# Block crawler-trap URLs (forum-specific).
# NOT /threads/*/page-* — removed 2026-07-31. Those pages SELF-canonicalise
# (/threads/x.291/page-2 -> itself, with a "| Page 2 |" title), so they are distinct content,
# not duplicates: blocking them hid every post after the first 20 of any long thread, plus all
# the links on those pages. The duplicate-HOMEPAGE case people associate with this rule is a
# different URL shape entirely (/?page=N) and is already handled by a canonical back to /.
