Yes I too have wondered about this in recent days - probably a week. And it is on more than those 2 Forums too IIRC.

AFAIK every 35 or so posts - no matter whether posts are long or short, the thread [usually] starts a new page. Therefore a thread with under 35 posts should NOT be on to a page 2 in normal FT operating conditions.

That is how I understand it to work anyway.

There are FIVE multi-page threads on the front page of UA right now that do not follow that rule, so it may well be that Dan or FT amended the settings.

That does not bother me at all of course, but as post above says, if it may mean more corrupt threads down the line, point it out for the record in case it is a bug that might need to be looked at?
