[e-gold-list] Re: Defense Fund - Update
Mr Evans has categorically disputed these alleged claims and is now struggling to find the 10,000 dollars required to defend himself and his family against this heavy handed attack as a reward for the loyalty he displayed whilst working for e-gold. What damages is GSR seeking? It's not possible to sue without seeking damages? --- You are currently subscribed to e-gold-list as: archive@jab.org To unsubscribe send a blank email to [EMAIL PROTECTED]

Chris Lord-Van Voorst Chris, People fear frivolous law suites now a days so you probably won't get much history from this list. However, this is a great example of the importance of reputation capital. This list is almost 2 years old now. Both on and off list, Charles and Ian have built impecable reputations. Doug has built a reputation also. Reputations are built by what one says and doesn't say. By what one does and doesn't do. On list and off. A single action can ruin the value built of years of what you say and do. Charles and Ian understand this and take their reputations dead seriously. I have no doubt about those two. I'd put money up for Charles in a heart beat. And I have. And, as a shareholder in GSR, I'm really, really dissapointed in Doug and Barry, and think Doug's CEO butt should be fired. I believe chairman of the board is the appropiate place for Doug's butt. I think these suits (according to a Bob Hettinga post to his list, Ian was served again in Edinburgh, They got Ian Grigg, too.) that Doug has decided to pursue are going to turn out to be a substantial negative for e-gold and the value of my shares. As Khurram Khan a while back on this list pointed out, there is no mystery to starting a private gold backed currency business. Time will tell. Did you miss this post?

To: WebFunds Users [EMAIL PROTECTED] L.S., On 21 May 2001 Ian Grigg announced that Systemics Inc. would cease supporting DigiGold on the 25th of May 2001 due to non-payment leading to termination of the contract between both parties. In a subsequent email this shutdown date was pushed forward by one week to give DigiGold users a bit more time to take action. Tuesday 29th of May an injunction was filed against Systemics to prevent us from shutting down the DigiGold Issuance Server. The matter was deferred until the 19th of June. This morning we went to court 9:00 (GMT-4). The judge heard the case in private chambers so we do not have all the details. We know our counsel proposed that the injunction could be sustained if DigiGold were to pay our operational costs. The opposition apparently did not accept this offer. The net-effect is that the judge decided to discharge the injunction and to award Systemics costs. We are still faced with an unfortunate situation: Systemics has operated the DigiGold Issuance Server at it's own expense for the past year. We can no longer afford to do so as this negatively impacts our paying customers. We have therefore decided to take the DigiGold Issuance Server offline. That will happen today (June 19th). For DigiGold users this means that it will no longer possible to make payments in any of the four DigiGold metals. We regret any inconvenience this may cause.

[e-gold-list] Re: Defense Fund - Update
It is not a fight against e-gold. It is a defense against the fact of being sued. Donating to a fund that will be used against somebody/some corporation that you have a grudge against doesn't have anything to do with it? If this is just a defense fund for defendants of lawsuits, why single out Charles Evans (and his daughter) as the sole recipient of the donated funds? Secondly, for those that do not know who Charles Evans is, here is some information which was posted a few days ago on this Discussion Board: ~~ Gold Silver Reserve, a multi-million dollar company are Suing a former employee whom they sacked without notice last year. The following document link was posted on this discussion list on Jun 27. http://www.systemics.com/legal/affidavit_BD2.txt It is no longer a viewable document. It is still there, but the permissions have been changed. In the above document, it was stated that Charles Evans was not the model employee and his termination was not without cause. It stated that he did not do any work on the last project assigned to him; he mainly spent his time bad-mouthing Doug's abilites and decisions. Something which seems to be popular on this list. There is a reason why a few people are asking for actual facts about this lawsuit. It is possible, anything is possible, that Charles Evans actually deserves this lawsuit. It is possible that all of GSR's allegations are true and factual to the letter. However, the converse is also true. Without facts, we cannot discern one possibility from the other. Without facts, we are simply choosing sides based on our personal feelings and/or grudges.

There are those of us on the e-gold list who don't even know who Charles Evans is. No one has yet to explain why Evans deserves funding in his fight against e-gold. If there's more to the story, I'd like to hear it. Until then, any pleas on Evans' behalf are meaningless, in my opinion...

Chris Firstly, my understanding is that he is being sued as an individual by a multi-million dollar company and therefore to defend himself will require funding comparable to a lone individual defending himself against a large corporation. It is not a fight against e-gold. It is a defense against the fact of being sued. Secondly, for those that do not know who Charles Evans is, here is some information which was posted a few days ago on this Discussion Board: ~~ Gold Silver Reserve, a multi-million dollar company are Suing a former employee whom they sacked without notice last year. The former employee, Charles Evans, who was a successful Director in the e-gold group prior to being booted out, was handed a civil complaint while attending a conference in Scotland a while ago. He was personally accused of Misappropriation of Trade Secrets, Tortious Interference with Prospective Economic Advantage, Unfair Business Practices, and Breach of the Duty of Loyalty. Mr Evans has categorically disputed these alleged claims and is now struggling to find the 10,000 dollars required to defend himself and his family against this heavy handed attack as a reward for the loyalty he displayed whilst working for e-gold. Perhaps someone should start up a Defence fund for Victims of e- gold, with the Evans Family the first beneficiaries. They are gonna need it!
