First Impressions & Appearance - (Out of 20)
Im loving your forum name, very very catchy! First impressions are great. I'm glad you chose one of the best softwares of all time and that you decided to go with a nice template. Your banner is good, it blends in with the colours of your forum and looks very professional, your banner gets 10/10 from me!. I also like your slogan 'WHERE GAMING STRIKES'
I find your 'Latest Posts' box on the right of your site very useful. Normally I would have to treck through diferent forum to see the latest replys to some of my threads.. but on yours its a doddle. Although I like the cleaness of your theme I think it may be a tad boring. Blue and white is a very easy and gracious to the eye mix of colours but I think you could give your forum some brightness.

Site Layout - (Out of 20)
There are some unnecessary things on your forum. One of the things is the Tag Cloud, In my opinion there very pointless.. I know there is an option to hide it but still.
I like where you have added your Adbrite advertisement. It isn't to noticeable which is good for the member but obviously not a plus for you. Another thing I like is where you have added your affiliates, good placement. Very nice!
All your forums are in the right forums and it looks like a well organised forum.

Welcome to our newest member, TexasSandman13
Wow, thats a great amount of members! Comparing that to your posts and threads is a diferent story though. *Gets calculator out
* For every member on your forum, each posts about 1 post each? That is not good at all. It's good having lots of members but if they are not posting then they have no use what so ever.
Out of your 526 members, 12 of them had visited the forum on today. that isn't very good either. I'm not sure why so many people are joining your forum and are being inactive.. maybe they are spam bots? Is so, get a anti-spam mod or whatever the latest anti-spam mod is. that should hopefully stop them joining.

Staff Moderation - (Out of 20)
Staff seem to be doing there job well. Both admins are doing great job around the board, both active and both seem to be helping the community out with anything they need! I would reccomend changing the colour of the admins username to red because when you reply to post your name stays the blue colour and no one can tell wether you have posted. Simple but needed.

Spelling/Grammar & Professionalism - (Out of 20)
All grammer is near pefect all I would say is that on your ive add the ' to make I've. I saw this done but blackfalcon, It's pretty minor though. Professionalism is top-notch to, I can see no faults in your language.
Lol, Im really struggling to find an grammer faults exept what was stated above. Keep up your grammer and proffesionalism it will pay off it in the long run.
