I run just over 300 forums, for a monthly audience of 275k active users

I can't imagine one person running over 300 forums with 275,000 active users. That gives you an average of eight minutes a week to tend to the needs of each one.

I used to run a single forum with 50,000 active users, and even putting 20 hours a week into it, I still didn't give it everything it needed.

I know someone currently running a forum with about 20,000 active users and it's a full-time job for him.

I don't understand how it's possible for one person to run 300 forums well.

He is running the infra and maintain the code. Each of those forums have their own moderators. They are basically his customers.

I think what he fears is he has no control on how these individual forums moderate their content and how liable he would be as the hosting admin.
