All you've got to do is form a word from a word posted by someone earlier, and post a word yourself for the next person to form a word from that, who will post a word themselves, and so on. You can write phrases too, if you like.

Ready? Let's begin!

Alright then, how about a challenge?
Try getting at least 48 words out of the letters 'c, e, r, s, l, n, o, a and b'.

(Little hint: If you get over that, try up to 70, that's how many I could get.)
