Great little hack. Not your fault but it took too long (8 seconds on the larger forums and this is in the middle of the night with a small load.. 140k posts, 700k total). A quick modification and the link is now only visible to admins, normal users don't get the link:

open index.php, find:

PHP Code:

eval("\$forumbits .= \"".gettemplate("forumhome_forumbit_level$depth$tempext")."\";"); 


above that add:

PHP Code:

// *HACK: FORUM POST COUNTS

        if ($bbuserinfo[usergroupid]==6) {
            $replycountlink="<a href=\"javascript:whoposts($forum[forumid])\">$forum[replycount]</a>";
        } else {
            $replycountlink="$forum[replycount]";
        }
        // *HACK : FORUM POST COUNTS 


And then in the forumhome_forumbit_level1_post, etc templates, replace the link:

<a href="javascript:whoposts($forum[forumid])">$forum[replycount]</a>

with

$replycountlink
