Linear congruence.

Related observation: There are 26 letters in the alphabet, and 15 posts per page.

The numbers 26 (2x13) and 15 (3x5) are coprime. It will take 26 pages of this thread to get through 15 cycles of the alphabet. But each of those 26 pages will start with a different letter - the sequence is apetixmbqfujyncrgvkzodshwl. This cycle will repeat for the next 26 pages etc.
