I would like to add members from my old database to a new one, but few of them so thats why Im thinking doing manually one by one instead of importing all of them and having to delete alot more ...
anybody knows about this?

I'm not sure if it's supported by vBulletin's team (I don't think it is) but you could fill the values in manually to the "user" table in the database..

I would not try to do this manually, big chance that you mess up things.
Easiest would be to put those usernames & email address in a comma-seperated file and use ImpEx to import it as a textfile.

I have tried this using exporting the user tables (from php myadmin) and again imported them in the new db...got many errors..
impex ftw!

Only error(s) I got were usernames not showing up properly. Which can be easily fixed using the Maintenance tools.
But yeah, Marco said Impex so I'd recommend following his advice.
