Okay, just so no one posts about this again...
the 'ORDER BY t.status=5,lastreply' clause is meant to float the threads
with a status of '5' to the top of the list... it is NOT meant to only grab
threads where the status = 5. Oh and believe me, when I take this out of
the query, it CERTAINLY doesn't add any more than possible 1/4 of a
millesecond to the speed of the SELECT statement.
