There used to be a mainstream webmaster board which had a lot of forum owners post g on it. They had a pretty cool system in place to help jump start new forums. They had a pool of webmasters whom would post to each others forums and once you reached X amount of posts on one of the approved new forums, you could then get your forum approved.
The only problem was that system only worked for general type stuff that wasn't too niche, because the niche forums never did well due to it often being obvious the posters didn't understand the niche. I can't remember the site, but it used to be a fairly popular webmaster forum. Not like gfy or dp but active enough.. it's probably around d still and you could likely find it via Google with some creative searching.
