yes and no errors :/
The admin functions do not recount member's posts.
Try this mod.

works perfect on my test site but what about a forum with 100k members and 400k posts? lol
only one way to tell :P
Yah, I image that it could pose a bit of a load on the server while it is running. ::)
Upload a MySQL backup of your current forums to your test forum and see how it runs. Be wise to have a backup anyways before doing this.

well it's on my dedicated server and it's quite powerful so it should be more than capable of doing this and yes i'm going to do two backups before i even think about doing this ;)
Good luck with it. :)
