Articles as threads as well, good or bad for SEO?

Seeing that IP.Content has the capability of creating a new thread everytime a new article is posted, my question is: Is this good or bad for SEO purposes?

Do search engines see this as duplicate content and a weak attempt at creating more content on the site, thus probably flagging it as spam?

 

I've always wondered about this...

 

Also, can IPB function without using session IDs within URLs?

I doubt it, but if you worry about it, you can let the posts be created in a forum hidden to guest. 

But I wouldn’t use the forum-post-from-database-records in 4.x anymore. It has very little use and creates double entries in the activity feed.

Oh I see... That's what I thought. It would be seen duplicate content because they would have the same title. 

How about the session IDs in the URL? Is there a way not to have that?

It sounds like your php session cookies are messed up possibly and its tagging it into the url to get around the issue.
