This is my problem.

I am implementing this new registration system into my site so that when a user registers on this form I have, they will get registered to my chat rooms, my message boards (vBulletin), and my email program (HiveMail).

The only way to do this is that I have to erase all of the usernames associated with these things. Specific to vBulletin, I am going to just erase the usernames, but leave the posts... because there are over 1,000,000.

The creators of those posts/threads are then set to "Guest" or whatever and their nicknames are deleted.

Is there anyway so that when a user re-registers a nickname that had previously been used (and then "deleted") they can get back their posts/threads?

Is there some kind of a hack for this?

The only way I think this can be done, is to change the NEW user's ID# to their previous ID manually in the database.

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