    Do you "look into" your staff members?

    Because they could be staff on a forum that has a general audience of 13-17-year-olds, say a gaming forum, and be a(n un)known sex offender (until you look into them). Do you want somebody on "the list" to moderate your forum, and thereby, be guilty by association, especially if they use the...

    Do you do crypto?

    In case anyone is wondering, my sell is marked around $3320 and my buy is $3120ish. Since I'm trading decentralized, I can't put in the typical sell order/stop loss/etc., it has to be manually tracked. I'm only working with pricing alerts to tell me when they hit a number to alert me to take...

    Do you do crypto?

    As the governments make more of it and lessen the value... But, I do keep $10,000 and the equivalent of such in Yen (1,000,000 Yen) in my SHTF bag. However, there's far more: That I have physical access to. My favorite piece is a Scottsdale machined 100 oz silver bar. It's literally a brick...

    Have you ever started over because you lost a backup to your forum?

    Yes, but I'm sure everyone has heard my most recent story of RS after launch. Plesk decided to be cute and upgrade MySQL, and in the process, convert my InnoDB databases to MySQL8, which it failed at doing, corrupting them beyond being scattered bits and bytes with pieces of human readable text...

    How big?

    Why don't you make some sort of terms for (moving forward) that any content submitted to the group gives your board a non-exclusive, permanent, irrevocable, unlimited license to use, publish, or re-publish your their submitted there under a "bot" name (or their real name as it's a public group)...

    Have you ever used more than one hosting service at a time?

    You probably won't need a solution like that unless you have thousands of active users and millions of posts (including conversations). You should just scale up vCPU/RAM as needed. And, when you reach that breaking milestone, or when the prices just make sense, look into multiple instances...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    Having spent days on a range, at one point, 5 days a week for a month straight from 0600 to 1800 for a competition, I know quite a bit about rifles and pistols, specifically, the M16A2 ("AR-15") rifle and M9 ("Beretta 92FS") pistol. Additionally, I was an instructor for 10 or so months, having...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    I hope the sale goes through. A good starting point would be $4000, and work down to $2500 if necessary. I haven't investigated who they are and what their potential revenue would be, just going based on arbitrary standard figures that I use for unknown buyers (if the domain cost me $250 or...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    Nice brandable. Reminds me of Threadloom, which I disliked from the beginning, and glad they shut down. They had horrible policies, which some may disagree with me on. I wouldn't have wanted to build out one of my forums using their services because I know they would've turned me off: 2AForum...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    Added 5 more last night, but these are the only two relevant to this niche/community. :-P

    Members Warn You About Your Staff

    Seriously evaluate their claims. A staff member can make a community just as much as they break it.

    How big?

    I'd like to have at least 1 or 2 Big Boards (1M+ threads). That said, I don't mind having slow, and smaller, communities of 10000 threads or less. If in the right niche, and the content is good, it will consistently bring in good traffic that'll convert. The first forum I focused on for 2-3...

    A buy-out with a non-compete.

    Blogging Collective Merges with Another Admin Forum

    Some of these just boggle my mind. They create a niche in X and merge with a niche in another galaxy. It doesn't make sense whatsoever. This makes sense since it's in the same niche, relatively speaking, just a broader focus.

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    ROFLMAO was mid-4-figures. 🤫 I'm assuming if I want to drop the -MAO, eventually, it'll be 5, maybe even 6-figures. The original, RS, was recorded at $1,211, but it was making $20-50/mo with a high month of $94 with parking. So, it made its money back before I shifted to that brand. It's since...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    That can be a good thing. I hoarded LLLL (Letter, Letter...) and NNNNN (Number, Number...) and let them go too soon, for $50-125/ea. (which was still a 100% ROI). In the Chinese market rush for these, they were going for 4 figures each, even more, if there were no 0s or 4s, and double+ 8s in...

    How many domains do you have pointing at your forum?

    I've had several (25+, maybe 50 as I did a "select all" edit) that had high traffic pointing to my (first/older) forum at one point, taking them out of parking to do so. For example, there might be been 25 domains and they were receiving 150 visits per month on average. That is a 3000 per month...

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    It's a bit different when you get domains for $12-150 every/other/day and also make $250-750 quick flips every/other/week with the occasional 4-figure sale off of a $100ish name. I'm not just hoarding domains. 😅

    How many/what domains do you currently own?

    ⬆️ as a domain name investor, exceedingly more than that, and I seem to acquire a new domain or two every few days on top of it. A short redacted list of my *forum keyword portfolio: Unmannedforum.com - Have to put up ASAP for all these drone sightings... but the main focus is going to be on...

    F*** You!

    As it should, just like police officers have discretion. There will be a protocol to follow, but moderators will still have the discretion to apply what they feel is necessary. But, there needs to be some standard to fall back on and point to so the the moderator isn't to blame.
