I ended up requesting 3 times as many posts as I needed and manually removed duplicate threads.

One other thing I can't do is mimic WHERE post_moved <> 1 The documentation mentions how to emulate less than or greater than or LIKE, but not "not equal" to. I suppose the other alternative would be to emulate WHERE post_moved = NULL , but I'm not sure how to set the value to NULL without turning it into a four letter string.

Any suggestions would be appreciated.
