    I will open an internet board (Invision Power Board v3.2 platform) at the end of the week.

    I was wondering, is it wrong for me to use arrow symbols in the thread titles like

    Thread Name (⇨ or →) Questions & Answers


    Using these type of symbols like ⇨ , → , etc. affect the forum visibility in the search engines once it gets indexed ?


    Thanks

    No you shouldn't allow any of this type if stuff . The eyes don't need to go over more special characters then it is needed .

    Just ignore the design issues that may appear... That symbol will be used only by me for some sticky topics who start with the same name
