Mainly because of Reddit. Besides that, all the forum software that is out there does not have an easy way to deal with spam and does not have a good way of integrating a common login.
If forum software creators would get together and share all there data between each other and allow trusted users to automatically register on partner accounts the platform might proliferate. There are only so many manual forum registrations real humans can do. If there was a common hub of spam account notification that would fix the problem I think. Unfortunately we Xenforo users are locked to a certain way of finding spam - and that means nobody ever gets through. Most forums are marked as spam on email confirmations. There needs to be a way that users for forum software do not have to go through the registration process and that means they should try to attach to places like facebook and other social media so that they can go through there vetting process.
Food for thought.
