Problems with forum display

Hello,
I am having issues getting the BBpress forum to display in any sensible manner
At one point i made a category and used it as a page, this at least looked reasonable but didn’t allow for sections to be created. I am currently using the shortcode “[bbp-forum-index]” and now the catagoriess seems to show the sub forums. but they are all bunched together with a (0,0) next to each of them
Is there a way to split this up or create a proper forum layout?
my forum page: http://watracing.com/?page_id=132

I am new to BBpress

I changed things and removed the page with the short code and just linked to a higher catagory called “forum”
It still shows the sub forums on seperate pages and with the (0,0) on the main page
I would really like the forum to look similar to a phpbb style forum

Try enabling permalinks for starters and after surf to website.com/forums/. This is an automatically created page which will display your forum, I have no idea how you can go there without enabling permalinks.

permalinks are set to default, is this the wrong setting?

when navigatiing to /forums i get this error:

Not Found

The requested URL /forums was not found on this server.
