  Re the page view exchange service being suggested here.  I have used one
of these for some time, with some success.  Please note that the 'exchange
rate' (how many pages you must view to get your home page displayed) is
usually better than the 6:1 rate of Startblaze.

  At this time I'm displaying the index page for our Bricks of Gold
website.  The exchange service gives a 2:1 rate, meaning I view two pages
for every time my page is shown.

  I notice that someone else in the gold community is aware of page view
exchanges, because there is a rotating banner for e-Gold Ltd. running in
the top frame of the exchanged page.

  This exchange also sells exchange page views and one rotating banner ad
space. Their rates are from 10 cents to 4 cents per page view, with lower
rates for buying larger blocks.

  The banner space at the top of the 'home page' is much cheaper, since it
displays at 1:10 ratio and sells at rates beginning at 0.2 cent/impression
(this is where I'm seeing the e-Gold banner from someone else).

Their url is http://www.linkwars.com
You can purchase advertising here:

(sorry, clickbank doesn't accept gold, a serious lack on their part which
I hope they change someday...)

[e-gold-list] Opinion request

2001-07-02 Thread twpmarket

  I'm evaluating 3PGold for a piece in our Bricks of Gold eZine.  Their website lacks 
much current 'news', so I'm asking for some feedback from the e-Gold List readers.

  If you have experience with 3PGold, and are willing to share, please email me.  I'll 
guarantee anonymity, and completly understand if you're concerned about privacy.  But 
I'll state up front that I'm looking for publishable information, which means it needs 
to be verifiable.

  I'd also take (gladly!) a simple report on your satisfaction with their service, 
great, good, bad, awful... etc.  If I get enough responses, I'll post them as a poll 
result, but I think a minimum of 20 responses is needed to make it significant.  This 
list is a somewhat limited pool for polling.

  On a personal point, I'm not planning on writing 'hit pieces' ala the tabloids.  I'd 
much rather be able to report favorably on any business.  I certainly know that the 
GBE is too young to withstand much bad press. That being said, if a busines is a scam 
AND the evidence is there, tell us and help make it public knowledge.

[e-gold-list] Re: e-gold-list digest: June 20, 2001

2001-06-21 Thread twpmarket

The idea here is that E-Gold could set the price to allow businesses to
'Broadcast' messages to ALL account holders which subscribe to this
service,(and subscriptions would be added automatically, requiring the
user to turn them OFF manually -- maybe even at a cost to the account
holder).

  Let me get this straight.  You're suggesting that account holders be
CHARGED to refuse spam?  And you want e-Gold Ltd. to setup and run an mail
system that pushes email to EVERY account holders PRIVATE email address? 
I don't care how much you trust internet security (tongue firmly planted
in cheek), that is an open invitation to hackers.
  I use e-Gold because I really like the privacy designed into the system.
 Let's not break it just to make money.  Leave e-Gold alone and build your
own mailing list.

   FYI, I closed my account because of the excessive charge.  It
was one of the 'free'
accounts when I opened it and I had not yet funded it.  It did
take several days to
receive a reply to my request to close the account.  I will be
charitible and assume
they are swamped with requests to close accounts...

[e-gold-list] Fallout from the Bradley 'raid'

2001-04-07 Thread twpmarket

  One of the revenue sharing programs I use has rejected e-Gold as a
payment option because of these negative reports.  The media reports are
erroneously reporting the (and I paraphrase here) "e-Gold was raided". 
Unless e-Gold itself makes some serious effort to correct this, we all
could lose money-making accounts with firms that NEED to use e-Gold.

  Will e-Gold make some PR available to counter this negative press?  I
hope so, but it needs to be done yesterday.  If We had a statement from
e-Gold that we could send to countact bad reports, it would go a long way
toward making e-Gold fly.

 Hello,

The Standard Reserve shopping cart is the same as the e-gold shopping cart.  Just 
replace the www.e-gold.com with www.standardreserve.com.  Instead of having gold, 
silver, platinum, and paladium, the standard reserve shopping cart only has gold and 
dollar.  The PAYMENT_METAL_ID for gold is "1" and the id for dollar is "2".

[e-gold-list] Re: Warning on scam using e-gold

2000-10-13 Thread twpmarket

gary,  we'll have disagree here.  This usage of e-gold can only add bad PR to
the e-gold name.  e-gold should take action to prevent the use of their system
by these scams, and this is a scam no matter what your definition of ethics
happens to be.  I hope your defensive statements are not based on your personal
involvement in something like this.

gary wrote:

 Whether or not this is a "scam" depends on your definition of "scam".
 It is a pyramid and that is actually pretty well explained on the web
 site, anyone entering these programs who doesn't know how they work
 needs to stay off their computers.  It is just a form of gambling, for
 you to win, someone else must lose and that's how gambling works.

 I don't see why e-gold needs to be "protected" from these programs,
 e-gold is just a payment service and should stay out of account holder's
 business.  There is more than enough of that BS going on with banks
 these days.  Besides, if e-gold got "protected" from all of these sorts
 of programs, they would lose at least 75% of their business, if not
 more.

  It appears that someone is once again using e-gold for a 'gifting'
  club scam.  This is disquised as a loan program, but without any hope
  of refund.  This surfaced at the Scam Free Club website and I am
  reporting it here in hopes that someone at e-gold might take action.

[e-gold-list] Re: Warning on scam using e-gold

2000-10-13 Thread twpmarket

  What I suggest is that e-gold corp. recognise a potentially bad PR
situation.  I do not want e-gold to get the reputation of supporting
scam operations.  There is only so much one individual can do to
counteract this, it is up to the corporate side to see the problem and
act to distance themselves and their name.  My point is that if we and
e-gold do nothing, then the reputation will kill both of our
businesses.
  I'm asking for others to see the problem and join in asking e-gold
to protect themselves before it gets out of hand.  You are welcome to
disagree with me, so long as you don't support scamming via e-gold.
Dave Brooks

What action do you propose? How is it applied fairly and consistently
