Google indexes my forum and I put the same meta description on every page.
Can someone look http://www.picatura.ro/ in the source code to my forum and tell me what's wrong?

costy neamt, your site is running phpBB3 not Icy Phoenix!
Have you already search on phpBB.com for an answer?

Yes, they told me that need different descriptions on each page, but my forum has 28,000 pages and is impossible to make 28,000 different descriptions.

Sure, you can obtain different descriptions for different page type (for example "viewtopic" or "viewforum") but not for same page type with different contents.

Google webmaster tools shows me (5790) and duplicates metadescriptions (4907) Duplicate title tags. Can I get a penalty in the SERPs, right?

Yes... but you need to install a dedicated mod for that.

Check the SEO mod for phpBB 3.
