Duplicate Content and vBulletin Forums
I recently wrote the article Duplicate Content and vBulletin Forums (http://www.vbulletin-faq.com/forum/showthread.php?t=80), and have just updated it as well.
Long story short, the article discusses how Google handles duplicate content, especially as it applies to vBulletin forums. The article demonstrates that a normal vBulletin forum can not only have the archive pages and the main thread pages indexed, but also without any discernable penalty.
The article discusses why this is and why duplicate content is not an issue within a forum, why the Printable version of the thread along with the archive can all be indexed simultanously.
