    I think that the count of how many read a post, is more important...better still, which posts begin, or contribute to an interesting thread.

    Could someone do a post transplant and help save boomboom's post count.

    These post counts are the actual correct ones now. The board was updated and posts recounted.

    I'm pretty sure that post counts can just randomly get messed up on their own for a variety of reasons, although they're usually fairly accurate. The vbulletin update goes back through ALL the posts and recounts them, meaning they ARE accurate after the update.

    Nobody screwed with post counts, really. Ohms made a bot that posted a lot, which isn't screwing with post counts but just...extreme post padding. If anything, i think all the copying of that thread did more to screw up the post counts than anything.

    The forum update recounting posts isn't screwing with post counts.

    You wouldn't be in this mess if you didn't copy Ohms' thread 8 times!

    Can we just forget about all of this now? Geez, I've never been so aware of post counts in my life...
