphrase are very stringent: You must pay a small fee via a validated e-gold account and prove that you control both the e-mail and postal mailing address in your User Profile. These requirements are already in effect; therefore, please be sure to keep your User Profile information current at all times! Validation and Loyalty Discounts At the conclusion of the transitional phase, we will offer exchange rate discounts based in part on your previous exchange history with OmniPay over the past year. Prove that you control the e-gold accounts you have used for OmniPay exchanges and enjoy better rates as a result!

Users of the e-dinar interface to the e-gold system (www.e-dinar.com) are presently affected as follows: 1. e-gold accounts may continue to be created via the e-dinar interface. 2. All e-gold accounts created via the e-dinar interface may continue to be accessed via the e-dinar interface. 3.

[e-gold-list] Turing challenge and Access Controls
e-gold Ltd. is pleased to announce the deployment of additional security features benefiting all e-gold Users: *** Feature1: Turing number challenge must be successfully met for e-gold account access via web or shopping cart interfaces. Comment: Turing numbers (in this context) are random numbers presented in a graphical format that prevents the numbers from being machine readable. Benefits: 1. Foils passphrase guessing attempts by robot programs. 2. Prevents account level denial of service attempts by robot programs. User action required: 1. No action is required by User to implement this security enhancement. 2. However, we recommend that Users change passphrase to one longer and more random if warranted (see security links provided below). *** Feature2: Access to e-gold accounts via Automation and Phone interfaces can be configured via web interface, with a default configuration of disabled. ~ Comment: Use of Turing numbers is not feasible via automation interface because Turing numbers can't be machine read. They are not feasible for the phone interface because the screen resolution of most phones is inadequate to support this technology. Benefits: 1. Users who do not use automation or phone interfaces can disallow access to their account(s) via interfaces that do not issue Turing number challenge. 2. Users who require access via automation interface can enhance security by restricting automation access based on IP number. 3. Users who require access via phone interface can enhance security by restricting phone access based on phone number. User action required: 1. No action required if User does not require access via automation or phone interfaces. ~ 2. Users who require access to e-gold accounts via automation and/or phone interfaces should: - Configure access via e-gold web interface (required) ~ - Change passphrase to one longer and more random (recommended - see security links provided below) ~ Grace Period Effective 2002-01-11 12:00 AM GMT (approximately), access restrictions will be enforced. Existing automation interface Users are encouraged to configure automation access to their e-gold accounts before this grace period has elapsed to prevent access denials to their applications. *** Security links: When it comes to the security of your money and personal information, there's no substitute for education!

On Sunday December 23, 2001 9:00 AM EST, the e-gold website will experience downtime in order to implement hardware and software upgrades. When the e-gold website emerges from this downtime: * e-metal Spends ordered via the e-gold Account Manager interface will be expressed by default in terms of grams (previous default selection was USD). * Users may continue to express e-metal Spends ordered via the e-gold Account Manager interface in terms of USD (or other National Currency units), but this selection must be actively made by the User when ordering Spend. * Users will be able to express e-gold Spends in terms of Euro (EUR).

