I stumbled upon a Video Game vB last year, and saw how horribly the Admin treated people...I found a dead site that used vB, and wanted to make it bigger than the previously mentioned site. I became friends with the Admin there, and became an Admin myself. Then he got Ghey, and Deranked me, so I made my own site...Right now, I'm heavily researching MySQL and PHP and how they co-relate to vBulletin, and I'm an aspiring h4x0r myself...
I've become a member of varios sites that use every Forum software package under the sun, vB is definitely the BEST of the bunch...And worth every penny |

I saw mention of it on the UBB forums. So thought I would check it out

It was either vB or UBB, and I had never used either in the past, so I had no way of really knowing which was better. I liked how vB had a working live demo that I could check out. That was good. Then I compared some vB forums to UBB forums and it just seemed like vB was better. I emailed vB asking which one was better (LOL!) and got a reply from Steve Machol. He said that he had switched over from UBB and it was the best decision he made for his board. Well I checked out some more boards, this board included and then one day went out (ok, got on my computer) and ordered a license. And let me just say that it was worth every penny. I could not be happier with my decision to go with vB. Aside from the very important lesson I learned early on... (which is BACK UP before every hack!) :ermm: aside from that, it's all been great. Now to look into this 3.0 thing...

Well...
My first encounter with a vB board was CDV's (The Game Developing Company who brought out Sudden Strike and Cossacks) boards...I registered there in about February 2001... After that, I became friends with a few members, and I decided to join their EzBoard, and became an Admin...Back then, it was Squad600...Alot of members from CDV joined, and we eventually branched out...After a case with hackers destroying the board, Squad600 decided that they would try and re-build...One of the members went and got a UBB Board on a server, and got everyone from Squad600 to join...We then built up a massive community...I became a Moderator, and then someone who would turn out to be a good friend joined...After a little while of putting up with the Owner's Nazish Regime, he decided that he would bring everyone who was attacked by the Owner for whatever reason, to his own vB Board that he purchased, and I went over and joined after Arkan (the owner) went psycho and de-moted everyone except himself... After about 2 weeks, Fade (my friend) got an email from Arkan, asking him to come back...Fade refused, saying that his board was going great...2 days later, the server was hacked and the board deleted...That stemmed a large battle between the boards, and I became an Admin at Fade's board...After a few months, and several vB boards and communities later, I began to focus on vBulletin Hacks...I had already registered at vBulletin.org, because Fade kept referring our Webmaster to hacks such as the Quick Reply Box on here...Then our Webmaster went rogue, so I stepped in as the Webmaster, and so I remained right through until 3 weeks after I bought my own vBulletin Licence, got hosting and a Domain Name, and branched out on my own... And thats my vB saga Satan |

It's embarassing to say, but I was actually using a pirated version of vBulletin up until January 20th. However, my business partner told me that he paid for the license. I got an email from James that said I was using vB illegally, so I investigated, fired my business partner, and banned his IP. I thought, instead of just removing the software that my members love, why not just buy it? Thats how I got into vB.
