First Impressions & Appearance - (Out of 20)
I must say that I’m in love here, your site is very well done, and even on a first glance over looks very promising and to me that’s exactly what I’m looking for. I mean let’s face facts your site looks really active, with plenty of members and topics board wide to keep the activity level real high. And I love the theme with all the colour and features around the board, plus the very detailed banner up the top. Overall a massive job on this site, and from my impressions a very talented job.

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
As I said before wonderful layout with loads of colour, it’s nice to see a site full of colour as most sites I review are a little bland with no taste. Also your background is very nicely done, plenty of good effects like the mushrooms. And the nice shiny banner, O the nice shiny banner is really good the shiny effect, did I mention how much I like that shiny effect. But overall nice job with the graphics and layout, as easy to read and navigate plus looks good to the eye.

Statistics and Activity - (Out of 20)
I recon your statistics speak for themselves, with over 600 members and plenty of topics and posts. What more is there to say then you know how to make a forum, and I don’t really need to comment much here, simply put your great stats speak for themselves and I recon most that see statistics and activity like that can pretty much say, yup count me in.

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
Ok let me be up front and honest here, this area of your forum could use some work. So lets get started firstly I cant even tell what colour rank is what, I mean I see some different colours in some areas of the board, but no matter how much I looked I cant tell what colour means what or even who half the staff are. You need to fix this problem and make it clear to everyone, exactly which staff members do what, for example who the mods are or admin or community staff so on.
Also another thing I noticed is some of your staff members are a little lax in there approach to members on the board, I mean like some of the staff on your board have no professional approach to members when dealing with problems or members in general. I’m not saying you and your staff cant act professionally but just you sometimes let your guard down sometimes so to say. Other then that staff on your board to a wonderful job of keeping the place in order and making it fun for everyone to hang out at.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism - (Out of 20)
Checking your board out I spot a few mistakes here and there, nothing a good proof read wouldn’t fix up. Your spelling is a little of in some areas like guides and topic descriptions, and your grammar really needs some work specially when your posting comments and replays around the board. But still you have done a good job, as the only reason I can pick up these mistakes on your board is because I am a writer.
Only other thing I have to say is, you have done a somewhat nice job on your topic descriptions. You have made a good effort and it’s better then most I see, as you have put plenty of detail into your topic descriptions. You do lack a little bit of spice though, try adding some catchy comments or flare to your topic descriptions, and make them say just a little more then what the sections is or does.
