The default settings should be fine for most users. Everything else is mostly personal preference.
so technically it doesnt matter if i have a . oppsed to a - as a seperator then?
I think the default - has been said to be the preferred separator.
Support for the "-" seperator to represent a blank space is widely supported within all search engines. However other seperators such as the "_" and "." character would produce wholly different results.
For example;
look at vbseo - Google Search
look-at-vbseo - Google Search
look_at_vbseo - Google Search
Whilst the results for "look at vbseo" and "look-at-vbseo" are different, Google results actually highlight text with "look at vbseo", whereas the third and final search result highlights Google inability to recognize certain seperator characters.
Therefore it is best off to use the "-" character as a seperator to maximize search engine indexation and relevancy.

Using "-" is a bajillion times better than _
Using underscore, the SE's think of all of those keywords in only that phrase, whereas the dash you get credit for each individual word when searching.. (if that made any sense).
