Hack info

What does it do? - Basically, you can set a Minimum Characters number per post, per forum, so that if you post a message with a character count of less than the forum requirement, your Post count will not increase, but the Post is posted

Enjoy!

sounds awesome, does the recalculate postcount admin thingy stick to those new rules? Or, in other words, after installing this and recalculating, would people that only post LOL or lose those postcounts?

when running the queries, I got an error:
Quote:
MySQL said: You have an error in your SQL syntax near 'ALTER TABLE `forum` ADD `forumpostchars` CHAR (50) NOT NULL' at line 2
How do I fix?

I'm guessing that you may have had a second line when you executed the query

Sometimes, when you copy something, it copies the enter space for some unknown reason...

Just make sure it is only one line you are submitting
