Um, MySQL is the database backend for lots of different types of forums. Using the MySQL admin tools allows you to directly dump and edit the database, as well as backup and restore to a remote location, often far more effectively than you could with whatever tools are built into the forums...

The biggest complication I think for Mod's is maintaining a proper attitude across their boards and other boards. On the forums I run as part of my work, I'm the full uber-admin with rights to arbitrarily slap down full serverhost-level IP netblock bans, and report them to my boss later if I...

Re: What games are you currently playing?/ The Games Thread I'm one of the lead developers for Virtual Battlespace Systems, the military training port of Operation Flashpoint. I do enjoy some RTS's, but more along the mammoth long-slogging scale of Total Annihiliation. Starcraft/W2/W3 are all...

Re: 25 or 50 Things About Yourself: Discussion Thread Sorry, I forgot about this thread. (GK) @ shinraiden: My perverse hobby while there was studying train schedules. I was allways going off to the boonies or other silly places gaijin's don't go alone, and winging out of the train...

Re: Gaara Question I was posting more of a retorical question going back to the fundamentals of jutsu. Does the user manipulate the elements, or can they only 'touch' chakara with elements collided or suspended in chakara? At any rate, as long as Gaara still has chakara potential there is...

Re: Gaara Question Q : Does Gaara control the sand, or does he flood some sand with chakara and manipulate the chakara?

Jutsu Discussion Thread Ok, this was going to be originally a reply-musing to the locked Gaara jutsu thread, but it's more encompassing than that. Let's start with the some theory via cross-over analogy, for that I cite 1337 Master Yoda. When Luke tried to brute force the Force to extract his...

Re: 290 Discussions (Translations out) Sakura and Naruto can't hear anything... IT'S A TRAP! Kabuto said the mind-control wore off, and there's no way Yamato could have or would have faked it. So Kabuto's saying "j00 pwn3d f00". Orochimaru's got the whole mess set up to backstab Sasori to...

Re: 284 Predictions :spaz :spaz :spaz So, IP ban's for anyone posting unprocessed babelphished distranscombobulations? I've been soooo busy lately, no time at all for predictions. :'(
