For small forums where the admin wants to make it large, I'm sure the main challenge is getting activity.
You probably won't get many fights/trolls on small forums. It's generally not so much of an issue on larger forums (though that depends I guess). Spammers are usually more of an annoyance than anything else.
For this forum, where I couldn't care less about activity, I generally don't manage it.
..and yep. I run 2 smaller forums that both get a fair amount of site traffic, but most people lurk and don't post. trying to bridge that gap can be frustrating for an admin.
