New Post URL- How it works

you will see from the forum index that

http://forums.mysite.com/category/threadtitle-new-post.html
and then when you click on it in the address bar you see

Surely this is spreading links away from the main thread (duplicate issue) - is there settings where this is set or what...

Just wondering how this works exactly

Is this not linking to pages when it should be linking to the main thread title (in an seo view)

or is it ok...

Hello Frank,

these URLs are used instead of direct ones for performance reason (additional db queries will be required otherwise).

they are still ok seo-wise though yeah?

Yes, it's ok. These URLs are 301-redirected to the resulting showthread URLs.
