thread_title:  error (mistake) foundation was in 1999 versus 1950. Corrected! 

message: -IBS (company owned by Henry & Sue Skaggs) ask the Columbus, GA judge to bring the case out of default so the case could be heard with ALL evidence being made public. The Judge the Honorable Maureen Gottfried, accepted the request. The plantiff (IBS) turned over 14 cases of evidence and over 100 hours of recorded phone calls and voice mails to the legal team. The plantiff's also gave over 2000 emails of evidence. Along with this evidence, they turned over a disc with nearly 1 GB of information. 
Early in July the defendants offered a settlement in the millions, but the Skaggs' would not give more information. They did share a letter that Bill Blue (Defendants attorney)sent to the attorneys of IBS to ask for a settlement. The Skaggs' have refused ANY settlement of ANY amount. They told us that NO amount will be settled on. The Skaggs' want ALL evidence to be made public. 
The Skaggs' also shared an illegal overseas bank account that Bill Britt pays NO taxes on. 
The Skaggs' just spent 35 days in the states (they live overseas right now, after death threats from one of the defendants). During that time they have signed agreements in writing with the Department of Justice to cooperate with criminal RICO charges AFTER the Skaggs' are finished with the Civil RICO case. 
For any questions, please feel free to ask on this Wiki, or Amway Wiki, or Wikipedia under the discussion tab. I DO NOT make any money in posting this, but am a concerned friend of the Skaggs' and believe in the Quixtar/Amway business.  —Preceding unsigned comment added by Quickstar7 (talk • contribs) 23:45, 26 September 2008 (UTC)
thread_title:  UPDATE AS OF 26 SEPT 2008 

message: I'm not sure whether the long glossary of terms is really needed in the article. After all, it is supposed to be an expository piece, not a legal contract type one. A few terms that are used in the main body can be easily explained there. So, my suggestion is to remove it altogether. I do not want to do it myself now because I may be missing something, so, if anybody could explain what type of reader except the potential new IBO looking for clarification of some unclear terms in the contract he intends to sign might be interested in all those definitions, I would appreciate it.

replies: text: You're quite right, Fedja, and I've gone ahead and removed that section, which besides being totally unnecessary, was clearly copied from some other document. If terms used in the article are not clear, they can be explained in the body of the text, but there is zero reason to have a glossary making up 90% of the article when most of those terms aren't even used in the article. keɪɑtɪk flʌfi (talk) 13:35, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
replies: text: I think it was orignally transfered from the Quixtar article and would be needed for understandig the "business model" section, which hasn't really been written. Without that section it is pretty useless. Even with that section it would be better to have as footnotes or similar. --Insider201283 (talk) 13:54, 27 May 2009 (UTC)

text: Ooops, just realised I was talking about the Amway article, which has a similar glossary, not this Amway Global article. --Insider201283 (talk) 13:55, 27 May 2009 (UTC)
thread_title: Glossary?

message: Yes, after searching the page, I found it stands for Independent Business Owner. What does that mean in this context exactly?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 99.63.71.173 (talk) 13:19, 15 February 2011 (UTC)
