Yeow, users table is corrupted, we're gonna lose some people...

[Viper GTS]

Ouch!

Well, we think you guys have a right to know what is happening. The corruption lies in the users table, we are going to lose some users. We will not know how many until we do a test run, which should be very soon. The test run will be done in our dev environment. This issue could not be helped, it was just a result of a failing database server. - Zuni

Wanna start a pot on who gets nuked?



[EDIT]And yes, this is a blatant attempt to create public panic, kinda like yelling "GUN!" at GW's inauguration.[/EDIT]

Just printed out my users profile as proof "Just in Case"

 

[Czar]

So are they going to choose users to be removed or are there already some fuct up users, in the database I mean, not realy fuct.

Don't worry, thebestMax...

I just finished Merrick, so I know how to resurrect you!

 

[loup garou]

LOL, thebestMAX, I just did the same thing.

Czar...

No, they're not picking who goes & who doesn't. I think it depends on who's unlucky enough to have a corrupted entry in the user table.

But...

If the entry is corrupt, wouldn't those people's accounts already be hosed? So maybe people that can still function just fine will be OK?

Damn that's harsh! I wonder if this could be avoided by delting a bunch of current members? I.e. those who haven't posted for ages or something...?

[snow patrol]

[Yeeny]

I know this is just a big scheme to get rid of me. But I ain't going without a fight, dern it!

Actually, that would be cool, then I could start over and call you all nefs, just for the heck of it.

 

[Stark]

I just hope the elites and diamonds get knocked back down to junior members.

 

[Czar]

Going to print out my profile the minute I get to work.

 

[IBhacknU]

as I mentioned to Zuni earlier... just let me down easy

 

[tinneric]

I can think of a few I wish they would lose

 

[zippy]

GF, they still know your IP and will know who you are if you had to start over. Heh

Am I still okay? EDIT: Yes I am!

And I just reached 4000 posts ... when will we know who are going out?

 

[snow patrol]

This is quite scary. I've been a member for almost exactly a year now - I'd be gutted if I was deleted because of a server glitch!

 

[Yeeny]

Zippy: Darn it, now you have gone and ruined my dream...

 

[Soybomb]

COOL!! We'll have wounded corruption children now

Can the fallen who come back get honorary titles? hehe
