Hello there  As the subject says how to make the forum better. I was wondering what I can do so that this forum is better than it is. What can I do to get more members on the site? What should I change, add or remove? Any suggestion, or opinions would be very much appreciated. Members and guest are welcome to state their ideas/opinions.. |

Good Evening Miss Ever!
The following is a critique of a few things which may help to improve your website. Please keep in mind that this is the opinion of an outsider who, in know way, is trying to persecute you for your personal choices. These are items which I personally feel would help you improve the website and help you in your RP adventures!
01. CANONS: Please include a complete list of the canon characters in TVD and TO, or at least the main ones. My first impression upon opening the canon list was that this website is going to be romance centered with only Elena and Niklaus... a pairing which I am not too fond of to begin with. This may make other members feel as though they will be trapped or forced to endure a pairing which they do not favor, thus driving them away.
02. CODING: I believe you may have a coding error which results in a pop up add on the left side of the forum. This blocks a large section of text from my view and it is extremely annoying. This could be the result of faulty coding or a plug in... either way it is a persistent issue on Google Chrome.
03. LAYOUT: While the skin you have chosen is sufficient, the overall layout is... odd. It seems as though you through together the home page with the inclusion of Mystic Falls, New Orleans, and Other alone to RP in. My suggestion would be to create one category for Mystic Falls with multiple boards, one category for New Orleans with multiple boards, etcetera. I also had a hard time finding the accepted characters and am still not sure if I located the correct space. My suggestion (assuming you are hiding accepted characters) would be to make the area able to be viewed by members but not accessible; members can see that there is a section for these characters but cannot necessarily read the biographies.
04. TEMPLATES: Overall the website appears thrown together without a universal template to tie it together. I would recommend visiting Caution 2.0, Shine, or another resource website. Having everything set to center with an extremely small width also makes the information hard to read.
