The way vbulletin is programmed you get a choice of either or:

My Forums
Welcome to My forums

Or

My Forums, its a place where you create your own blah blah blah
Welcome to My Forums, its a place where you create your own blah blah blah

A more professional approach would be:

My Forums
My Forums, its a place where you create your own blah blah blah

Lets call this a bug please and fix it?

I disagree with you in a couple of respects. The first one is not just repeated text, but a welcome message and title in two different fonts. The second and third are way to wordy in my opinion. I don't find either unprofessional. And really are just minor gripes in terms of style.

FYI this is how I fixed it. I edited forumhome template:

<div id="pagetitle">
<h1>{vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}</h1>
<p id="welcomemessage" class="description">{vb:rawphrase welcome_to_the_x, {vb:raw vboptions.bbtitle}} Here is your place on the web to discuss dreams, help each other interpret dreams, and use the dream dictionary.<br> The number one site on the web about dreams!</p>

I presume you have your visitor welcome message doesn't already say something to this effect? Otherwise this kind of sounds like a message to people who don't already know what the forum is about. Again, a minor style gripe on my part.
