"Tricking" the data base [ Threads / Posts ]

[Lynne]

Oh, for some reason I thought you were talking about user post counts - my bad.

I am pretty sure you can't do what you want here with default vb software. The replycount and threadcount is all stored in the cache. I suppose you could write some plugin that acts between when it gets the count and when it spits it out and adds a certain amount of threads/replies to it then depending on the forumid. I'm really not sure what else you can do. I'm also not sure of all the places you would need to do this.

edit: There is some modification that is called something like "Fake Forum Statistics". Maybe that will do what you want.
