At the following page, it show zero PR, means no PR.
forums.seroundtable.com/index.php
But at forums.seroundtable.com, it shows PR 5.
It happen in many forums that the PR change by editing the forum address but same forum home page is shown with both addresses.
What is problem? What is the original rule of thumb to know the PR of forum? This is not for only forum's sites. All sites have the default or index page, for home page. Both are the different urls so the PR is also different for the two urls. Google's algo of PR is same for any kind of websites, not the unique for forums. There is no problem with PR algo or any forum's sites and there is no another rule of thumb to know PR of forums.
Yes. Its true. Because by entering your website ( forums.seroundtable.com ) it doesn't go to forums.seroundtable.com/index.php . your script has index.php but the script doesn't show it. So however theres no difference between forums.seroundtable.com and forums.seroundtable.com/index.php but as Google don't determine both of them as the same, the pagerank of these 2 links are different/ PR is unique to different pages. So what you are observing here is completing normal
forums.seroundtable.com/index.php
