First Impression:
Skin - 7.5/10
Skin is ok by my opinion. But I can tell that it is just the default layout with the colors changed and thats it. But if your members agree to your skin and have no problem with it that is all that counts.
Matching banner/markers? - 8/10
The banner looks nice for that type of forum, also the forum markers tend to match the skin on that also. But I see that the Birthday and Stats markers are the default ones, change those and it would look nice. Other than that good job there.
Matching buttons? - 0/10
I see that you still have the default buttons on your forum there. I advise you to look through IFSkinZone.net and find some matching forum buttons to go with your skin. Odds are that they will have some there for you.
Overall - Does everything look nice? - 6/10
The skin [i]could use alittle more work. Get those buttons to match the skin and those two forum markers and you will be set and good. So goodluck with that part man.
Average: 6.5/10 [/i]
Originality:
Is the theme of your board original? - 9/10
I thought the theme of your board was alright. You had a good amount of activity throughout the whole board it seemed.
Average: 9/10
Navigation:
Could the board easily be navigated? - 10/10
Navigation was great and I had no problem with that.
Were all parts accessable for guests? - 9/10
There were just a couple of forums that were not accessable to guests but I say that is just fine so that it gives them something to sign up for when they do sign up.
Average: 9.5/10
Activity:
How many members does this board have? - 10/10
Great potential for this board with almost 500 members, but your board has been around for a year, I expected it to have that many members.
Besides the admin, are there members with a lots of posts (active) - 10/10
You have alot of members who have more posts then the Admins. Which is good and also the Admins posts are not too low either, so that shows the member activity is good with the Admins still being active as well.
What's the percentage of the admins posts (The lower the better. This indicates other members activity) - 10/10
The Admins were pretty level with the rest of the members. :D Which is good. You have one Elite Member who must really love your board since he has almost 1,500 posts! He might have also been an ex-staff member too, if not that is great to see a member post that much unless if it isn't spam.
Were there any members online when visited? - 4/10
Seeing as you have over 400 members, there were only two members on when I went on. So that is kinda bad. :( But this IS Sunday, so theres an excuse right there. The activity might pick up by midweek or so, I don't really know that though.
Average: 8.5/10
Overall Total Score: 8/10 |

Krazydog - April 3, 2006 04:05 AM (GMT)
Ooh, yay I got mentioned, again! >.>;; Okay... I should stop posting that means lol.
1. I am a SHE!
2. =.= I stay away from the spam board as much as possible... too random for my taste.
????? - April 3, 2006 08:16 PM (GMT)
plus the spam board doesn't count posts.. if all posts were counted, I would estimate you having 2k posts. You got mentioned in both reviews :P
Krazydog - April 3, 2006 09:58 PM (GMT)
x] I feel special. But OMG BLOOD and MUSTANG are so close to 1000 posts! D: You need 1000 to be an Elite member, right? xD
COME ON YOU TWO!
????? - April 3, 2006 10:34 PM (GMT)
Yes.. 1000 before the orange pips change to 31337 (elite) member...
also, I'm thinking if adding a VIP Member chat area for VIPs only :P

Mistral K - April 4, 2006 09:18 PM (GMT)
pretty good.
one thing, ?????, i believe at one point on the review site, you said the you deleted the no posting accounts, but there are still many non-posting accounts here, there are even ones from last year, you said that you deleted all non posting accounts from that did not post for 160 days, and yet i see some accounts that joined shortly after the site was made and have no post, but are still not deleted, why is that?
????? - April 4, 2006 11:04 PM (GMT)
Did i put 160? I meant 260.. and some accounts didn't get deleted somehow in the process
Mistral K - April 4, 2006 11:15 PM (GMT)
oh, ok. cause when i was going through the member list and a couple other things i found about 8 members that joined in March of last year, and yet had not a single post. and 7 in April of last year. i think it's been 260 days since March or April of last year.

i think some people are just here to read spoilers and stuff..
they're not here to discuss things on forums,especially on non-fma related ones
????? - April 14, 2006 12:10 PM (GMT)
Not actually, since they never even visited since they day they joined...
