> I sometimes wonder if the move away from message boards and towards larger communities like Reddit and Twitter would have allowed for this kind of clubhouse atmosphere. I occasionally use Reddit as my forum / message board for whatever project I'm working on. Just set up your own sub. Works pretty well. Reddit can be as small of a community as you want it to be, if you control the sub. Granted, you're operating within Reddit's control, so something could go wrong there. However along with such tradeoffs there are aspects in your favor as well (such as the tens of millions of active Reddit users, far lower friction adoption of your community board, not having to manage forum software, and so on).
