Forum:Administrator Locked the Wikia Database

Hello, I have run into a problem while managing my Wikia. An user of Patapon Wiki was given the rights of a administrator by someone who I don't know the identity of, and this "administrator" deleted the front page, and locked the DATABASE of the Wikia, so whenever I try to make an edit, this message shows up: the database has been automatically locked while the slave database servers catch up to the master. I need help on reversing his damage, and I have already blocked this user. Send help ASAP. Thank you.

P.S. I am an administrator.

 * I don't think it's specific to your wiki, as the Heroes of Newerth wiki is returning the same errors. I think the wikia developers are doing something with the database right now. Can we get any confirmation on this?

 * Yumipon, the "automatically" in the message should tell you that no person did it, the system did it to its self "while the slave database servers catch up to the master". If you can tell us what wiki you are talking about, we can help with the vandalism. And yes, the lock was global --Uberfuzzy 03:43, August 5, 2010 (UTC)

I fixed the user's rights. In the future, you can contact staff faster by using the Contact Wikia link at the bottom of your page, rather then posting a forum, and leaving 5 different talk page messages --Uberfuzzy 04:05, August 5, 2010 (UTC)
