User Created Forums

[Awjvail]

Hi there,
I've been looking for this on here for a while, but with no luck..

I'm looking for a modification that allows a user (one with a premium subscription) to create their own forum, that they are a moderator of, in a category set aside for forums of this nature.

I'm not sure if it is possible... I've seen it done on other forums, but I don't know if they are created manually by admins for the users, or if they are done by the user themselves.

Thanks :)

that's forbidden unless you have a licence for each forum ....

There was a mod to do this, but it was banned for supposedly breaking the licensing terms for vBulletin. Really long discussion started about it, with constant arguing over license terms and everything else. Called vB Hosting I think.

There was a way it could be legal according to that topic, but since I can't find the topic...

Either way, it was generally seen as breaking terms for allowing you to run a vBulletin/Ezboard system.

vBulletin license grants you the right to run one instance (a single installation) of the Software on one web server and one web site for each license purchased. Each license may power one instance of the Software on one domain. For each installed instance of the Software, a separate license is required. Modifications to the Software or database to circumvent the one-license-one-board rule are prohibited.

I think he was refering to the abillity of special members of the particular board being allowed access to create forums (NOT A BOARD) under a CATEGORY that is defined by the administrator. Not multiple boards, instalations, but forums and sub-forums.
I would like to see that kind of modification also..
