Your Forum Review
First Impressions & Appearance - (Out of 20)
Upon a first glance of you site it only looks semi active, and it looks like your forum could use a few more members. The site looks decent and, seems to follow your theme of a general forum, I do notice you mainly sticking to gaming and socializing, maybe if you’re a general forum you might make a few more topics. A few suggestions could be gardening and home improvement, friends and life, or even things like cooking, life in a city.
(Scored 9/20)
Site Layout - (Out of 20)
Your layout is pretty good, keeping your topics real organized to allow for an easy time finding things around your forum, as I had no trouble locating what I wanted when I looked around. Your theme does look good but I personally recon the orange writing like forum, topic and last post so on, where it says those words, change them from orange to another colour to better suite your current theme. Minus those little things I recon your site looks and feels good, and a huge plus for easy navigation.

Statistics and Activity - (Out of 20)
As I said when I first had a glance on your forum, you site could use more activity, your off to a solid start, but you will need more members to make your forum seem active enough for recruitment drives. You could also use some more posts on the site, one thing loads of people look for is an active forum. You have made a good start, but don’t give up and keep promoting your forum, and before you know it, one great forum is all yours.

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
With only about 40 members you should only really have 1 staff (you/site owner), as having to much staff to early on, its just not needed. While your posts around the forums could use some work, as your grammar is a little lacking. But on a good note your staff do seem to be well behaved, and know how to show respect to the members around the forum. Just work on making your posts a little more professional and tidy up that grammar a little, and you should be sitting pretty good.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism - (Out of 20)
Looking around the site I can spot several spelling and loads of grammar mistakes, you should proof read your site and fix up the spelling and grammar that is scattered all around the forum. While your topic descriptions could really use the breath of life in them, they are dull, boring and just to plain simple. I mean instead of just saying, discuss the world of movies, you could say the following. Come and have a look into the exciting world of movies, discuss the latest release or remember to good old movies from when you were a kid. If you’re looking to talk movies, then grab some popcorn and join us to talk about your favorite movies. As you can see the movie section looks loads more inviting now, with an intro like that I recon more would be convinced to take a look at your movie section.
