bug in notifications saying: Your Notifications: 4,294,967,295

My notifications and several other peoples notifications are saying:
Your Notifications: 4,294,967,295

I noticed this occurred to myself after using the 'delete visitor messages sent by user' button in the admincp.

Can you recreate this on an unmodified test board? If so, please submit a bug report including full details of how to recreate this issue.

I do not have the time to make a test board and then set up visitor posts, and then get everything right like that.

This is what I have noticed: It occurs when a user has had a soft deleted visitor message on their visitor messages, and then when a user mass spams visitor messages and I go and mass prune their visitor messages in the admincp it then throws out the number of notifications they have.

The only way I have worked out how to fix this per person is to go and hard delete that soft deleted post in their visitor messages.

I would love for a better way to fix the notification count tho.
