I expect vbulletin.com probably took off in a similar way 10 years ago.

Yes it did. Only difference was the developer was an unknown who created what UBB users craved. He happened to use UBB for his site and when it didn't scale he created vbulletin. Interestingly enough he didn't release until it was ready and didn't try to sell a beta product.
