Hello, I have a site, www.twilightaddictz.com, with my vBulletin. I don't want a twilight site anymore, so I've decided to just make it a chat site, so it is teenvolume.net. I purchased teenvolume.net from godaddy, but I'm having a problem with replacing the domain name. Does anyone know how this is possible? I'm in desperate need of help.

Hey,
No need to double post.
You need to contact your web host and ask them to rename your site to your new domain name.
But before you do that, make sure that your domain is pointing to the right name servers. (Such as ns1.yourhost.com ns2.yourhost.com - it may not be in that exact format, but it will be similar)
Once this has been done, all you need to do is modify your settings under "vBulletin Options" in your admincp.
And of course, be sure to update your URL in the vBulletin members area. - Otherwise your forum will be unlicensed.
Hope that helps.

Firstly, you need to login to your Godaddy control panel. You now need to edit the domain settings for teenvolume.net and look for an option to change the "name servers".
Change these to: (Assuming you are using the same web host)
NS1.IPOWER.COM
and
NS2.IPOWER.COM
Detailed instructions: http://help.godaddy.com/article/664
Secondly, you need to contact your web host (IPOWER.COM) and ask them to rename your site from www.twilightaddictz.com to www.teenvolume.netComment
