A Practice Vbulletin

[no mods]

Is it possible for me to have a practive Vbulletin, so I can try as much as I want , withouth the risk of skrewing up my main forum. If so how would I do this, so my hosting doesnt think im running nulled boards or something. P.S. my hosting is Bravenet.

Well, you COULD install another vbulletin in another directory on your site (for example yoursite.com/test/) and make sure you create another database so you're not using the same one your live forums are on, and there you go. Make sure its closed to the public though.

Do I have to tell my hosting so they dont shut me down or something?

You shouldn't have to. No.
