I want to wipe the database and start my forum again from scratch - there's a lot of dead wood in the forum as it stands (imported from vB4), however I would like to save a select number of members so that they don't have to re-register when I get the new house in order.
What I'd like to do is to systematically delete all the old members who never show face and leave the selected few. Is it possible to do this then back up whatever (which ones?) tables in the database, reinstall the forum and then import the table data containing the members I want to save? I just need their usernames, passwords and any other data that is associated with their accounts so they can login and start posting again. If this is possible what tables should be saved?
With thanks.
