XF 1.2 Does making a node not count for posts Recalcuate User Posts?

Whats the best way of handling this. We want to make certain forums not count for posts so user post counts deflate.

No, you would need to recalculate the post counts.

There are various queries which have been posted, e.g. http://xenforo.com/community/threads/recalculate-and-update-all-user-post-counts-query.19736/

Take a backup first.

Thanks!

Do I use the first one or the second one to account for forums that shouldn't be in your total.

The second one.
Note the excluded forums in red - you need to edit that with your actual node IDs.
