no one ever said it was right to mulit did they?

he clearly said that he did it because he assumed the countries would get fixed

Mullets never go out of fashion, they just go into temporary hibernation.

The amount of work required for you to restart and build your country back up is far less than the work we had to do to clean up the mess you made.

Slagpit, take some responsibility here dude, you claim the mess was made by users - yet for some reason it's OK to be inserting new code into a live server.

What production environment have you worked in where that is standard practice?

Should I be surprised that the developers only did netgaining-specific testing? :p

We push new code into live enviroments all the time. In my case we are up and running 24/7 so we try to do it during slow periods. However we do conduct 3 levels of testing before the push (developer, QC, and UAT). It just sounds like it wasn't tested fully before the push in this case. On one hand people should have enough smarts to quit running turns once they realize it was glitched. Some of the responsibilty here is obviously in the hands of the developers who pushed it, not all but some for sure.

dagga: despite your squealing to the contrary, qzjul did everything properly and reasonably tested the code. It's impossible to write bug free code.
