I run the Matt Sharp forums and even though it's an ugly website we got 2500+ members and 22000+ posts. I followed most of the things you've mentioned in the article. Also there was a lack of a forum for this musician so naturally people came. We don't use any of the board systems you mentioned, we us SMF from simple machines. I had switched from phpBB to SMF because it seems more stable and the search results were extremely accurate which is important when dealing with large forums. Great article.
