That's just the way it's coded. You can go to FORUMHOME template and comment that out.

        {vb:raw header}

        {vb:raw navbar}

        <div id="pagetitle">
                <h1>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}</h1>
                <!-- p id="welcomemessage" class="description">{vb:rawphrase welcome_to_the_x, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}}</p  -->
        </div>

        <vb:if condition="$show['sidebar']">
        <div id="content_container"<vb:if condition="$show['sidebarposition'] == 'left'"> class="contentright"</vb:if>>
                <div id="content">
        </vb:if>
