This is a welcome message. I think they did a good job of explaining what happened over the last few months. I can really respect a person, or company who openly admits to dropping the ball. The next thing they need to do to restore MY confidence is to put some action behind the words.

I want to see better services, especially the DXTradebiz and DXPublisher...oh and MeWantEm too LOL

Really, I want to see improvement in ALL areas of DXSynergy.

It is great to read that new article. Agreed it's long overdue that DXS step up and confirm they dropped the ball but even better they seem to understand it is up to them to repair the damages and (hopefully) will be working to do just that.

I'm most interested to look around DXS etc. and see what new and interesting things I can see. The learning curve starts all over.

Don't know that there is much to get back to work on just yet. I'm sure there are plenty of people who are very interested in seeing how this all plays out, but I doubt there are many people who are interested enough at this point to bring new money in. Of course, there really is nothing to bring money into at the moment unless one wants to process OutXchanges. Without new money, how does this or any business / economy survive?

Give it a couple of months where GDT has had an opportunity to gain trust of the membership once again (meeting self imposed deadlines / implementation of useful services / brining their own money to the table to fund OutXs) and then MAYBE people will be convinced to get back to work and bring new money into the system.

I sure hope that by Christmas time the DXS System is up and running at full speed and that the past two + months are nothing but a distant memory.

I read it that way too... and am VERY pleased to see that. It's been their 'secrecy' and seeming lack of concern that has had folks disturbed. So, while this doesn't 'fix' it all, I see it as a very good step in the right direction... so 'thanks DXS'.

Again I agree. In the past it seems that a few folks have read some of my posts as being 'negative'. They have never been intended that way. I have and continue to be positive about DXS. But, I also have felt that they do have certain ethical responsibilities to us that they have fallen short on. Article #178 seems to indicate that they are now at least willing to take some of the responsibility for this... and I find that encouraging.
Now this I totally disagree with... since 'bringing in new money' is alway's needed in any economy... so just 'waiting it out' will not help speed things up at all...

BUT... remember that does NOT just mean bringing in more 'investment' money (which I agree most would be hesitant to do at this point). But that's not the point! Remember, if the only funds coming in were from that, then this would be a ponzi... which none of us want... (we want to see it become a truly functioning economy, as was outlined in the news article ).

So that means that funds DO need to be brought into the system. But that needs to happen via the promotion and sale of real products and services... (not just INX's of 'investment capital').

With that goal in mind, then I'd say that we do indeed need to 'get to work' in the sense of helping the economy grow by providing products and services of our own... We should thus start to use the DXS services as much as we can to promote our own products and services... and we should then use funds gained to purchase other 'consumable' products and services (that we can use ourselves) from within the system.

We need to see this as a B2C economic system... and we need to do our best to fill both of those roles ("B's" & "C's") ourselves as individuals as best as we can. Doing so will help the economy and thus all of us involved.

Ok, while I 'disagreed' with the first part of 2007dinars post... I continue to agree that DXS does have some responsibilies in this area... The fact is that theoretically there should always be 'enough in the system' to allow for all OX's to be processed... (in a sense)... as the original INX's should have been 'backed' by something.

BUT... even a bank can't just 'give you the cash' if everybody went to make withdrawals at once... So, while not intending to be 'making excuses' for DXS here, I am pointing out that there are also some realistic economic quirks that can and do come into play in the "can't get my OX" regard.

Again, the point is that in general (for most any economy)... most "funds coming in" need to come from actual B2C transactions... not 'investment capital'.

Hi,

First of all, I'm glad we got this news from DXS 'personally'!
Second, many thanks to Shiisa and others who took the responsibility to keep us informed about what was going on "behind the curtains".

Third, after reading the news article I thought everything would be in place, up and running, but as I entered DXSynergy I found that the we can not do a lot of the things we were used to do; like outx'ing, buying/selling Digots, trading at TradeExchange etc.
Then I realised that DXS was hardly saying anything about these parts of DXS; those part that were User-to-User oriented. It worries me that at the moment DXS seems not that interested in this part of their business services, as my DXMerchantship has its challenges in that part.
Nothing is said about DXGC's and the connection of DXMerchantship to it, although the renewing date is coming closer and closer.

Any idea's on this?
Has someone asked support already about this?
