At times your posts are so dumb reading them makes my IQ drop.


IGE has never had ATMs yet people sell to them all the time. Wow?!?!?! They just come in world and pick them up from you. www.ige.com Read, it won't hurt I promise.



Yeah that one hurt my brain too.

What I don't like about SLExchange is when it comes to buying Lindens is that you can't actually see them until after 30 days has past. In the mean time you can spend them on SLExchange and the items will be credited, but you still can't transfer your well paid lindens to your avatar for a whole month wich doesn't do me good if I wanna buy something not found on SLE.


How convenient, they use the L$ market to try to lock you in to purchasing from the site. Nope, no conflict of interest.

Agreed if this is tha case, it's bad news. But it can hardly be argued as a conflict of interests.

This was something we did when we originally launched our Buy/Sell L$ area because we did not have an effective way to reduce incidents of fraud.

We no longer hold purchased L$ as we have a risk management system in place now.

And no, this is not the market referred to in the other thread. We have offered this service for about 2 months now.

Yes and like I said, Apo is dishonest!

I know, been there, done that.


Apo is successful without you. You are bitter.

Apo does not comment on other people. You keep slandering him since 8 months.

Apo screwed up and apologized. Where is your apology for everything you have done to him?

When will you leave people alone? When will you stop the grieving?

I must say I had no idea that after IGE's unexpected moves, that GOM would close down so soon. But it sure speaks of the increasing turmoil and volatility of the situation. Makes me happy that I supported IGE last night and ignored GOM entirely.

"What's that?" some of you might be saying. "Why support something that has worse deals for L$?"

But it all comes down to this. IGE now has a greater reputation because they appear to be sticking with us. That too could change when LL starts its bling thing. But until then, my vote is of solidarity and confidence and not weakness and cheapness.

Moved to the Land and the Economy Forum for further discussion.


Hey, anyone notice that Jeska moved the thread, and yet did not edit Merwan's posts to remove personal attacks?

(just an observation, not saying that's good or bad)
