Hmmm... I
do have access to the database
and the forum code...
I could add or subtract post at will... I could even be so evil that I put in a conditional statement somewhere that checks for a specific user posting, and if it IS that user: reduce the post count with one instead of increasing it
But that would make me a spawn of satan... and thats a bad thing, right
And after all, jv_map has the same access as me so... *wistles and tries to look cute, walks away with his hand in his pockets*

I'm afraid jv knows a bunch of everything that is a text based way to control computers
He'll script my ass clean off if it ever came down to that

To return to the original topic:
GameSpy has found the reason for our DataBase problems here at .MAP
Apparently some new site connected to the same database did some bad programming. And this affected every site connected to the same database. From what I undesstand: this is now fixed and we should be up forever from now on ( famous last words anyone? ).
