i've got a question here.

we're running a vb 3.0.3 with too many hacks installed, examples:

team, arcade, petz, bookie, ushop, ucash, profile guestbooks, statistics, shoutbox, vbadvanced, rap-battles, gender, gifts and such.

now i dont mind my members loosing their guestbooks, money, etc. or the arcade being gone and i having to re-install it from scratch. my only concern is, can i even upgrade without messing up the user profiles completely. i mean if i just update, is it going to keep everything else, in their profilefields in tact? are all my forum messages going to still work.

and if it takes out things such as the shoutbox, what happens to the mysql part of the shoutbox, can i just delete the table completely without any problems? and then when i re-install a new shoutbox start it all fresh?

There is no general answer to these questions. You would have to ask this for every hack.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
