If you take a look at some of the sites on the DP coop you'll find sites with well over 100.000 links....and a low PR.

The site is still PR8, even after PR update. Lot of go game players put the links to gokgs.com, but anyway, it's very strange. Our oldest go game site (1992), which has links from similar users/pages has only PR4: gobase.org If you compare the links of gobase.org and gokgs.com you may see that 90% of links they have are same.
I don't doubt it's a PR8, Go is a great game and I'm sure a lot of google people play it. Since KGS is one of the most popular internet go societies, then it makes sense. It's like there is only one microsoft.com or the "original" wikipedia.org...
This is a PR8 and there are thousands of reasons why. It has .edu backlinks clubs.uci.edu 1 eden.rutgers.edu 1 graphics.cs.uiuc.edu 1 www.cs.unm.edu 1 www.econ.umn.edu 1 www.wam.umd.edu 1 www.webpages.ttu.edu It is DMOZ listed, and there are 65,000 strong pages pointing to it.
The fact some high PR backlinks are from .Edu and .Gov have no relevance. They don't add 'extra weight' to a backlink - the only thing they do add is the PR weight in most cases, as most .edu and .gov sites have high a Pagerank.
This domain is 3 years old now.. Check here http://who.is/whois-com/ip-address/gokgs.com/ Code (markup): The PR is not fake check here : http://oyoy.eu/google/pr/?url=http%3a%2f%2fgokgs.com%2f&#r Code (markup): The site is a trusted link in GG. There is no secrets.. Good relevant back links, unique and fresh content (not duplicate with others website). Link Exchange with same website content. No error pages (like page not found) Good url Rewrite. What do you think ??
The PageRank of the site is valid - from Yahoo it looks like the site has over 60000 links. That I think is probably PR8 worthy.
here's what dnscoop says about the site. age 2yrs, 6mnths. 16days. PR8 75,996 backlinks 53,004 alexa worth $87,418
