decrement_counter(counter_name, id)

  Decrement a numeric field by one, via a direct SQL update.
This works the same as increment_counter but reduces the column value by 1 instead of increasing it.
Parameters
- 
counter_name - The name of the field that should be decremented. 
- 
id - The id of the object that should be decremented or an Array of ids. 
Examples
# Decrement the post_count column for the record with an id of 5 DiscussionBoard.decrement_counter(:post_count, 5)
