Folks, there are many places to discuss Fascism...One of them is *NOT* the e-gold list!! The topics here are mainly money (with a minor dose of computer-security stuff) but if we start discussing politics, we're going to lose members I wish to retain but attract members I'd prefer not to see.

(Not to pick on you, Michael, but) if we can keep the posts about the various exchanges to a minimum, I'm pretty sure the list's members will appreciate it. Many of them are aware of the various fine services provided, and wish to discuss other stuff. Also, while there are many subscribers, I fear

Folks, can we _PLEASE_ keep the discussion to money? There exist THOUSANDS of places on the 'net to express yourself in all manner of ways about guns, politics, abortion, what invisible entity/ies to worship, etc. This list isn't one of them. Please don't make me moderate it more, please moderate Y

Folks, I know the emotions are high these days, but if we could leave off the profanities I won't be forced to moderate. Thanks in advance for expressing yourselves strongly-but-civilly.

Folks, let's try to keep the conversations focused on money & resist the urge to discuss (politics, history, personalities...). You're not only off-topic, you're highly UNlikely to convince eachother (or anyone else) in a limited forum like this, and a multitude of other fora exist for the purpose

Not picking on anyone in particular now, but let's try to keep any discussions to gold and electronic money issues, please. I would DEEPLY enjoy seeing this discussion (instead of what's usually seen) at the old Free-Market.net* board, for example. http://www.free-market.net/forums/e-gold0009/ FD

Must I moderate EVERYONE? Look people, cypherpunks is a better list for a lot of this, and if you must discuss the tragedy try to keep it to using what we have to help the victims. If you wish to discuss the politics of this event or have flamewars, find another list. It's healthy to be on more th

Folks, it's time to stop the political messages, please. I may personally disagree or agree with what you say, but this isn't the forum to say it. If you want a forum where you can say anything, look around for how to sign up for the full, unfiltered cypherpunks list, and go do it. Have fun! JMR

I will re-set the Lyris quote feature to 15 lines, since it's leading to increased-rudeness to those on the digest version of the list, rather than what I'd hoped-for -- better, more-focused responses where folks take the time to excise irrelevant quoted stuff. JMR --- You are currently subscrib
