    Confusing layout, too many subforums, theme is too dark.

    A bunch of those sections need to be combined, and organized so the important sections are at the top of the page.

    The theme is nice for your niche, but you have a confusing layout and way too many forums, especially overlapping forums. You also have an extra usergroup legend at the bottom of your forum which is not needed.

    At the moment there is only one Reviewer, wouldn't it be your place to Pm me?

    Either way, it's just a test account, can't you post it here? Since you can easily delete the account afterwards.

    I see you changed your layout.

    First Impression: Heavy Metal..... Huh?? Ewwy... No offense..

    Forum Content

    Quantity of Forums: Again... as a guest I can't see anything, I wouldn't join, it makes me want to go to another site. I logged into the Test account anyways, I say you have TOO many forums. It looks very disorganized too. You have about three sections in your forums that talk about the same thing, computers, then you have other sections that also talk about the same thing... it just confuses me, you have to make it pleasant for your users dude.

    Content: I really suggest making your threads and forums available for public, either way you won't get many members. Most of the forum is empty. I was extremely astonished with how the 'head' administrator types... kind of horrific, no offense really, but I'd think that an administrator's grammar should be good or...well not like what I saw, I mean if it was a mistake, I mean... just...yeah.. proof read before posting http://i237.photobucket.com/albums/ff24/sexy_goldy_rican/proofread.png.

    Also, Why Do You Feel The Need To Capitalize Every Word? It's unprofessional, some of your mods type better.

    Your forums are not populated nor do they contain helpful posts... Raise the quality on your posts, perhaps?
    Forum Look
    Favicon: vB favicon... It's a gaming site, no? Have something with more style.

    On, off Icons: They are boring and also, the mini icons are default, maybe change them?

    Design: Design wise, I have a LOT to say. First off, for me the forum was a pain in my eyes. I showed many of my gamer friends the forum and they immediately said 'WTF'. The default skin you have is horrible, IMO. Looks half done, cheaply made, not even wanting to complete it, left it like that because you were too bored or couldn't be bothered with.

    The picture above shows your welcome section with the notifications, it's VERY blinding, can't read.

    A lot of your icons have white matte or you have the default icons that came with vB, I'd say make some effor and make another ones.

    Please refer to the screenshot below when you read this part. On your forum there is a part that does not diaplay the last posts, it just display a block trying to behave like metal... I find it very annoying and ugly, I don't like it, not good on the eyes.

    To be honest, I prefer the exaltic skin, but that one... looks very cheaply made as well [Not really the skin, the skin is pretty...but the header and the menu].


    Overall Opinion: Your site has nothing new to offer to the industry and it's visually nt pleasant. Makes me want to go to other gaming sites. The forums confuses me, you have WAY too many forums and little or posts on each. I would have thought that if you have yoru links all private is because your community is VERY exclusive and what ever you have in there is worth for one to register, but once you register you really see no quality posting and plus you have a lot going on in yoru niche, you should try and really be that dot of diference. Sorry if I have offended you... but I gotta stay true to my opinions...

    Every forum has potential, but can you mark the diference? Up to you to decide.

    I hope this was of help.

    AK, FMB is doing what she is supposed to be doing - giving an honest review.

    If she told you everything is fine and dandy, you would have no room to improve your site. You asked for a review, so you can't really expect pure praise with no criticism... :confused:

    Then please don't request any further reviews until you are capable of handling honest and legitimate criticism.
