The "_back" tables are backups of the users and user_packs. These are there for 2 reasons:
1) In case a user's account or package is deleted accidentally. 2) In case the user signs up with valid information, then changes it and abuses your service you still have valid contact information on the user. I was intending to add an option to enable or disable the "backups" but I was going to see how the current users felt about it.

Hmm. Well if we are doing that... Is there a way we can make it track ALL user account changes, instead of just current and original.

Well, there are many ways of "backuping" data, you can add an "activation" or "visibility" boolean field in the table, so you are not forced to delete the user record in the database . You just change the status.

I find this method easier based on the current code that was in the system prior to my arrival.
