Keep post counters even after posts/threads have been deleted.

How would I do it?

Have your staff move them into a forum only staff can view. Periodically, you can prune that forum, which does not adjust post counts.

Pruning doesnt affect the post counters? but it deleted them still?
GREAT! thanks. :-p

Bear in mind if you Update Post Counts in Site Maintenance, the post count will be corrected (I believe this is the case).
