Running a forum is a team work, you need staff. How do you determine how many staff do you need? When you start a forum, do you start alone and then gradually hire staff, or do you hire staff and then go on to create the forum?
How Do You Determine Number of Staff

- Start date
I start out with just me, the sole staff member and admin.
Once I get around 10 members, I'll add a moderator.
After that, I don't add a new moderator until it gets too much for me and the other moderator.
And then repeat
On my 50,000-member FB group, we only have two admins and 3 moderators, and the group is extremely active, too!

Sure, it depends on active members and activities you have on your forum but what do you consider the most appropriate staff to member ratio.
