Posted By: The Tim <tim@thetimtimes.com> In Response To: why is dxgold in business? (gold bug)
Friday, 25 February 2005, at 6:59 a.m.
Was there ever a more appropriate forum name than DXforDummies? Talk about self defining! Anyway....
> Some people are perhaps ill informed on the business model of dxgold...
Could 'some people' be you?
> the company wants to be in business to transact exchanges between
> different e-currency companies. These companies are numerous and exchanges
> between these outfits are not out of question.
Nothing better than a DERIVATIVE market for 'vapors'.
> YES, there is a need and there is DXGold to fill that need.
Because what kind of shape would the world be in if there weren't yet another created level of smoke and mirrors in the imagined world of e-currency? Shudder to think of the implications.
> In addition DXGold is a competing entity to eGold and the other e-currency outfits.
Lest you think we're happy to live off the imagined need of derivative e-currency trading, be glad that we're also in the business of fleecing you directly? We're planning on becoming a full service vapor vendor.

Always with the new servers! Wow! I'm impressed because you know a server isn't something that just anybody could get. By golly, you might have to spend four or five hundred bucks building a Linux server, and that's clearly out of the budget of a dedicated scammer. How perceptive of you!! Beta testers? Did you take the time to see if they paid for the Alpha testers, or did they toss them to the curb like they're gonna do with most of their customer base once they're done with the Betas? You can be sure of one thing. They WILL TAKE OFF. Just as soon as they get what they want out of you. They're gonna relocate to the moon and live in their new infrastructure supported, in large part, by the new technology they've created.
Enjoy.

| PLEASE READ THIS LEGAL NOTICE CAREFULLY BEFORE YOU FILE A LAWSUIT OR EVEN WASTE TIME THINKING ABOUT IT. It has been done before, but never successfully. In fact, the last dodobird who tried it ended up being ordered to pay more than $77,000 in attorney fees ($65,000+ to my attorneys and $12,000+ to my co-defendant's legal advisor).
If your attorney is worth his salt, he's going to tell you that the expense of filing a lawsuit you can't win is a whole lot worse than any "damages" resulting from messages posted on this insignificant little chunk of cyberspace. NEWS FLASH: I didn't just climb down off that ol' turnip truck yesterday. I'm well aware that expressing a negative opinion, relating one's personal experience, and restating provable facts are all legal in this country and do not constitute libel, slander, or defamation -- so you don't want to play games with me, and you sure don't want to start something you aren't prepared to finish. I don't take threats lightly, and I don't accept bribes (or did you call it a "mutually-beneficial arrangement"?). I'll turn you in faster than you can yell, "ARREST ME, I'M SCUM!!" Do yourself a favor and turn your legal team loose in greener pastures. Although we may, from time to time, monitor or review discussions, postings and the like on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, we are under no obligation to do so.

You are likewise prohibited from posting any false claims against any company or individual. We will fully cooperate with any law enforcement authorities or court order requesting or directing us to disclose the identity of anyone posting any such information or materials. By posting messages and/or content on the Friends In Business (Scams 101) Message Board, you give permission for Lesley Fountain/Friends In Business/Shoestring Success Publications to display, distribute and use the posting and content for publication, advertising, promotion, excerption or example.

In closing, I would like to remind you once again that it is still legal, in this great country of ours, to express a PERSONAL OPINION, as long as it is presented as opinion and not as fact. And finally, all you scammers out there will do well to remember that TRUTH IS AN ABSOLUTE DEFENSE against charges of libel, defamation, and slander... so if you're operating just a hop, skip, and jump ahead of the law, you might want to think twice before doing anything stupid... (AND SHAME ON YOU!!). |