[e-gold-list] Overdue Moderator Post
And now, a few words from your host, owner-e-gold-list. That would be me, by the way, for those who were wondering (with good reason) if such a person even existed. I don't have a problem with posts concerning: 1. Other gold backed currencies Other gold backed currencies have emerged in response to e-gold. Discussion pertaining to these currencies is arguably on-topic and of interest to e-gold Users. 2. Criticisms of e-gold Criticism of e-gold is by definition on-topic. Sometimes such criticism results in needed change. Other times the criticism seems to emanate from trolls. Although I confess it would be richly satisfying to bounce trolls, it's a tough call to know when this is appropriate, precisely for fear of suppressing constructive criticism. Hence, trolls are permitted to congregate under the bridge, but are not generally taken seriously by anybody with a modicum of discernment. In fact, troll drivel seems to be a tonic for some, inspiring some of the best e-gold rants I've seen. All things work together for good on the e-gold-list. 3. Advertisements Advertisements from e-gold accepting businesses are not only welcome, they are encouraged! I suggest (see rules) that more than twice a year would be excessive. I should have loosened this up a bit ages ago, still it might be worth noting that if people are expressing annoyance at the mere sound of your online voice, that perhaps you should kick your self promotion down a notch or 2 (or 3). I have to confess that I personally find JP May extremely entertaining, even when his self promotion mojo is in overdrive (perhaps especially). This is the very activity that makes electrons bump together, one day (soon) to reach a rolling boil. One exception - advertising is not welcome from high yield investment programs, prime banks, and other businesses that make promises that are not possible to keep. Tiresome debates have raged on in the past about the rightness or wrongness of these so-called investment opportunities. Feel free to peruse the archives for the excruciating details (as opposed to opening up this topic yet again): http://www.mail-archive.com/e-gold-list@talk.e-gold.com/ http://www.mail-archive.com/e-gold-list@free-market.net/ I think I don't say much above that is not well known to anybody not pretending to be asleep. Actually what follows should not be any big mystery either. I do have a problem with posts in/with/containing: 1. HTML format 2. e-mail attachments * 3. Excessive, inconsiderate citations 4. Off-topic advertising (as in don't accept e-gold) This is why the list has *rules* which specifically address these areas. For those who don't recall the rationale for these rules, please see: http://www.mail-archive.com/e-gold-list@talk.e-gold.com/msg01245.html ** * New improved reasons overdue. Care to take a wild guess what those might be? ** I'm sure the consideration I'm displaying in using this citation technique won't be lost on everybody. And finally, my personal pet peeve... 6. Posts which ignore the long standing Golden Rule (yes the pun has *always* been intended), which states: --- begin quote 5. Before posting, ask yourself: Is my post likely to be of interest or value to a broad range of people from around the world who are interested in the topic of e-gold? If in doubt, please don't post. --- end quote Of the examples I provide to illustrate this concept (some would say the very distillation of all moral precepts), attention spans appear to trail off right before this one: --- begin quote * Political stuff. It could be argued that the very concept of e-gold is of a libertarian bent, but that is not license to use this list to get people to write their senators or whatever, no matter how important you think the cause is --- end quote Please pause for a moment of silent introspection to contemplate: Could he mean... Moil!? Chances are the answer is ***OBI!***. Your views are bound to come out in the course of discussion - this is not a problem - protracted, non-e-gold related arguing of the fine points of your political philosophy are what fester into problems, even for the long suffering. I'm not a fan of topic Nazis, but there is a limit, as many of you have made a point of reminding me (in your own special ways), both on and off-list. On a related note, did you know that... the first 3 posts of new subscribers are moderated (ever since the e-gold list moved in-house)? This is not generally a topic Nazi type activity. Rather, I take this opportunity to squelch blatant HYIP shills to prevent this list from devolving into a [**] forum. I also squelch those who choose to delurk with yeah, me to type comments followed by scores of lines of unnecessary quotes. This moderation activity is quiet and beyond discreet - I don't even send offlist e-mail pertaining to it. After all, had the offenders read the rules they would have a pretty good inkling of the reason for the

Just a reminder... -Original Message- From: Reid Jackson [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] Sent: Wednesday, November 29, 2000 7:14 PM To: e-gold-list Subject: GSR to increase OmniPay InExchange Minimums Effective December 15, 2000, GSR will no longer accept OmniPay exchange orders from national currency to e-metal (InExchange) that are less than the following amounts: USD 3,000 AUD 5,000 GBP 2,000 CAD 4,000 DEM 6,000 FFR 19,000 YEN 278,000 CHF 4,000 e-gold Users who wish to exchange amounts less than these minimums are encouraged to visit the independent market makers listed on the Directory page at the e-gold website: http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/links.htm However, no minimum is applicable to OmniPay exchanges from e-metal to national currency (OutExchange); thus, e-gold users may continue to use OmniPay as a means to pay entities who do not yet have e-gold accounts (i.e. to pay the credit card bill).

