CPU usage exceeded

[eternalsolitude]

I posted this code to test out a page.

<?php for($i=0;i<10;$i++){echo $i."<br>";} ?>

I forgot the "$" in the "i<10" so it echoed infinitely, and now my account has two strikes for excessive cpu usage.. Is there anyway to protect myself from getting permanently suspended because a simple typo?

High resource usage suspensions are not permanent, so you don't have to worry there. You can unsuspend yourself for the first two warnings, and then one us here has to help you unsuspend for the third warning. As long as you work to solve the problem, you'll be just fine.

Okay, thank you for the response, I was worried I would get permanently banned on the third.
I'm just going to use my computer to develop so it doesn't happen again.

Another quick note to make is the first warning will expire automatically after a bit (it's either 12 or 24hr I forget which), so if you would happen to have problems with it again in a year (for instance), it won't still be holding that 1 warning against you

Great to know, thanks!
