You have to be very, very rigorous - from the beginning on!
Only if you have rules and follow them, your members will respect you as an administrator. You must not let them do what they want! Be strict, and kick their ass if they are not behaving well.
For some reason everybody wants to be admin of a huge board with hundreds or even thousands of members. But I think the key to a successful board with a nice atmosphere is a small community And after some time, your members will discover, that your board is the best and they will do everything to be a part of it. Later on your board will be a sleeper and then you can be sure, that dozens of people want to join every day. But don't forget to be strict!
I suppose quality is more important than quantity. Take my board for example: Sure, it's not the biggest German Harry Potter Board, but I think it's definitely one of the best. And I will do everything to keep it that way.

I can't change the way a person is. It's not how they act on the forum, it's just how they are.
