Wouldn't you just not enter a description in for the category?

When you edit the forum and it says 'category (or forum) description' just don't enter anything.

Wouldn't that also affect the meta description for that particular category ?

@pspmodandcfw:

Edit this template of your style : forumhome_forumbit_level1_nopost

And remove this line from it :

<if condition="$show['forumdescription']"><div class="smallfont">$forum[description]</div></if>
