Yes the review he posted first was not fitting to regulation. We want to deliver quality reviews, and that was not a high enough quality.
First Impressions - (Out of 20)
Well I open up your site and it looks fantastic. The logo is brilliant, the only suggestion I would have for improving is that you could put capital letters on the and island. As for the index page, the style is really nice and I am a big fan of the way you modify skins, as per normal the skin looks great on your site! Also the favicon is pretty cool and gives the site a laid back impression which is what I'm pretty sure you want.

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
The layout is pretty much flawless, I can't find anything bad to say about forums being in wrong orders or anything so you get full marks, congrats on your good organisation 🙂

Forum Statistics - (Out of 20)
Well the forum has a lot of posts, 34000 or so is an exceptional amount, especially for the amount of members you have. What is even more impressive is that you have only been open for a year, personally I don't think just under 100 posts sounds great, but to maintain that over a year is impressive and something I couldn't do. However, I was slightly unimpressed at the number of members who are currently online; member wise it's just 2 in 1 hour. I do understand though this may be due to the fact your community is largely American/ different timezones, but I do feel that is quite disappointing for a forum of your size. Saying this I don't think you can do much about it except keep promoting, after all you do run some competitions from time to time so I don't feel I should suggest a competition. Overall, very good work!

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
Well with your forum this is pretty confusing because it's quite hard to tell... but the people I'm pretty sure are admins/global mods are active and do their job well, also you have the right amount of staff and overall staff seems like another very good area of your site. 🙂

Spelling and Grammar - (Out of 20)
I had a quick look around and the spelling is fine and in that department I have no criticisms. However your members, and even the staff (including you) don't seem to use capital letters at the beginning of sentences enough,. That's the only real improvement I can suggest, other then that well done.

Total Score 91/100
Final Remarks:
Overall a very good site with a friendly laid back community, I can't really majorly fault your site. It's extremely appealing.
What was most liked about the website/forums:
The skin is pretty much perfect, can't see why anyone would dislike it (not saying they do) and also the banner is incredibly appealing.
What was disliked most about the website/forums:
The lack of capital letters, not a big issue but I have to pick something out.
How could I get you (The Reviewer) to join my website?
Well I don't really usually have an interest in general discussion forums but there is nothing more you could do to get me to join really. The first impressions are outstanding and I would be very tempted to give the site a join as a guest with a ''this place seems cool, why not?'' attitude.
