    Alt tabbed once too many times, clicked drop database, clicked yes. Realized what I’d done and panicked.

    Deleted the user db for the east coast auth server for the game America’s Army: Operations. Thankfully it was the secondary so we just redid replication.

      If you think you fucked up, remember that EVE Online once failed to remove $instdir\boot.ini (the nice-to-have gamefile) and instead deleted c:\boot.ini (the very critical Windows file).
