You don't need to worry if you can't access it right now. Maybe they only have a maintenance or downtime but sooner or later they will be back at business.
Yes. i'm agree with your opinion, this case happened in temporary time.
If the maintenance clear we can use e-gold properly without problem.
At now although still have bit problem, but the progress still good or overall condition
Don't worry about e-gold. I think even it has some problems it won't down so quicky. So many person have money in e-gold. Even it would down, it would let us withdraw our money~
