THREAD is the initial *starting* post.
POST is a reply to a THREAD or a reply to a post within a thread.
POST is a form of COMMENT - they are mutually exclusive:
With the core Forum module, comments (from the core Comment module) are posts. Flexiforum allows you to use Node Comments instead of Comment for forum posts, allowing them to be nodes instead of comments. If you are using this behaviour then POST replaces COMMENT. Otherwise POST does not exist and you are using COMMENTS instead. You cannot have both.
