Heh heh. Our most embarassing example like that was from last spring when Achaea had a massive system meltdown. We spent 6 days running 'Anarchaea' (just a copy of Achaea using the db from a few weeks before) while we got things back in order. One of our users decided to get us on /. to get us "some publicity." Unfortunately, telling the world that we had a massive meltdown is NOT the kind of publicity we wanted! The poor guy was horrified after I explained why what he had done was, perhaps, not the best way to help us.
