Changing all Thread titles to contain my forum name again

[StarBuG]

Hi

A few years ago I removed my forum name from all thread titles
beacuse I thought they would rank better.

Now where my forum is somewhat big I would like to have
my page name back in the thread titles that get listed in
google for better branding purposes.

so instead of

This is a thread title

I want it to show in Google SERPs as

This is a thread title |Patientenfragen.net

When I introduce this change, will this has an effect on my PageRank values
for all threads because the title changed?
Will this have a negative effect on Listings in Google?
Where was this setting again?

Pagerank depends on mostly the dofollow backlinks you have and those links quality. It might have some minor bad effects. But will not hurt you from top to bottom

We don't suggest this for long tail purposes. If you want, you can back-trace the steps to remove it (3.x only). [How To] Remove Forum Title from Thread Pages for Long Tail Optimization / Increased Thread Title Relevancy - vBulletin SEO Forums in vb4, this is by default.
