I don't know if this exist or not.

This exist for IPB so it shouldn't be hard porting it to vBulletin.

Basically you're creating a new forum (but under same link) and all it does is the URL changes on the end. See screenshot

The license agreement does not allow running multiple boards on a single license.

You're not following on the request.. I would understand if I did this

www.test.com/forum
www.test.com/forum1

Then, i'll need a new license...However, it's under the same URL but I am creating forum but it becomes a whole new forum...hopefully u understad

So it's like a virtual board?

I'm not sure on that, it may be violating the licence agreement but I've not read it at length.

From the License Agreement (http://www.vbulletin.com/order/license_agreement.php):

Each License may run one instance of the Software on one domain.

under forum options:
"Forum is Active (Will not appear if set to no, but remains accessible if the forum's URL is known)"

Doesn't that serve a similar purpose to what you described?

I had no internet for a whole month.

The purpose is to create a whole new forum but it's under the same URL except it might be like /forum/index.php?=new_forum_name

However, I doubt it can be accomplish due to License Agreement.
