I do not agree with the information in this post.

If you wanted to setup a forum to use information from another forum, such as users/pms/post/threads but everything else be seperate you would install to vbulletin forums into the same database

you would use database prefixes for eample databaseB_forums databaseA_forums

Do make them share the same information you would then remove prefixs for certain tables so that it both forums are using the same table for the user for example.

This is what was being mentioned on vbulletin.org

This would allow you to have to completely different sites while allowing the same users to log into both sites and read the same pm's and have the same profile info.

If you had a general chat room, you could fill that room with the same content on both forums.
