Why every thread created have two different permalink, for example

http://www.example.com/forum/topic/test-post

and

http://www.example.com/forum/topic/test-post#post-5

[Gautam]

http://www.example.com/forum/topic/test-post#post-5

this is just the post id link, it scrolls down till the post number 5 when we go to that link.

for google are two different url or not ?

I think it should not be a issue with Google because it helps the user and till you are genuinely serving your visitors, Google will respect you. Earlier I heard that SEs might treat them as different URLs but I strongly believe that its not the case.

It’s not the case. You may look at this as one URL with subsections (#subsection-title).
