Thanks for the reply!

You only mentioned that in some cases mysqli is better, but that currently it's all personal preference...

I want to know if I should start learning mysqli because it's "newgen"

[betterphp]

@DehMisterBrown All I can really say is that it's up to you :s It can't hurt to know how to use it ;)

[DehMisterBrown]

is mysqli new generation ? Or is mysql still fine ?

[betterphp]

@DehMisterBrown I expressed my opinion on that in the video. ;)

Man can u do more bukkit Dev vids

[betterphp]

@TheAmazingCowpaD Yes, I have to re-do a load of them because of a major change with how events work. Be patient ;)

No better time to make the switch than the present. More mysqli vids would defo ease the bump. Thanks man.

I didn't bother with MySQLi after looking at it for a bit. I've used regular MySQL so much that I have code written up for almost all situations that I can just copy and paste. Nothing is more efficient than a job that's finished before it's started.
