Hey there, may I please have a review for http://cooljdude.com/forums
Thanks! -🙂-
By the way, 2 things.
1. Could you please not review the homepage? (Of cooljdude.com/) I know it's not very user friendly, and it's in the process of being redesigned right now.
2. A test account will most likely be needed for you to complete the review, and I do have one available for you. ~smile~ I don't really want everyone to have access to the test account, so whoever is reviewing my site can PM me or I can PM you.

Thanks! ~cheesey_grin~

First Impressions - (Out of 20)
The first thing I thought was "New forum..." You need a better banner and a few of the forums are a little screwed up, but ill get to that soon. I like the colors and all of that good stuff but the forum needs some work. Perhaps you could get a little better banner and follow what im about to say in the next secion.

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
Ok.. I have a lot of suggestions for you about the layout. Ok, here we go. I see you have a market or store on your site. Thats great and all, but it doesn't need its own category. The same goes for the arcade. Merge those into one and let them each have their own forum, not category. Next, you don't need a category for the Users to say Hi and Bye in. Try to make those threads in the general discussion. That just takes up more space on your board.
Enough of being a mean reviewer, lets look at the good stuff ~razz~ . I do like the store and the ability to let members have control of their own forum, but I would add an option to extend the personal forum time when it gets low.

Forum Statistics - (Out of 20)
You curently have over 17k posts and only 101 members. Thats a good number for a forum at your stage. If I knew what the launch date was then I could tell you if you had some gret or awesome numbers. ~razz~ Good job at the moment tho!

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
The moderation of your forum is great, and I see no problem with at the moment.. Keep up the good work.

Spelling and Grammar - (Out of 20)
This is probably the only board that I saw YET that has some spelling mistakes. There are a few in the board discriptions and a few in your posts. Just remember to keep to the good grammar and engilsh.

There are a few in the board discription
Out of curiosity, which ones did you see? I try to keep my board descriptions looking good.

Also, I notice my topic now says awaiting cash. I'll gladly pay, but who do I donate the cash to?
 
A Team Leader will deduct it from you, or you may donate it to me.

I was looking around the Discussion area. They sort of did not match up to each other. I guess I worded it wrong as I was typing fast. Please excuse my mistake. ~redface~
 
I'll go ahead and donate. ~smile~ And that's fine, thanks for the review. I do need to get that stinking banner changed. I'll prepare a new one this weekend.
