This is a cool hack and I don't understand some of the people posting the nasty things they have posted.

You can have the busiest forum in the world, and people wouldn't join it just because everyone else has.

Forum admins have being finding ways to manipulate their stats for ages, this is nothing new. This is just a tool that saves them time, nothing more. It wouldn't stop them from finding other ways of doing it. It would allow a lot of BB admin noobs to learn some of the tricks that the rest of us had to learn through hard toil.

And as for the people claiming it will affect them who have worked to do things the hard way building aup slowly etc etc etc, I say nonsense. Hands up anyone in here claiming that who did NOT register more than one account for themselves on their own forum ???

A good forum is created by ingenuity of differing methods. This is just one of theose ingenious methods. Make your site look busy, make it look big, but whatever you do, don;t make it look empty whilst using the hack! You have to work hard at it every day.

I for one have no problem manipulating my forum stats. No scruples, no conscience, NOTHING. Why not ? because I spent years posting on other forums, helping some geezers I never knew build up good communites with nothing more that casual thanx here and there, whilst they rake in good money on advertising and sponsorship. AND MOST OF US HAVE DONE THINGS LIKE THAT. Instead, do it on your own forums now! Spend your days there talking to all your imaginery friends until some real ones come along. :banana:

This little tool just makes the quick birds eye view of statistics look good a quicker way, so well done.
