    you end up with something like this:

    oXXXXXXXd commented last year (Migrated from github.com)

    so you get the github username, but that’s it.

      ah, thanks. i guess just linking to the GitHub user page would be sufficient as acknowledgement. on the other hand, as long as you keep the GitHub repo, that would not be an issue anyway.

      ghost users would be a terrible idea, as it would just fill your server with garbage xD (have that problem with another program)

        To be fair it’s only the name. The only link is to github, rather than the user profile.
