Creative way to ask the question. :)
  1. Create a plugin.
  2. If you want this trimmed effect on just the forum index, select the "forumhome_start" hook. If you want it trimmed everywhere in the forum, select the "global_setup_complete" hook.
  3. Paste in the following code.
PHP Code:
foreach (array_keys($vbulletin->forumcache) as $forumId) {
    $description = $vbulletin->forumcache[$forumId]['description'];

    if (strlen($description) > 50) {
        $vbulletin->forumcache[$forumId]['description'] = substr($description, 0, 50);
    }
}
