Hi all, Let's all talk about how well/or not so well our forums are doing. Tell each other what you have done that is making it successful or unsuccessful. Also, with your post please list what type of site your forum relates to. For example, mine relates to Movies.

I have just started an online writing community. The community has nearly 30 members. Only 2 or 3 of them are talking. Is this the typical ratio? Because I manually approve registrations, I see people register, then never post a thing. I don't understand the dynamic behind it; I am …

I've considered this question in some detail. Actually I've seen many "spammers" who advertise their site and then get banned after one warning.
