I can figure out how to do that when someone makes a new post in there, but I'd like to make it so that whenever a thread gets moved there, the posts no longer count towards a person's postcount.

That's a bit complicated. What you want to do requires updating the counters.

You could make a cron script that updateds the post counts every day or every week.
Be aware that this could be a bit resource intensive, depending on the amount of members and posts you have.
