Hi Rick,
Were you able to come up with a possible fix for this? My admin and I have done quite a bit of testing. I went in today to delete them but the same thing is happening. Any time I delete a first post, the post and thread #s mess up. The only way to fix this is to delete the entire forum and create a new one. Bummer!

Can this get fixed pretty soon? Thanks.
