We have gone over this ad nauseum. Each forum has the thread count and page count for that forum. In the MK7 forum this is the number 1 thread based on both thread and page count. Accordingly the MK7 forum and the MK6 forum have different page and post counts for the thread in question. So yes it's the same thread. With different page and post count totals.
Jim. You say we have gone over this ad nauseum, but you still don't seem to get it.
You keep thinking it's the same thread with different page and post counts. It's not. It's not the same thread with different page and post counts. It's two completely separate, different threads. THREADS. With an "S", indicating multiple threads. Not just one thread.
Do you know why they have different page and post counts? Here's a hint. It's the same reason Harry Potter and Lord of the Rings have a different amount of pages. Because they're different books. The same way those are different threads.
Yes, this thread has more pages and posts than any other threads on the GolfMK7 section of the forum. However, this off topic thread section is shared across the MK5, MK6, MK7, and MK8. There are threads on those sections of the forums with more page and post counts.
