I have never owned a forum so I guess I had not put much thought into it. You make a very good point though. I never really thought of it that way.

I agree with your suggestion that a blog owner should merely initiate and steer debate rather than control it. <strong>Hirsutism</strong> - I couldn't agree more. A forum owner should always be looking to initiate and encourage discussion and interaction.

Hirsutism – I couldn’t agree more. A forum owner should always be looking to initiate and encourage discussion and interaction.

And very truly said that opinion of the members matter more than your own. I think to basic job of the forum owner is to initiate discussions that help and increase the knowledge of the other members and make them actively participate in the discussions. Very nice post.

I thing the job of the blog owner is to initiate debate, steer the members towards a healthy argument and then contribute to the ensuing conversation. And also set the tone yourself, if you are friendly and approachable, your members will follow suit. I agree that your member’s opinions matter more than yours.
