First Impressions & Appearance - (Out of 20)
First of all *High Five!* Vbulletin is such a great software! It's is so worth buying and I'm glad you have decided to put your own money into this forum. You've chosen a really nice skin to, however the skin is too big for my browser (FF) it goes of the page just a bit which means I have to use the slider to click some buttons on your forum. It's only a minor set-back but it need fixing
😉
Im really liking your banner. It matches your forum concept and matches the forums colours. You've got yourself some really nifty side bar tools like the Twitter and Facebook bit, It makes it easy for me and your members to find things quick and get the latest news.
I think it is an ad you have placed just bellow then nav-bar. If it is then it is in an emmense spot, it is hardly noticeable. Good for user... but not so good for your profit?

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
Your layout is good. Exept from the problem with some things going off the page everything seems to be in good order. Your different forums are in the right catagories and everything is spellt correctly.
Banner, skin all blends together to make a very attractive looking website. Very colourfull to!

These stats all seem okay for the amount of time you have been open. I know itis very very hard to get a gaming site/ forum to be known to lots of people and you have done a good job! It would be nice for more of your members to be active and posting but I suppose thats the way some members roll
😛
I've just read this and im pleased: Most users ever online was 20, Yesterday at 10:19 PM. Know I know that your forum is getting better and better everyday and your forum is getting more activity then EVER before
🙂 Most of the forums I visit have had there most users online in about 2007 lol.

Beta keys and shit
Has anyone noticed developers love to be dicks and post all of the betas around the same time!?!? All Points Bulletin, FF14, Lego Universe, the list goes on. Did anyone get into these betas?
That was posted yesterday. In my opinion maybe a bit unprofessional using words like dick, to be honest I think Sh*t needs to be used sometimes but dick is a bit childish. Other than that the staff are doing a good job.
From what I can see you have 6 admins and 1 mod. For a forum of your size you dont need 6 mods :O. 2 would be enough tbh. For you size forum I would normally have 2 admins and 2 mods, maybe even 2 admins and 1 mod.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism - (Out of 20)
Some of the posts by staff and admins are unprofessional. Often comments are like "wut" and "ok", to make your forum more professional try making posts more lengthy and polite.
The posts in the 'The Site' forum are very good and have good grammer and a professional touch to them
😀 Why can't all of your posts be like that?
