It’s great that you’re offering to provide a replacement forum for TVLF. Can I strongly urge you (or anyone else who may provide a replacement) to look carefully at how to prevent the same situation occurring - maybe a more group/collective approach to running a forum so one person isn’t a targeted, or some kind of buddy/support arrangement perhaps.
Without knowing the full ins and outs of what happened to Rob, it’s hard to know what kind of measures might be appropriate, but the last thing anyone wants is for someone else to become the target of bullies, and another forum to end up closing after a short period. I don’t want to put you or anyone else off launching a new forum, but please look at how to protect yourself.
