 Greetings to Our Loyal GNI Customers & Clients To all of you who have offered their best wishes to us in our efforts to combat the efforts of those who seek to destroy our project, we most graciously thank you. You make for us, the added frustration and expenditure of resources much easier for us to swallow while reminding us of those member's lives we have changed for the better; homes we have helped to save, medical treatment some clients would otherwise not have been able to obtain and yes, vacations some would have, without GNI, NOT been able to take. We have been in contact with the owners at the GNI sponsored forum, ASA Monitor. For the last four days, they have been under a serious/significant DDoS attack by unknown fraudsters. Whether or not this is a collateral effect resulting from our (GNI's) determination to fight the fraudsters, we cannot say for sure, however the relationship betweenn ASA and GNI has been, of late, very good. Some have suggested we switch to a new forum. While this may seem like a simple, correct response; we feel otherwise. If we were to switch forums, which is precisely what the perpetrators of the DDoS attack are hoping for us to do, we would be giving the perpetrators an undeserved victory and encourage future DDoS attacks on other programs and forums which support them. To that end, WE REFUSE to participate helping anyone perpetrate illegal activity. Additionally, we support ASA's efforts in fighting this attack and will remain patient until their success is evident when our members can resume active participation at the ASA Forum. We hope our members will try to understand our decision(s). In an effort to streamline our operations, we have decided to modify our payment (withdrawal) schedule. Previously, we processed member's payment requests twice daily, Monday - Friday beginning at 8:00 am (GMT) and then a subsequent payout cycle which would be initiated around 17:00 (5:00 pm - GMT). We will be eliminating, effective immediately, the second daily payout cycle. Specifically, GNI will be completing member payment request beginning at 8:00 AM GMT, 4:00 AM EDT (Eastern Daylight Time), Monday - Friday. Saturday payments, as has been the previous, on-going policy of GNI, will be made on a case-by-case basis. This is NOT to say GNI evaluates member requests for Saturday payments. The decision to initiate payments on Saturdays is made based on program/project requirements as determined by GNI Administrators. The decision to make this change was predicated on having the least impact on the membership base, additional resources required to maintain the superior level of customer care our clients have rightfully demanded and received and time required by the GNI team to maintain a certain degree of sanity expected by our family members. With a little bit of advanced planning this will have a neglible impact on our members/clients. Once again, we thank you all for your on-going support.
