UBB.Developers Forums General Discussion Chit Chat Post count and the shout box

That box, since it has to use counts from the post table would also include the shout box since the shoutbox really just uses a hidden forum. But these posts are purged after x number of shouts in the shoutbox (whatever you have configured).

You could add whatever the keyword for your shoutbox board to exclude it from the query if you wanted.
