is there a way to change the URL type, I think I've seen it somewhere but dont know where lol
Current format is forum/thread-2.html
for example instead of thread-2 it would be the threads name
Yes, but that requires advancd knowledge of search engine optimization, and you will most likely end up how I did, and how this poor fellow did:

If you really want to take a go at it, it's in ACP>Configuration>Server and Optimization Settings>Set "Enable search engine friendly URLs?" to "Enabled" and Enable search engine friendly URLs in archive?" to "Yes".
you can use
Google SEO plugin.
it requires its own
.htaccess file and rewrite rules are provided at
plugins page after activating the plugin
