| The thread counter on the main page is off from the final statistic determined in another thread. We already hit 3,000,000 threads. I know why now, because the counter doesn't use the actual number of threads in the section. It multiplies the number of pages of listings of threads by 25. |

| The problem is that the max number of threads in a page of listings is 27, except on the front page where it is 26. That means the counter needs an adjustment. |

@Richie
That is the flawed value. The CURRENT real count is actually closer to the following if current statistics are inputted:
best approximation of # of threads in OT = ((# of pages in OT - 1)*27)+26
Which comes up 3239972 as of my last inputting of values. |

@Richie
I bet someone forgot to change how the counters' values are determined when the # of threads in a listing was bumped up. |
