What does the "V" stand for in vbulletin?
 
So what does it stand for? Did they just call it vbulletin because the v looks like a checkmark in the logo?

I have seen a few previous posts about this, to be honest, I don't think it stands for anything (at least to my knowledge). I suppose it "could" stand for plenty of things, plenty of things comes to mind, although I am sure one of the devs. or John could tell you what it means if anything :).

I just thought I was really stupid, lol. I was thinking of things it could stand for but it's hard to think of words that start with v.

That's what I was thinking. Does anyone know for sure? Why isn't on any vbulletin websites like it was with ubb?

The v doesn't stand fopr anything but just there to look cool according to John thtourgh a post by Kier (thread: http://www.vbulletin.com/forum/showt...170#post290170).

I think x would have been better. The link you gave didn't work. Thanks for the info though.

it means "visual"
because it started out as a project for their visual basic forum...
http://www.vbforums.com/

But, as I know, as we speak, its just vBulletin. Not "Visual Bulletin" board, etc

If I stand corrected, please correct me... :)

FWIW, the official reason is that there is no particular reason.
