He also said
Tagged....
Meaning hes going to do it.
 
Alright, I will remove my review and then you do it then. I was doing you a favor in my eyes.

Jeez.

EDIT: Review has been removed.
 
Well, a thanks would have been nice. But too bad, the review has been deleted. It doesn't make a difference seeing as he really wanted to do the review himself.
 
Sorry to the guy who requested this... you do not have to pay for this review.

I'll have this done tonight.
 
First Impressions - (Out of 20)
The first impressions I get of your site are actually pretty good. The portal page looks reasonably nice & I also like the banner. Maybe you could get a domain though? I think for your site to continue progressing (and for your site to get more activity) a domain would be very useful. Not having a domain IMO means your site doesn’t seem as professional, and the lack of a domain is one criticism I have of your site. If you haven’t got the money (which seems the case) you can always get a domain for free off http://dntemple.com for 2 years. The other criticism I have is that if you look at the portal, you don’t actually know what the site is about? And the name of the forum doesn’t really give a great indication of the forums genre either.

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
Well the portal seems pretty well organised, can‘t say I have any issues with the portal. I don’t in particularly have any issues with your layout, maybe the help & support section could go above the Your tracks section, or it could be moved to the bottom of the forum? Other then this I don’t see any issues so you get a high mark.

Forum Statistics - (Out of 20)
Well you have 6545 posts and 110 members and you have been open since the 19th June last year, which means you have around 1 member every 2 days and around 25 posts per day. To be honest I think these statistics are pretty poor and could do with quite a bit of improving, you could have a lot more posts. I recommend doing things like post exchanges, advertising on promotion sites, submitting your site to directories, topsites and link referral to optimise the chances of success for your site. Also send out a mass mail to your current members to try and get them back as activity currently seems very low as well. If you persist and persist you have a good chance of success and eventually a decent level of activity.

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
You seem to have the right amount of staff in each group. However the moderator bluedog28 is inactive and has been for 2 months so you should demote him. Also in some groups you don’t have any staff, so maybe you should look for staff in those groups. The majority of your staff seem active though, so overall the staff outlook is positive.

Spelling and Grammar - (Out of 20)
Well there are no issues with spelling or grammar on the index page. I also had a quick look at some posts and your spelling and grammar seems fine, no issues. So you get full marks!

Final Remarks:
You have quite a nice site, however activity does seem quite low, so you need to get the site more active and more members should join.

What was most liked about the website/forums:
Well the spelling and grammar was the most positive part of the review, so the good spelling and grammar.

What was disliked most about the website/forums:
The lack of activity was disappointing and the only big downside of the forum.

How could I get you (The Reviewer) to join my website?

I probably wouldn’t join as I play Line Rider, however getting a domain would definitely incline me to join more, also get more activity.

Haha I read the other review too. xD I got two reviews? 😛
Well thanks to both of you. I've tried topsites and such, I can't really get it to work. =/ The site http://dntemple.com/ I've looked at and I can't really understand. Can someone help me understand this please? Also is there a way I can renew it after two years without having to pay?
