Hey jesta@jesta,

How are you planning to moderate the creation of new forums? For example, right now there are two introduce-yourself forums on chainBB:

I feel like this is just creating unnecessary noise. Do you've yet a "Forum's creation rules" document? I think that's going to be needed. In my opinion, a forum should be open for creation if:

  • There's no equal forum yet;

No need to have duplicate forums. I do agree that there are instances where a duplicate could be needed, for example, if the forum owner of the first forum became inactive (reddit does this with subreddits). Hence my #2 suggestion:

  • If a forum owner has been inactive for X weeks/months, then the forum is available for the taking; Fees apply.

What constitutes being inactive here? I would say if one doesn't make any comments and/or posts for the X week/months, then one is inactive in the steem community.

What do you think? I'm sorry if you've already provided info regarding this. I searched but couldn't find anything. If you did, please link me!
