What causes your team to be deleted in PBS?

Simple.

PBS hates us.

Either that or it's the server file writing errors or the code has just been updated.

Something about swimming monkeyz.

PBS stores all users in one long file. When that file becomes too long, it would slow down the server even greater than it currently is. Therefore, whenever too many members get in, it shortens the list by deleting some accounts.
That's the way I understand it at least, and I have the PBS code.

I got a much easier way to fix the problem...

Cookies!

No, not those delicious crunchy snacks that are impossible to resist.

Why doesn't the PBS just simply keep a record of your team by storing in your hard drive?

Because that'd mean a rewiting of part of the code. And from what I've heard the state of that code is in, that's asking for trouble.

What happens if you want to use your team on a different computer, though?

Actually, KeroKato's all wrong. I delete the teams as a way of celebrating everytime I level up in Diablo II.

Here's another question...

What causes teams with illegal characters in the name to sit in the battle list for ever and ever and ever? (Or until its reset somehow, anyway.)

TeeJay: You might want to put an note on the main page about what characters are legal, to cut down on this sort of thing.

Cookies are not only unaccepted by many stupid people's browsers, but they are also not safe.
There are ways to alter those cookies. If ya got CGI, use that to hold accounts. Cookies should only be used to store usernames and passwords.
