Count of posts wrong in a thread

[JohnF]

When I go to this thread the header and footer lines (the ones that shows the total count of posts to the thread) are wrong. They say that the page contains post #51 of 51, but it is quite clear that there are in fact two posts shown on the page. Looking at the "link to this post" for the second post shows that it is post #52.

I think this means some of the posts have been deleted; I assume that deleted posts stay in the post count, because the IT folks can still see them, even though they aren't publicly displayed.

Just guessing, though.

Ron is correct, there was one accidental blank post in that thread that got removed.

It wasn't so much the fact that the last post was numbered 52 as the fact that the header/footer lines just said '51 of 51', despite the fact that there were very obviously two posts being displayed on the page. They can't both be #51, so I'd expect to see something like '51 to 52 of 52'
