Silly vbulletin question. Please Read!

Must you always do that? lol

In a word, yes.

Or in another word... vBB

[brainwashed]

for some reason everytime i said "vb" around my friends it became "Visual Basic" so I just caught on to the thing of calling it vbb (vbulletin board) ...maybe im just a moron?

[BigJohnson]

Ya and also one other thing that i have a question about. What made the company decide that the v is lowercase?

vB?

hehe

[Matthew Gordon]

The 'v' is in lowercase becuase it stands for nothing, just like the 'n' in my site name (VGGMn)

[Brandon]

Oh, come on. Your n HAS to stand for SOMETHING! LOL

[phill2003]

i think its there to make it stand out from the crowd and give it an identity, sort of like a logo you say vbulletin (if your interested in message boards) they know which one your on about.

it doesnt necessarily have to mean anything, but you have to admit it does make it stand out quite well....

[Cyborg from DH]

I like the vBB!

You couldn't be anymore correct. Ya u are right. It does actually make it stand out. Plus it catchy.

I'm sure the 'v' stands for visual because John and James used to run a site about visual basic and I'm sure I remember John or someone posting that. I used to browse this site alot before I bought my leased license and I know that's what it used to stand for at least.

EDIT: Well that's what it used to stand for I'm sure, but now it doesn't mean anything.

its sorta asking what does "n" mean in nVidia...

It has never stood for anything. Never, ever...posts from Kier and other vBulletin developers have said time and time again it stood for NOTHING. Just because it came from a Visual Basic site does not mean it stands for visual...geez...its not hard to comprehend people lol

Oh someone please close this topic, people calling it "VBB" or "Virtual Bulletin" just stresses me beyond belief.

[Ksilebo]

Exactly! I'm going to research that though.

[Tolitz]

or what does "n" mean in nSync

[Matthew Gordon]

Technically, I could say it literally means "nothing". But it is really just... there.
