Just an FYI, because I've been answering this question a lot lately with my clients, you can use vbulletin 4x's built in mobile style and google will pass it.
Thank you for sharing this valuable link !! I tested my forum script and got "Fantastic !!" (at least in Greek language). http://www.christeris.net/bb/
I've seen yours, really nice work, but your style is not for sharing while the other is.
Thanks for viewing our forum template, I only edited some small parts to make vB style better
I will design some vBulletin templates soon and share them for free but not for this template

This will buy you some time to make a proper responsive design for your forum, and you don't have to worry about losing your rank in google.
Maybe you misunderstood because mobile style is different from responsive style so that it can still affect by this update

This doesn't work. In our settings we have it set to redirect to the mobile theme for mobile users. But when I test the URL in the link posted, it fails. How are you creating the redirect?

Thanks.
Do a test. Make the mobile style to be default even for the normal website and then check again the URL.
Have many years to work with the mobile style, but I think that is not really responsive. Is just a normal style with special templates for short wide screens.
Not 100% sure, but I think that Google checks if the template (syntax on templates) is responsive and not if the template can works is short wide screens.
EDITED: Try this link: http://www.forobook.com/ If you see the page's code you'll see that the template has special syntax. I think that Google checks for something like this.
No I don't think so, I found some vB 4 sites they converted to responsive design, it's also a good theme that I have seen before.
This is awesome. Does this responsive style work with current vb modifications? If it does are you willing to share or sell it? I'm having a headache with the vb mobile style and i'd rather not maintain two different styles.

Of course, they only change on templates so that all modifications will work on responsive theme...because it does not like mobile style.
Honestly responsive themes are themes like you are using on your desktop but it changed to view well on mobile devices.