[e-gold-list] GSR/OmniPay challenges American Express' Platinum-Colored Card
GSR/OmniPay challenges American Express' "Platinum-Colored Card" Melbourne, Florida, 11 October 2000 GSR/OmniPay ( www.omnipay.net ) announced today it will not abandon its trademark application for The Real Platinum Card, despite demands from American Express, owners of the mark "Platinum Card®". American Express, threatening legal action under the federal Lanham Act, objects that use of the mark "may imply to consumers that your card is "real" while American Express' "Platinum Card" is not." "A basic purpose of the Lanham Act is to protect consumers against the likelihood of confusion or mistake in terms of the source of goods or services It would appear that American Express' objection is more a concern that consumers will recognize a difference between the GSR mark and American Express' marks" relates James F. McKeown, of Evenson, McKeown, Edwards, and Lenahan, P.L.L.C., a prominent Washington, D.C. patent and trademark attorney spearheading the campaign for GSR. "The idea that someone might doubt whether the American Express Platinum Card is a real card is farfetched. It couldn't be more obvious that the term "real" in the GSR mark refers to "platinum" because the services are in fact based on platinum-backed electronic currencies." The initial release of The Real Platinum Card, scheduled for Q1 2001, will function as a debit card, enabling cardholders to fund purchases and cash advances from their e-platinum account while the recipient receives payment in their currency of choice. e-platinum is a privately issued worldwide electronic currency, 100% backed by platinum, that enables users to use platinum as money over the internet. e-platinum is one of a group of four precious metal-backed electronic currencies issued by e-gold Ltd., a Nevis Corporation, www.e-gold.com. GSR/OmniPay is also working with Standard Reserve to issue The Real Gold Card, a debit card connected to Standard Reserve AUG (grams of gold), a new electronic currency convertible gram for gram into e-gold®. The Real Gold Card is slated for public release at the upcoming Indian River Summit 18-20 October in Melbourne, Florida. GSR, Inc. was the original developer of e-gold, e-silver®, e-platinum, and e-palladium. GSR's new OmniPay service functions as a hybrid payment system enabling Users holding any of the e-metal®s to pay recipients who accept only national currencies. Douglas Jackson, MD, founder and Chairman of GSR/OmniPay explains "The point of using the mark "The Real Platinum Card" is precisely to distinguish it from American Express, whose so-called "Platinum Card" has nothing whatsoever to do with platinum. For us platinum is a metal, not a mere marketing metaphor. Perhaps to avoid misleading the public American Express could call their plastic the "Platinum-Colored Card". --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
[e-gold-list] RE: FORWARD: Buy e-gold using EZCmoney Gold-Age E-mail Slots
Hi Parker, Parker E.C. Bradley said on Tuesday, October 10, 2000 12:31 PM: For some reason the stuff I sent to the list yesterday hasn't shown up (it's been more than long enough), so here it is again. Hope it doesn't repeat. Checked the log for 10/9/00. Lyris received 2 messages from you that it rejected because you were sending from an address that you had not subscribed. Follows describes a solution for posting from multiple e-mail addresses: --- begin quote Date: Sun, 27 Aug 2000 21:20:06 -0400 Author: "Reid Jackson" [EMAIL PROTECTED] Subject: subscribing multiple addresses to e-gold-list Body: Lyris makes it possible to post from multiple subscribed e-mail addresses, while only receiving list mail to one of these subscribed addresses. Since Majordomo did not support this feature, I customarily manually approved and resent posts from non-subscribed addresses for people who I knew to be subscribed under another e-mail address. If I was delayed for whatever reason in reading my mail, then these posts were correspondingly delayed in going out to the list. Since Lyris makes it so much easier on subscribers with multiple e-mail addresses, I will no longer be forwarding posts from non-subscribed e-mail addresses. Therefore, please make sure you subscribe all addresses that you might need to post from, selecting "nomail" status for any that you do not wish to receive list mail to. --- end quote - Reid - --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

[e-gold-list] Re: C'mon guys! OR how to improve your SEX life
Deen Foxx said on Wednesday, September 27, 2000 8:08 PM: e-gold doesn't earn interest on anything. The only profit e-gold makes is selling the gold for more than they buy it, and a small storage fee. Reference: http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/qanda.html --- begin quote The e-gold system is designed to be absolutely free of any financial risk. There can be no debt or contingent liabilities associated with e-gold. For this reason, e-gold Ltd. does not possess any national currency of any nation and has no bank accounts. Thus, e-gold Ltd. is not able to offer currency exchange services. Instead, a growing number of independent exchange market makers [http://www.e-gold.com/unsecure/links.htm] around the world support exchange between various national currencies and e-gold, accepting remittances via credit card, bank wire, check, money order, Western Union, PayPal, eMoneyMail, and others. --- end quote - Reid - --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
