Someone must hate me and Exile WoW (Rey or Bapes I'm thinking) deleted my whole ascent and logon DB - But I back up every 30 minutes so it's ok... I just need help on how to prevent this on happening again... also said IP banned ...

Better protection mate. Sanitize site input, change passwords, etc.
Make it so your SQL will only accept connections from 127.0.0.1 meaning you have to be at the computer running the server to edit anything or even conenct to a server. If it was a GM then choose GM's wiseley
Well my Devs have limited Remote DB access and I trust all of them - they aren't allowed to delete anything but how can you make all accounts "az" all 20,000 of them...?
if you want to make all accounts 'az' you can just use a query
Probably Executed a Quiery to do it

UPDATE accounts SET gm='az';
Fixt :P
Look, if you have a security hole, it's not that hard to do stuff to your server.
Make daily backups
update characters set name="Pwned";
Owns Spidey's query =O.
Change your mysql information and check to see if your webpages are safe, Its easy to do SQL injections.
