trademe messageboard is shutting down

One of the things that is really hard to get right, is the moderation. And having hosted a large group forum I do not underestimate just how difficult that can be. But, if you truly want a lively active community, the moderation has to be fairly light. You need to let people be themselves, warts and all, but make sure not too much blood is spilled.
I hope it goes well for you, because we refugees sure need a safe place to gather. And a host with fortitude! ?

oh auntie hunni...awwwwwwwwwww.

Trouble was last year, that although we had lots of members, not many were posting. If only we could get more people to post.
