this could be a major security flaw,

if you have a forum that you want to have the posts validated by a mod
not only do posts waiting validation show on the mod cp, but also ALL the hidden posts created with this hack...

considering some forums may have hundreds of hidden replies, they would all show up with a default validate yes
the only work around i can see is to run a query making default NO to validate, it may stop accidental unhiding of posts
(without getting into this hack being re-written)
