weeks after google spiders, still old pages in SERPs

I installed vbSEO on Boxing Forums - Powered by vBulletin a few weeks ago and, approximately, the next day google came and spidered. However, many threads and posts (mostly by me) later, nothing comes up in google's SERPs. Doing a google search of site:www.fightgame.com displays all my old urls when it was a drupal CMS site. What's happening? Why is it taking so long for vbulletin to show up in google after it's been spidered?

Do I simply need to be patient? Did I do something wrong in my forum? Did I mess with the vbSEO options in a bad way?

yes

and your settings look fine. maybe just get more post, more traffic, and more backlinks

you can read this,, it has some great info Search Engine Optimize vBulletin 3.5-SEO vBulletin-Time2Dine Forum

and a small suggestion, turn member profiles off to spiders. once I did that, the bots really started concentrating on my forums

Tip: Remove the "Powered by vBulletin" part from your tempate.

Thanks guys for the advice. Joe, am I allowed to do that? I thought I might be violating something by removing those powered by's.

You can remove everything referring to "vBulletin" other than the copyright in the footer, unless you purchase the branding free version of vBulletin from Jelsoft.
