How do you run your community?

[Izaya]

For your forum, how do you run it? What's the atmosphere like?
I run my forum simply as a community....While I am the 'leader', I also more or less view myself equal to my users and I don't really want to be viewed as higher. I don't expect people to respect me because I am owner...I'd rather you flat out hate me and let it be known then just like me because of a silly title. Our community is ran mostly by a united group decision where we discuss things as a community and I will usually go with the majority. However, I also make sure to work with the minority to make sure I can get them on the same page.

Our community is more democratic than anything.
HBU?

I will always my run forums as follows. The major decisions will by the administration team and will be will over seen by myself. I am the leader of the forum but I do listen to the suggestions of the members because I want to improve my website.

Indeed you cannot please everyone but you can make an effort to come up with mutual agreements that benefit everyone as much as possible.

Minimal rules, staff interaction, and somewhat of a democracy.
