Hi,

I've a few questions related to MySQL.

1. What's the BEST way to store player records (IP, admins, bans, etc)
2. And, what's the best way to store configuration data in the database? Such as:

PHP Code:

CREATE TABLE IF NOT EXISTS "#TABLE_SERVER_CFG" (\
    `weather` INTEGER, \
    `time` INTEGER, \
    `double_score` INTEGER, \
    `motd` VARCHAR(100), \
    `amotd` VARCHAR(100)\
) 


I don't think it's a good use of MySQL to store such information and I should use INI or CFG files. But, I wish to keep everything all-together in one database. And the data is supposed to be updated on server shutdown or during the runtime.
