Good morning everyone,

Later on this morning, we will be going offline for some minor maintenance. During this downtime, our web hosts will be moving us to a new server. For a short while, we will actually exists on two servers at the same time, and to ensure we do not loose any posts, the site will be shut down during that time. Hopefully once this has been completed, you will see some increased performance.

As always, you can follow our progress on our Facebook page at http://www.facebook.com/pages/BudoSeek-Martial-Arts-Community/83125572729

We're back online and hopefully you are currently seeing us on the new server.

This change involves changing our IP address, so it is possible that you are looking at the old site. If you happen to post something on the old site, your post(s) will disappear once your ISP has updated their DNS settings. Normally this is accomplished in a couple of hours, but can take up to 24 in some instances.

To determine if you are looking at the new site, please do the following:

Windows:
1. Go to dos prompt by clicking START > RUN, type in cmd and hit ENTER.
2. Type in "ping budoseek.net" and hit ENTER.

Mac OS X:
1. Go to Applications -> Utilities folder.
2. Open Network Utility
3. Click Ping tab and enter "budoseek.net".

The new IP 75.127.99.22 should be returned once the DNS change has propagated to you.
