Not knowing is driving me crazy: What do the various symbols (flame, bell, etc.) next to the titles of certain threads mean. I was trying to find a FAQ or Forum guide to explain it, but I can't find one; and the correct search terminology eludes me at the moment.

Thanks!
 
The bell symbolises it's a thread that you're 'watching', so either something you've posted in previously or one you've pressed 'watch thread' on.

Edit: I think (not 100%) that the flame symbol on the left is a button to take you to the first unread post in a thread you've opened before. The blue does exactly the same thing for a thread you haven't opened before so would by default take you to the first post.
 
Flame = Hot topic
Blue Dot = Regular topic

Highlighted = Unread posts
Faded = All posts read
