WHY?

The only way you should ever change status names is using the Admin page found at Admin->Localization->Orders Status

Please explain.

Please explain.

i use if($orders_status_id == 1) ... else if =2, else if = 3 ... and i want to use them for a lot of sites,
so it's better change those sites to the same orders_status_id

I still don't understand "why".
What are each of these order-status values for, and why are you wanting to change them?
