I'm getting the same problem. I've skimmed through the code to try and work out what the problem is and as far as I can tell it's something to do with the delete original PM feature passing bad arguments to the GPC cleaner.

A fix would certainly be appreciated.

EDIT: 3.7.2 here, by the way.

EDIT2: Found the problem. In product-psi_advpmoptions.xml, on line 245:

	$vbulletin->input->clean_array_gpc('p', 'advpmoptions_savecopy', TYPE_UINT);

Should be

	$vbulletin->input->clean_gpc('p', 'advpmoptions_savecopy', TYPE_UINT);

Released version 1.3.2 that fixed the above bugs.
