Counters and post counts do not reduce! - Now with addon for member count![v1.1]

HACK UPDATE!

If you had this hack installed previously, (before the 24th of November, 2002), UNINSTALL it, by looking at this attachment: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...&postid=315867

After you've uninstalled it, look at this attachment and apply the changes relevant: https://vborg.vbsupport.ru/attachmen...&postid=325308

If you are installing this for the first time, CLICK HERE!

Enjoy.

Update: 1st December 2002:

I have created an addon for this hack which means that when a member is deleted, the counter on forumhome will not decrease.

That is the attachment, only one modification to index.php required...it is in beta stages, if you find any bugs, please reply to this thread, however I don't think there will be any :) as I have tested it and it seemed to work.

Although it is good, I wont use it at my boards...

I feel it is just a way to:

a.) Promote mass spammers - if their posts are deleted, their Post Count doesnt go down? That wont deter them;)
b.) Promote how great your board is - If the posts dont go down, and a user looks in the board and finds like 3 threads and 20 posts when it says hundreds, or a user has now only 30 posts, but it says he has 130 etc, it looks bad, as if you are faking the counts...

Ah but hellsatan, wouldn't you hate it if your post count went down :p

Not really...

It would be an accurate reflection of the posts I have made...

I dont cheat the system, just spam it;)

LoL but do you ever prune :p

With my forum, 90k posts, I can't be bothered to backup the DB daily, so it's gonna be pruned eventually ;)

I havent pruned it yet, but my DB isnt large enough for me to warrant pruning...yet;)

It should be this:

PHP Code:


		
			
$countthreads=$DB_site->query_first('SELECT MAX(threadid) AS threads FROM thread');

All times are GMT. The time now is 06:00 AM.
