Modification Name: Last Member = Total Members
Author(s): AllenAyres, Charles Capps
Description: Looking to add some zip back into your ubb.forum?
All forums have a plethora of peeps who register and never come back to participate... while this gives you a nice number of members, the sheer number of profiles/ size of the member files needing to be searched through/loaded during routine board functions can add significant server overhead. You can prune your memberlist back, but then it looks like you killed your forum's popularity. Using this simple mod will boost "Total Members: x" number back up to its once proud status while still allowing you to prune the members back to more manageable sizes.
It keeps the "Total Members: x" set to the last regged/approved member number
