So much that they should have "The vBulletin Apprentice". I could just see Kier saying "You're FIRED!"

I think that their probably worth around $100,000 at least. Mabye more, like close to a quarter million.

As far as I know, Jelsoft hasn't penetrated the enterprise sector yet, so the number wouldn't be high. But I wouldn't be surprised if ,in a short time, Jelsoft unveils a new line-up of products for the enterprise sector. It's a business sector that could send a lot of money to the company.
Again, this is my point of view, since I do not know their goals and current position about the subject.

Steam is Valve's client to play their Half-Life based games such as Counter-Strike, Team Fortress, and Day of Defeat. The forums are VBulletin based.

On another note, 92,000 members and 850,000 posts. Very impressive stats, especially since the opened January of 2003.

There are more known sites that use vBulletin to power their community, but that doesn't mean Jelsoft benefits from their income they make by it :) They still only paid $160 for the owned license (or leased license: $85).

I think all numbers in this thread are just pure speculation :)

I think you didn't really understand the point either. Read the first thread carefully, especially the part saying should they sell they company / script rights ? .

Dude, you brought the enterprise thing up lol, I wouldn't expect people to not comment on it.

Yea, I guess so, but the thing about steampowered forums just didn't have it's place here. It's not a warning, just a pointer for your next posts :)
