You should put a big red disclaimer on this hack, someone I know is planning to do this:

There's a new hack that allows Database mergers from multiple vBulletins, and I JUST happen to have an old back up of the old site's database from when there was about 30,000 to 40,000 posts...So what do you think?? I think we oldies deserve this, we EARNED those posts there, and bumping up the site to almost 150,000 posts would be a nice bonus...

PLUS, all of those old members who don't even know about this NEW Game Quest that joined the OLD Game Quest can be updated on the new situation...

Bonus, eh?? I just hope the hack goes smoothly...

EDIT: Plus, your old accounts can be merged with your NEW accounts, meaning I legitimately get back about 5,500 lost posts...

Storm can not sue for that, it\'s all of YOUR intellectual property...Imagine the size of post about the post above you after the merger?!?! Some stuff will have to be merged manually, but that\'s why we got staff

He was my co-admin way back, he recently got upset with me and left the forum to start his own, now he's going to merge my old database with his current one...

I'm not 100% sure how this hack works, but if it can do this, you can count on trouble...
