If you go to the main forum there are threads on what the various things mean. Or, most of them you can hover over on a computer and it will display what it means.
Bold threads mean you haven't read the thread in its entirety yet. Under "forum tools" is "mark forum read" which will mark every thread read, so only threads with new posts will show up bold.
Hope that helps.
