For those of you that thought the Vast Empire sites were down because I forgot to pay the hosting fees. As well as the fact that I didn't have the money in order to cover this month, which could potentially result in the closure of the Vast Empire....
April Fools!!

Interesting trick, though I wonder what would have happened if someone did a DNS lookup.
The hosting company the VE uses is really Hostway? ----------------------- FM/LCRW spacespeed9/Aegis 1-3/Phoenix Wing/mSSD Atrus/DEF/VEN/VE (=A=)

Here is the message from Lucas that we put together a few years back in case some of you hadn't seen it.

As for our real hosting company...no, it isn't Hostway. We didn't want anyone sending some nasty email to the real company. ----------------------- Grand Moff Kadann, Dark Lord
