Default is vbulletinsetup.com safe?
is vbulletinsetup.com affiliated with vbulletin.com ?

I was registering and it asked me to enter some personal information but I wasn't sure. =/

Move this thread if necessary.

Thanks!

Don't think it's affiliated with vBulletin.com one bit.

vBulletinSetup.com is not affiliated with vBulletin.com - the information it asks you to give is a vBulletin board URL and a vBulletin.org/com account name (so yours is Xtrigit) - This isn't really classified as personal information, though the information is not shared.

The information is not even obligatory to provide, it is just so that the staff can put you into the "vBulletin Owners" group which gives you further access to the site, such as access to modification and skin downloads provided by members over there, however, if you make 15 posts you are put into this group anyway.

Not quite, the information IS required.

Thank you all for your help

It's not affiliated with vBulletin but it's trusted, IMO.

That information isn't really private anyway, so you could just make it up if you really wanted to...
