Nearly 1 year ago we have overtaken a forum and when the previous owner assigned he deleted himself from the forum. Now we want to change the x id of the new admin's to ID=1.

Is it possible?

It is possible but it really is not something you want to do. It is a hell of a job, and very likely you will forget something.

My advice is to leave it as it is, it is just an internal reference number.

You could end up with broken profiles, no PM'ing, unassigned posts, the list goes on.

Plus it's a ball ache to do it. Trust me I've had to do it before and that was on a smallish site.

I suppose it's gonna be a headache for me also if I try to do so.

I give up not gonna do it.

Thanx
