+#Before starting ensure you have installed the mysqlclient package https://github.com/PyMySQL/mysqlclient-python
+#It can be downloaded from command line with pip:
+#pip install mysqlclient
+#
+#You will also have to create a new ban table for inserting converted data to per the schema:
+#CREATE TABLE `ban` (
+#  `id` INT(11) UNSIGNED NOT NULL AUTO_INCREMENT,
+#  `bantime` DATETIME NOT NULL,
+#  `server_ip` INT(10) UNSIGNED NOT NULL,

+#This is to prevent the destruction of existing data and allow rollbacks to be performed in the event of an error during conversion
+#Once conversion is complete remember to rename the old and new ban tables; it's up to you if you want to keep the old table
+#
+#To view the parameters for this script, execute it with the argument --help
+#All the positional arguments are required, remember to include prefixes in your table names if you use them
+#An example of the command used to execute this script from powershell:
+#python ban_conversion_2018-10-28.py "localhost" "root" "password" "feedback" "SS13_ban" "SS13_ban_new"
+#I found that this script would complete conversion of 35000 rows in approximately 20 seconds, results will depend on the size of your ban table and computer used
+#
+#The script has been tested to complete with tgstation's ban table as of 2018-09-02 02:19:56
+#In the event of an error the new ban table is automatically truncated
+#The source table is never modified so you don't have to worry about losing any data due to errors
+#Some additional error correction is performed to fix problems specific to legacy and invalid data in tgstation's ban table, these operations are tagged with a 'TG:' comment
+#Even if you don't have any of these specific problems in your ban table the operations won't have matter as they have an insignificant effect on runtime
+#
+#While this script is safe to run with your game server(s) active, any bans created after the script has started won't be converted
+#You will also have to ensure that the code and table names are updated between rounds as neither will be compatible
