    Here is a wild and crazy idea....

    Have you considered instead of using local database files.. What about having an option to use a MySql Database?

    I know it's probably a ton of work to get done... I'm exploring that option
    for a my crappy BBS I'm writing...

    Just a dumb idea...

    I have considered it many times, but ultimately I don't think there is a lot to gain by doing so and it adds another dependency into Mystic.

    If I were starting from scratch I would highly consider SQL but I don't think there is a big reason to do it now.

    Totally understand. I know you've done a TON of work on Mystic over the
    years and I think it's the Best BBS Software out there, and I've ran a lot of them...

    Keep doing what you do... You Rock...

    Thanks for the reply... It's always appreciated.
