This change gave another idea.....
Back at the ezboard forum some nicknames were different than the ones the members have at VB.
For example a member there was called "polo242" but now in the VB he has the username : "polo"
After the transfer, the accounts were not imported, as we all know this cannot be done...
So my guess is that these old usernames are not in the "user" table right?
So what are they? Were they transfered just as simple text?
(all these old name have the "guest" status under them, now).
And where exactly are these old usernames stored?
What I wanna do is to try - with a query - to change these names to what they are now (e.g. headhunter1 --> headhunter), although I do know that they will *not* have real profiles or be linked in any way with the new usernames.
any ideas?
