I have seen a few forums that have very little moderation.  You need to have some active moderators or forum administrators to help prevent spamming and other problems.  I am always surprised to see "unmanned forums."

You're right, but you always have to be sure you don't employ too many moderators for your forum.

I have also noticed that. Even there were many forum where I was a regular member but after a long gap, I have noticed that they were full of spam. This shouldn't be happened. I always feel very sad about such forums.

Some admins don't really like hiring moderators.
The reason for this is usually because some moderators abuse their power.
I know of a situation where a moderator got mad and deleted every thread in the forum...
