Important Notice Regarding GUID

[daredevil]

I strongly suggest to everyone, please remove 32 character of GUID from your profile and make it last 8 only. We have also told this before and here I am saying it again, please remove 32 characters of your GUID and keep last 8.

 

All we need is last 8 characters of your GUID for your admin level set up and to check your cheating history!

 

Thank you!

Just curious but what is the reason for this?

All you need to see if they cheated is their GUID. Only the last 8 characters of it so he is trying to make it more simple

@dare Make a small script to check each guid in user db using strlen and if its 32char use substr($guid, -8)

Hope that helps.

 

EDIT:

 

How about something like this..

 

<?php
include('config.php'); //assuming config.php contains SQL connection info

echo "Please wait..";
// note i've just guessed the user table name (ipb_users) and the column names like 'etguid' and 'userid' here.. Change them accordingly

$sql = mysql_query("SELECT * FROM `ipb_users`");
while ($row = mysql_fetch_array($sql)) {

$user = $row['userid'];
$etguid = $row['etguid'];
$cod4guid = $row['cod4guid'];
$bf2guid = $row['bf2guid'];

$etguid = substr($etguid, -8); // grabs the last 8 digits of the guid
$cod4guid = substr($cod4guid, -8);
$bf2guid = substr($bf2guid, -8);

// now update it with all the new sexy 8 figure GUIDs..

mysql_query("UPDATE `ipb_users` SET `etguid`= '".$etguid."' SET `cod4guid`= '".$cod4guid."' SET `bf2guid`= '".$bf2guid."' WHERE `userid`='".$user."'");
}

// Sorry if there's any errors - i didnt test it on anything.

echo "GUID's updated!";
