Biggest names running vBulletin?

[too_cool_3]

I'm curious what are some big names out there running vBulletin for their forum. This question sparked my interest when I came across this post.

Thanks,

Of course if you mean "big" referring to POSTS, then http://forums.offtopic.com/ with 122 million posts (!!!!!) is the largest vb I know. (the sum from each forum doesn't sum up to that number though)

AND of course, the http://forums.somethingawful.com/ with 97 million posts, running VBULLETIN version 2 !!!!!!!

Holly cow.
I always thought the largest forums were in low millions. Learned something new today.

here are all the vbulletin boards listed in big-boards
any forum software can be large, there are several opensource boards that are just massive.

There are some not even on the list, I know that the BBC 606 sports pages has a huge amount of threads and posts, but they are not in the big board list, probably because its proprietary only to them

I don't think the OP is referring to size when he says 'big'. He most likely means 'big' as in popular names/brands. In the post he linked to, there are names like Skype and NBC. His question is: who uses vB?

[doggiebs]

I bet they don't change web host too often, it must take ages to backup and upload a database with 122 million posts in it. I bet phpmyadmin doesn't want to know with that upload.
