How can we balance participation on a hobby forum without alienating regulars?
#1
I’ve been running a small hobby forum for a few years, and lately I’ve noticed that a handful of regulars seem to be dominating every single discussion thread, which makes newer members hesitant to jump in. I’m worried this creates a kind of invisible barrier to entry, even though the core group is friendly and knowledgeable. Has anyone else dealt with this dynamic and found a way to gently encourage more balanced participation without alienating your most active users?
