Five rules for building a successful online community

I'm not saying that you should follow slavishly in my footsteps, but I assure you that a forum you build (or rebuild) in accordance with my rules will be more popular, easier to manage, and more profitable than one that doesn't follow them. These rules -- and the software that helps enforce them -- are the driving force behind hundreds of popular and profitable discussion-based Web sites.

ugh! thread vs. flat, being approachable,and using 5 rules as a guideline to a successful forum, all this is making my head spin, although I understand I am not grasping the concept of this, I have never been fully introduced to "blogging" on my own,and in the past have only used the computer to look up web sites and e-mail friends,I am soo cro-magnon man when it come to new online communication.
