You have received some great suggestions so far. One of the forums that I frequent has a "newbie" section, which is not visible to full members or guests (who are not logged in). Whoever registers to the website needs to get a predefined set of "Likes" on their posts. Not every post gets a "like" - only those that contribute to the discussion do (not everyone needs to agree, debates are welcome as long as they are civil). This helps maintain the quality of the forum to an outside viewer and cuts out a large amount of spam. |

The newbie section comes with a limited number of posts per day - so for example, I sign up today, I can post a maximum of 5 posts per day, and this limit goes up as I accumulate "likes".
I'm not sure if this will help if there are no community moderators trying to share a bit of the workload though.
