30976, pbf info

Is PBF info still being collected post purge, even if the Death Angel (and possibly the PBF posting process) aren't functional yet?


Also- I accidentally posted this on the Contests forum. Feel free to not approve that one.

I want to say as of about 2 weeks ago the graveyard stuff is being collected. The PBF stuff should have been being collected all along (since that's an actual player file we store on the server, not a line in the database). I'll caveat that by saying, there were probably a few that got messed up in the transition, and making sure we understand the new file system.

It's still on my list of crap to get running again.

Never fails to draw a chuckle.

I'm a scotch man myself, though.

What's the difference between "graveyard stuff" and "pbf stuff"?

Also, what do you mean by "messed up in the transition"? Does that apply to characters rolled post-purge?

Thanks for all the hard work, btw.

Graveyard stuff is dumped as a line in the database at the time of deletion/auto-deletion, while the PBF stuff is pulled directly from the copy of the pfile we save.

When I was trying to rebuild the tables used for the graveyard pump from DB->forums I'm sure there were some that got missed/broken. These all apply to 5th age stuff. There is nothing pre-purge that exists in the DB or player files.
