 * It tells me my username and password are correcyt, but it can’t locate my database,
   I made another one, (original: kyonki_, new one: kyonki_wordpress), and it still
   can’t select it. I added my username to it, and it still refuses to work, any
   ideas?

 * Doesn’t work. I used my username, and everything is correct, it’s just that it
   can’t select a database.

 * Oh sorry..seen the user_ there, usually that tends to be a problem. Hmm..how 
   about the host for it? localhost, or something.com maybe..?
 * If all else fails.. maybe submit a request over here.. and I’ll help ya with 
   it..

 * Ok, I’ll do that. It’s probably easier for me, I am not familiar with MySQL.
