On the forum index, I'd like the title to be

Forum Name - Description

but on the threads, I want the title to just be the threadname.

Is this possible?

I want it setup how http://forums.digitalpoint.com has it

You are talking about the <title> tags to put the title in the browser? If so, you need to modify the SHOWTHREAD template.

Yes, that is what I am talking about, but where in the SHOWTHREAD template should I edit?

You would edit the part where it says <title> This is from the SHOWTHREAD template (there is something similar in the FORUMDISPLAY template):
<title>$thread[prefix_plain_html] $thread[title]<if condition="$pagenumber>1"> - <phrase 1="$pagenumber">$vbphrase[page_x]</phrase></if> - $vboptions[bbtitle]</title>Change that line to what you want.
