Additional Notes:Alright, new board! I would advise to not get your board reviewed untill you get some more members and more posts. Like a decent amount of them both. Maybe wait till you get about 50 or 100 members and 500 or 1000 posts...

Anyways. Your forum is nice. But its just starting off. I would suggest getting a much better skin, forum markers, and buttons. The skin is just boring, and believe it or not, darker skins don't draw as well as light skins. Try to change up your layout. You have too many forums for now. Get rid of the GFX, RPG, and something else for now. Save those ideas for later uses.

You have good administration, but you only need 1 for now....You also have way too many mods for a forum with 25 members. You really only need about 1 admin and 2 mods untill you get about 50 or 100 members, then make another mod. Your forum has more mods then my forum has, and my forum is about 10X as big as yours.

Try hosting some contests to get your members something to do.

Thanks for the advice but I can't drop the RPG area even if I wanted to since 3/4 of the members are RPers and some of them came for the RPing just haven't posted yet And if you would have said drop the GFX section 2 days ago I would have but my GF is getting PS7 lol dah I don't know...

As for being reviewded Hector thought I should lol and as for the contests I already started one but no one took part

Thats because you have hardly any members. Its hard to review a forum that just started out on members and post count areas.

Additional Notes: Quite a nice forum design. Although to strike a keynote i would originally recommend looking into another host option as the page load time for this forum was extremely long and lagging which is something which needs to be immediatly rectified or else you could wind up losing alot of members because of it. There are quite a few interesting a niche alterations you have made to your board which can serve as a nice selling point to your customers although perhaps broadening your appeal to something other than Roleplaying would yield a greater success since the forum category is just so dense and already occupied that for one unique feature you offer hundreds other will have already implemented and benefited off.
