PR is confusing me?

[Dreads]

I am just wondering how a page like this thread
http://www.ghforum.net/showthread.php?t=1870

Have more pagerank then my main url
http://www.ghforum.net

Compare the Link backs.. The thread has 50 and my main page has 3700 ...

Can someone explain this?

Don't worry about it, PR is useless, this last update that google did only strengthened the theory...high PR does not guarantee rankings and I know you are not planning on selling links.....or are you?

Homepages ususally is higher then the forum or the same

Seo Ranter <- I never sold a link but i believe the skin i had before had a lot of random links and could google of dropped my pagerank?

The links were inside the copyright

Don't feel bad - My homepage on one site is a PR 4 and the memberlist and FAQ pages went to a PR 6.

its amazing how people are still going on about pagerank, it has no real value ? Unless you're thinking of using it as an incentive to sell links without nofollow , which is mighty risky now.

How does google know if someone sold a link?

Their algorithms are the best. It is smart to not question it.
