This is a notice that effects all users of neovoid.org services; this includes all neovoid.org e-mail addresses, various sites hosted at neovoid.org, and the following message boards: Jester Records, Cadaver, Amber Asylum and Gehenna. I realise that many visitors of these sites and users of these services frequent this place, which is why I think it would be in order to put up a notice here. The server is currently offline; I have received an IP address but I need to be certain that it is permanent and that I am the sole owner of it before I can redirect DNS and thus establish a new connection. I should receive clarity on the subject tomorrow tuesday, and if all is well, DNS should be redirected soon thereafter. More info to follow.
