Doublepost = Not counted in user's post count

We all know that sometimes there is a need to post a couple times in a row, whether it be multiple attachments, posting updates, etc. This hack will make it so that the double/triple/whatever post is not added to the user's post count, but still shown and updated in the forum and thread count. I kow at some boards there is a lot of competition in post counts, and although doubleposting is not looked highly upon in most forums, this would ensure that the user isn't getting any benefit out of it. Plus people could use it for bumping topics, etc, etc, etc. This hack will also make it so if that doublepost is deleted, it will not subtract from the user's postcount. Since it was never added in the first place, it shouldn't be a problem .

NOTE: I did use (with permission) the query and if statement from Xenon's Prevent Doubleposting hack.

This is a simple hack which only involves 2 file edits (editpost.php and newreply.php). And it does work with the QRB =P. If you have any questions, etc, post them here.


DOESN'T WORK.

no problem, as long as we could solve it before i'm away it's no problem

the two differences in this hacks:
My Hack prevents doubleposting so you can just have one post in a row (except attachments or time...) so postcounter just gets up one time
Austins Hack allows double posting, but it's not counted to the postcount so doubleposting to increase post counts (called spamming ) isn't possible

Spamming isn't possible with yours during the preset time, though, right? BTW: What is the maximum limit on time for your hack? How far into the future can it be set? Might not be a bad idea to have a permanent time option for it, too.

the maximum timeperiod of my hack is also the maximum of unix-timestamp, so it was Year 2037 wasn't it?

if you set it up to that time, spamming isn't possible anymore
just if they use attachments or they are building spam teams
