Boards are completely fucked up. They'll probably do a revert.

When I got that problem with being redirected to the welcome.php page while on my main account, I didn't click the button. Someone who did click the button told me his new User ID and username. I suppose it shouldn't be added to the GFUserDB.

Also, I had proposed a radical theory as to why this happened.

O RLY?

User Name Luster Soldier
User ID 701603
Board User Level 34: Icon
Awarded to users with at least 1000 Karma. No posting restrictions.

When I got redirected to the welcome.php page while the boards were still messed up, I didn't click the button that would have set me back to level 10 and with a new User ID and completely different account data. I know someone who went to level 4 when he clicked the button on the welcome.php page:

User Name omgLImES
User ID 3520702
Board User Level 4: Pending Review
Account activated, but pending review by an administrator before use

YE, don't add that account to the database.

I was asleep when this happened. So people got automatically redirected to welcome.php, where they clicked a button and got set to level 4/10/whatever?

Damn, that's fucked up... I'm glad I got out of there while I did. Did anybody lose their account or get shited somehow?
Are those two links for making accounts with spaces still working? They probably IP banned those too. GameFAQs is cruel that way...

Firstly, CJayC backed out of the server upgrade and rolled the database back to the older one.

Secondly, CJayC has said himself that making accounts with the Space Account page is OK. If he wanted to stop it, he'd fix his code, not IP ban the page/site. Keep in mind it was CNET who IP banned this server's IP address from ALL CNET sites because it was doing mass page requests.
