The Role-Playing Forum



Quick Review

    Pros:
  • Consistent silver colors
  • Good, legible font size
  • 16 posts per user is a start, but it needs to be better



    Cons:
  • The name is too generic. Try to come up with something a little more catchy.
  • You also need to find a banner specific to put up.
  • Don't use the generic favicon.
  • The scrolling announcements don't scroll (general FM issue).
  • The apple icons don't seem relevant to your forum.
  • You have 18 members yet you have 7 groups. That is way too many.
  • You have 5 members...WAY too many. For 5 admins, you should have more like 15,000+ members
  • You have way too many mods too. It seems like you just have friends as mods and admins. This will fail unless you change things
  • Several forums don't have any posts
  • I can't tell what the who is online image is
  • Not all forums have a description
  • I can't see the name of the topics in the last posts section


Just about everything I said here is self-explanatory. You need to find a banner, favicon, and forum icons that are relevant to role-playing. You have 10 staff members for 8 regular members and 1 of them is VIP. Does that make any sense? 10 staff for 7 regular users is a horrid ratio. My old forum had 2 admins for 4500 members. THe rest is really self-explanatory.
