In this day and age, it's almost impossible to grow a forum. I'm not saying it's impossible, it is just really difficult. With the blog formats blowing up and forums already established with cliques...it's going to be a tough road.
I have a mainstream forum and was extremely lucky getting my members. It's a sports forum and the one I had posted on since '97 shut its doors in 2007. I quickly started a new forum with the same format and invited everyone over when they closed their doors. Instant 1,000 members.
Before that I tried to start a forum and paid quite a bit of money outsourcing posters. They ended up posting the most horrible garbage I have ever seen in my entire life! It was straight up crap. Avoid that service at all costs unless you've seen the quality of their work.
