Not "Officially" Opened Yet. Looking for any feedback you can provide, good or bad.
Our Mission Statement
We think everyone should experience the satisfaction of running a forum. Everyone has a specific subject matter that they are passionate about, however, not everyone has the knowledge and/or funds to start their own site. Or perhaps, you are just unsure about how to gain traffic or how popular your subject matter will be. Some subjects may be to obscure to dedicate a complete forum to. This is where we come in. We are making it possible for members of this site to run their own forum. With having multiple "mini" forums of all types of subjects and with members from all over the world, we expose your subject to all members of this site. So, our members are more apt to post across multiple subject matters, thus gaining members you may have not had otherwise.
So the model is quite simple, we are building a community consisting of a multitude of smaller communities with varying subjects with a central member base, in effect aiming to be the net's largest "general" forum available.
What does it all mean?
It simply means that members can request to "administer" their very own category. When I say administer, I mean that they will have moderator rights restricted to their category only, allowing them to run it the way they want to.

I personally think that this idea is quite ingenious . It is, however, very possible I am off my rocker. I would like to know before going live. Thanks!!
