    So, do banner randomly show up (rotation) of each site where the code is implemented?

    Getting Sued

    I agree. Really, that's basic "terms of use" creation etiquette to do that. A lot of people don't because they don't think anything will happen to them. I always choose the county courthouse of the county I live in.

    Profanity in usernames

    I agree. I don't find it to be humorous, and I feel like it's only going to result in drama if I allow it to remain.

    Female Staff Members

    I've had good staff from both genders and bad staff from both genders. I do feel, though, that sometimes female staff members spend more time creating new topics, making replies, and being generally more active than many male staff members. Women just seem more personable on forums, at times.

    And you can always put it in your terms as a condition if they join.

    Allowing some profanity?

    I don't like profanity, myself. I try hard not to in real life, too. Older folks don't like it. Kids don't need to learn it. It makes a person sound ugly. But I see it more on forums and social media than I see it anywhere else.

    Is your forum a hobby or a business?

    Side income can help pay your bills, offer more unique features, run contests, or even give you some extra spending money. There is no harm in trying to make extra money, especially these days. Nothing wrong with that.

    Ashley Here

    Welcome. Is this a common name you have on forums? If so, I've definitely seen it around.

    Allowing some profanity?

    Do you allow some profanity on your forum? What profanity is allowed? What profanity is not allowed?

    Getting Sued

    Have you ever been threatened by another person of getting sued over your forum or blog? If yes, what did you do that they felt made you liable of their lawsuit threats? Here's another: Have any of you actually been sued or attempted to get sued or sued someone yourself due to your forum or...

    Female Staff Members

    Do females make better staff members on a forum? Not to be offensive by this question but many females have a maternal instinct. With that being said, in a position of power over a community, they can identify how to nurturer members but also give discipline when needed. I know gender is a hot...

    Profanity in usernames

    How do you feel about profanity being used in usernames? For example, if someone joined your forum with curse words as part of their name such as "Post ****" or something like that. The name isn't exactly meant to be profane but could be seen profane by others. They could use one that is...

    Account Deletion Demand

    How do respond to forum members who request you delete their account? I've seen an instance where a staff member (on a forum that didn't belong to me) quit the team and demanded the forum owner delete their account. They cited various European data protection acts and laws and said not deleting...

    Is it sad that I immediately just tried to tick the square? LOL

    No Links Allowed on Big Boards

    I think some links/banners can be obnoxious and I feel the forum is pretty right in prohibiting those but a simple signature link? I don't see anything wrong with it. But a forum owner does have the right to decide.

    Exchange Wanted with General Forum

    I have 50 now. How about we just try to match. I don't want to try to do 50 a week as some days, I won't be available. Just post whatever you want past 50 and then I'll match that when I come back on after the weekend. Fri-Sun I'll be without internet connection for a family trip in the forest.

    Ban = Enemy for Life

    I agree with that. True friends don't back stab.

    Comment Exchanges

    I think a lot of bloggers are closing comments because of spam. If your niche doesn't need commentor links, you can take that field out using a plugin. I've done it on my hiking blog and it has reduced spam by more than 80% alone. Also disabled pings and trackbacks on WordPress, those are...

    How do you make a community feel like home to your audience?

    Well, if it's the original owner of it, he's banned from here to for threatening me via-PM.

    People not joining forums

    Social logins might be a good thing to enable on forums. It makes it easier for folks to join and it's common on big social platforms and apps. But yeah, everyone asks for an email.
