   I got this.
   
   

   
   
   A Database Error Occurred
   
   Error Number: 1054
   
   Unknown column 'Dossta' in 'where clause'
   
   UPDATE lockmor_user SET XP = XP + 2 WHERE author_id = Dossta
   
   

   
   
   When I tried to add a comment to http://strolen.com/viewing/Telportia
   
   I refreshed the page, and the comment went through fine. But I found the error to be very strange.

   That is super weird. If at least the name was the author, it would make more sense to me but in this case it doesn't make any. First of all, it should be a number, let alone the wrong person all together.
   
   Will have to take a look but chances are I won't see anything. I am hoping the planet's magnetism and a solar flare ripped a time space continuum forcing an cross flow of flux capacitors over 3.21 gigawatts and the beams were crossed making this a one of a kind error.

   Data would find the error, and so would Spock!
   
   :P

   This has been here for years and I've only now found it?!?!  Holy crap.  I don't think I've ever been my own column in a database before . . .
