Thread replies should be zero-indexed.

If someone posts a thread and no one replies to it, there should be 0 replies, not one. Right now the first post is counted as a reply, which doesn't make sense.

They are zero-indexed.

In case you wondered, I took this screenshot before answering your thread. Which now displays as having 1 reply.

Maybe there is an issue in case some spammer replied to a thread and we nuked it afterwards.

If that's the case, please give us a link to a thread that displays this issue.

Look at your "read before you post" example. It shows 1-reply but you are the only one that posted. Happens on a very large number of threads for me.

Beaverlicious: there had been a spammer posting in that thread, or at least someone whose post was deleted afterwards.

Also, this topic comes from the old forum, where there maybe was an issue in that count.

Kyatric is right, it's when a spammer posts in the forum and a mod/admin deletes their account. This deletes all their posts/threads but does not update the reply count. Will fix this shortly for future spam account deletions.

Fixed for next upload, am resyncing topic/post counts now
