[HOW-TO] Fix Random "Last Post By" Widths:
  1. Login to your vBulletin AdminCP
  2. GOTO: vBulletin Options > "Forum Listing Display Options"
  3. Fine "Last Thread Title Maximum Displayed Characters", change value to 15 or less
OR

In the instructions on Step 3 & 4 - Change the following:

HTML Code:
width="175"
Change this value to something higher to make sure it fits the varying size of your titles.
Don't forget to click INSTALL

I tried this in 3.8.1 and it didn't work for me. all it did was to take away the table/border on my my main forum.

If someone with knowledge of this mod (as it is not supported) would like to take a look inside my template for me, I would be grateful.

Many Thanks.
