Looks like James is in on the bidding. Is that James the co-owner of vbulletin or JamesUS the mod?

Skuzzy, if I was you, I would end the auction now, and sell it to James, if it's James from the vB Team that is the highest bidder at the moment. :)

I would prefer to see Jelsoft own the domain.

And me too :)

OH MY GOD! $405!!!

Yeah, if that's James from Jelsoft, then now's the time to end the auction IMO. :o

ask him if he is ^^

Yep, I would prefer it to go to it's rightful owner too..Jelsoft. :p

The funny thing is James could've just asked skuzzy for the domain before it was on eBay and get it for about $10, but now he's paying $405 :D

I guess it's easily affordable. :p

SkuZZy is able to check if he's James from Jelsoft or not, just click View page with email addresses link and he should get james@vbulletin.com.

[high]* N9ne puts in an offer for $1,000,000 :D[/high]

I'll accept that kindly ;)

Hi all,

BGray here. I'm relatively new to vbulletin but I'm coming on fast and I love It.

In response to some posts made here about trademarks, I can't find any for the word vbulletin at USPTO. Maybe I'm missing something though. :nervous:

Most companies wouldn't have any problem with someone else owning another extension of their name if the content doesn't put a bad light on the name, especially since the winner of the .net auction will probably develop a good site for the community. But I'm no expert on these things either.

Anyway, to my point:

I am the owner of vbulletin.us .
I would love to create a site that would be useful to this community as it is one of the best I've ever seen.

I'm wanting to know if any of you out there would be interested in partnering with me to create a site that would bring added value to the vbulletin community.

I will provide the name, license, hosting and anything else I can.
You provide the design and format.

Anyone interested please email me and we can work it out from there.

Thanks!

BGray

Well i don't thin you'll get an offer because we have an official templates, hacks and support site already - i can't see what there is left to do :)

- miSt

If not, that's OK too. :)
Just want to put it to good use.

bgray, there is always room for more. Go with it. There may already be official templates, hacks and support sites, but there is more that can be offered. Too many people around here would rather offer a negative opinion instead of a helpful one.

I will create a .NL domain, with original vB site in dutch ;)

Who bought this?

The domain name was sold privately, out of ebay this evening. It was sold to James, from Jelsoft. I apologize to all the people who were bidding on the auction or had planned to make a bid for the name, but I felt that selling it to the original founder of vbulletin was probably the best and most honest thing to do.

SkuZZy

Yay, thumbs up to SkuZZy and Jelsoft. :)

damn dude, it was going for like 400+ bucks, oh well probably better this way

I'm interested, PM me. :)

Well done, SkuZZy - that is indeed a very honorable thing you did there. :) I salute you.

I'm glad you did it too. :)

yeah, good thing you've done SkuzzY *thumbsup*

ahh blackmale woulda been more reasonable in my eyes... lmao but im sure jelsoft is glad to have it now :)

lol, I didn't need to blackmale :D

It's blackmail, not an African-American man. :)

nice one

*pats skuzzy on the back*

That's why BBAdmins came around. :)

(NOTE: v2 under development. It will open soon)

What would they use against Skuzzy? He's been nicr to hand it to him without any blackmail. ;)

He probably got a better price for it this way than he would have on e-bay. ;)

Some of those other bidders looked desperate for that domain. ;)

Called an 'af'ro-amer'ican'
Got in America as slaves of the white people.
Got tortured, killed and discriminated.

By Martin Luther King the black people got
as many rights as a white man!



=================
Ya, i learned this today @ school ;)

How much (if you don't mind my asking)?

I'd prefer to keep it confidential. But let me put it this way, if anyone needs another owned vbulletin license, please contact me :D

Sounds to me like someone got paid in vbulletin licenses. How much are they going for?

Ooo Skuzzy! *Will contact* :p

how about vbulletin.info redirecting to perfume :D
