I was wondering if someone could help me with something. I want to delete about 10,000 post from my board. Its not important post just our spam/chat room. But I don't want user post count to go down when I do it. Is there a way to prevent post count from going down when you delete certain threads.

Pruning threads/posts shouldn't affect post counts. However if you or a modification runs the "Update Post count" option in the AdminCP the post counts will get recounted to the new (lower) value.

There isn't a way to "prevent" it with default vBulletin neither have I seen such a modification.

Alright. Now I just have to figure out how to use the pruning option. ^.^ Thanks for the help.

It is not a VB3 engine, just a parsed copy!
