Originally, when Warcraft Update encounters a new World of Warcraft server it is supposed to add it to the database and email me. The feature has never been tested so I was not sure whether or not it actually worked. The design was simple so I figured things would be alright.
Not so much.
Warcraft Update found 4 new servers, and emailed me. A lot. Apparently I forgot to add the closing bracket on the SQL statement causing it to fail. This means I would get emailed over and over again because it keeps thinking these new servers are new.
I’ve been sick the past week so I couldn’t be bothered to fix anything that wasn’t too urgent, so I let this bug just run. That image there is the results. Over 5,000 emails flooded my inbox over the week. Dirty.
Bug is all patched up and I’m no longer getting flooded. Business is back to normal.

Welcome to my freshly updated portfolio site. I’m Justin Mazur and I’m at your service.
Originally this was my portfolio website for my classes at Humber College, but seeing as I have graduated to bigger and better things I decided to re-purpose this into a personal blog and post some of the awesome things I do on my free time.
But what are these things that I speak of?
I am a PHP developer, so naturally they will involve some sort of web server.
I’m also pretty good at XHTML and CSS, so expect some of that.
Can’t forget Photoshop and Flash, I got my hands into them as well.
I plan to occasionally put of insightful and nonsensical posts up here once in a while, but nothing too regularly. Just occasional posts about things in the web community.
Crack open a GURU and sit back. It’s going to be a bumpy ride (depending on how sturdy your chair is).
