reCreate the user
then run this sql query:


UPDATE post SET userid=x WHERE username='xyz' AND userid=0


replace the x and xyz with the userid of the recreated user and the xyz with the exact old username he had.

The old username was mysticalsaiyan and the ID was 77 and the new username is MysticalSaiyanX with the ID 327, how can I give him all of his old posts and threads and everything back??

no anime, the userid 77 isnt there anymore, so it wouldn be very usefulle to change the posts to that id :)

the corect sql:
UPDATE post SET userid=327 WHERE username='mysticalsaiyan' AND userid=0

then don't forget to update postcounter from your admincp :)
