Category: Gaming....yup another gaming site.

Description: gaming and clan recruitment community.

Notes: we migrated over to xenforo around a year ago, but prior to that we lost many members either due to life or got bored with the site when on vb3.

I love xenforo...but yes it does have its limitations with the core product. We have around 60plugins of which about only 50 are enabled of which only 2 have branding along with over 200 usergroups along with heavy amount of css and we still manage to pull 4-5sec load times.

Currently working on a light theme that only veteran members have access, to help squash any bugs. After that would like to submit for review.
Features:

• Custom Ranks/Trophies
  Spoiler: ranks

  
• Font Awesome Icons
• Rank Up notifications based on Quality post
  Spoiler: rank up

  
  utilizing xenforo's built in notice system.
• Siropu shoutbox
• Wordpress style theme switcher - pick your pattern/image for BG. or use your own!
  Spoiler: Bg chooser

  
• Multiple User upgrades purchased with forum "Fbux"...more coming soon
• Live Streams
• Arcade
• Advert FREE!
• Media section to highlight your online achievements or to promote your channel.
• quick access to XBL, PSN, & Steam status pages - gamepad icon on the slide-out tab. If on mobile turn phone to landscape.
  Spoiler: console status

  
• Rotating header and visitor sign-up images on every page re-load.

The theme is based off a heavily tweaked version of XenBase from pixelExit as well. Same theme used here on FP.

In my opinion, the theme is a little too busy, but it is nice to be able to change the background at least. Good luck. 🙂

Thanks for feedback but "too busy" as in the sidebar widgets?

now members & guests can choose a light theme by tapping/clicking on the toggle switch in the far right of the nav-bar.

great support from the guys at pixel exit (Team behind XenBase) to achieve this.
