"We are pleased that we hear so many complimentary stories of the services we provide and of team members who deliver on the sales promise."

Seems a bit premature, but hopefully they know something we don’t.

Guess we will find out soon for ourselves.

funny, I was just looking at that myself...

From the same link, and I am unsure why the OP didnt include in his original thread, here is Aventurine statement on GNi.

Matching the Quality of the Game with the Right Infrastructure
“True to our game development philosophy, we demand uncompromising quality for Darkfall’s hosting needs. We want it all: world class service, hardware, and bandwidth, while offering competitive pricing and terms flexibility. We also demand game industry knowledge and experience, and, more importantly a shared vision for our game and a long-term relationship. We’ve found all of this in GNi. We’re very impressed with their professionalism and their commitment to the success of Darkfall and Aventurine."
 

Because that’s just a repeat of what Aventurine said about GNi from the recent press release.

Not what GNi has to say about Aventurine.

What I find interesting is that GNi is now publicly announcing they consider Aventurine to be a “success story” on their website.

But they have not successfully done anything yet as a company so I was thinking perhaps they know something we don’t.

Or maybe its just marketing and promotional stuff that means nothing, either way, 3 months left untill we find out if Aventurine will indeed be the success story that GNi is already proclaiming they are.

I remember some people were suspicious cause Aventurine weren't on GNi's client list, nice to have that cleared up.

I found something else to be suspiciously suspicious about

Wow, that's really that first thing about darkfall that got me really worried...

Gah, this is getting absurd, people seem to spend inordinate amounts of time digging through any and all available information regarding this game so that they can apply some troll spin doctory to it.

Enron lol, EARTH TO TROLLS are you receiving us? It is now safe to leave your basements.

They are worse than conspiracy theorists.  

It takes 5 minutes to find this, don’t assume it takes other people “inordinate amounts of time digging” to find information just because it might for you.

Don’t worry though he was in the USMC for 6 years so I’m sure he’s a good egg.

But considering he’s the Founder/Chairman/CTO of GNI and is

”responsible for the generation of new sales as well as product development.”

I would personally take anything he or his company says about Darkfall and Aventurine with a grain of salt.

As I would of anything else someone was trying to sell.

Well that's obvious to anyone with a brain larger than a peanut.

You are over over-analyzing to ridiculous proportions.
