My Sql Is Typicly A Lot Faster And Easier To Modify For Script Updates Along With Website Integration. Also lets say you move to a differnt server you download a 1mb file instead of 1,000s of .ini files.

If you want to script less, then go for MySQL. Because with mysql you can just call whatever you want with one query.

If you are going to use ini for it, you will need to make a loop, extra scripts and go on...

MySQL all the way. I never used to use it, I used to use DUDB etc but MySQL is FTW.

I never made account saving in .ini files. But i find mysql great to organize on websites and global ig stats.

Thats kinda true. However, Im using the original file manipulator and I find it great and easy to use. I need no custom .ini includes.

MySQL is the best nowadays because it is more dynamic and FASTER except it needs alot of tinkering to get it to work
