Lockerz 0 PTZ Problem

There have been a ton of concern the last 24 hours about the database over at Lockerz. Not only were people panicking thinking that they lost all the PTZ that they had earned, but they were also spreading the panic via tweets and at forums throughout the internet.

Yesterday at around 2pm EST a database error made all PTZ total in Lockerz reset to 0. Soon after, the Guys at LockerzForum released a statement letting everyone know it's a widespread outage and that accounts are not being punished, in a post the Lockerz 0 PTZ Problem. Anyway, soon after this post was made by the Forum admin "Lockerz1" Kathy from the company came out and made a quick statement saying the following:

Your PTZ and friends are not lost! It's a display bug, and we are working on it. Everything is safe in the system:-)

That quickly stopped the panic. It just goes to show though how a simple database glitch can cause a mass panic throughout the internet from Facebook to Twitter to emails, to forums. Luckily the rumors of mass account penalties were quickly squashed.
