What makes MySQL better than all other saving systems?
#4

Grouping and sorting. It's very easy to write a query that asks "Give me the top 10 players with the most money". I'd like to see that being done with a file based system. You'd have to open every player's file to check their money or keep a separate file for every possible query. If I'd alter the above question to say: "give me the top 10 players with the most money, that have been online in the past week". What would you do then?
