I'm going to link the definition of "slander" because it seems you have no idea what it means. Here you go -> http://dictionary.reference.com/browse/slander

I understand you are pro-MySQL, but if you ever happen to crash-land on earth sometime, you'd realize it's an overkill for SA-MP. No one's ever doubted the power of MySQL, but my argument isn't based on what it does, it's how YOU people use it!

This community is purely made up of misconceptions and it seems that the newer members are influenced by the older ones and the rubbish that they post! <-- This is why MySQL is so widely used around here.

But who am I with my 155 posts and 20 rep? It'd be best if you hear it from someone with more experience:
