    I like the design also. Fonts are too small for me, but maybe your target group has younger, sharper eyes :).

    Most of reviews you will get on here will mostly be a visit on AFG first page, they won't be bothered looking at all specs you are offering in your site (groups, giveway, streams, etc etc) when I see people saying that your site is "too basic" then they haven't looked at it in deep, this is not a review, not even a point a view.

    Yeah, I see what you mean. Not many people will really want to explore. A lot of the little cool things are only available to users that sign up. Thanks :)

    Hey guys, throwing a question real quick. I checked my site speed and it told me to "Remove query strings from static resources". How would I go about doing this on Xenforo?

    Don't know, but it's true, sometimes AFG is a bit slow

    Just added the ability to customize the user post-bit to a favorite game! This will also work on my Horizontal post bit version!

    I love this site. It comes across very cool and slick. I like that it's easy to navigate and having a forum is a great way to connect with like minded people. My only concern is that it looks overly masculine. Are you just marketing your site to male gamers? If not, I wonder how a female gamer who is just browsing would take to it? But overall, looks like you've done a tremendous job! I hope you manage to sort out your marketing.

    If you don't mind me asking, which aspect(s) look overly masculine? Thanks though for all the positive feedback!

    I really like the site, don't get me wrong, and being masculine certainly is not a problem just an observation. In my opinion, specifically, I think the colour theme Black/Green/Red is very strikingly masculine. Also, on your front page you have Grand Theft Auto/Call of Duty/H1Z1 etc. All of which are most notably played by male gamers. It might be helpful to neutralize your design to appeal to both male and female gamers. I'm not a designer, but I'm sure this could easily be done? I was looking at a study last year that said 52% of gamers are now women. You can see the study here: http://www.theguardian.com/technology/2014/sep/17/women-video-games-iab if this is true, you might not want to alienate or put women off. I hope this makes sense?

    I see what you are saying. Design wise, the colors were selected because they worked best. As for the articles you see in the front, they aren't selected because masculinity so to say, they are selected because they have important info behind them. That being said, the picture correlates with the game, which goes along with the article. I have to choose notable scenes, characters, etc or people won't know what that article is about or be appealed. I don't mean to say I could care less about women gamers, I'm just saying that a lot of the games that come out have main characters who are usually male, and are usually the images people most recognize.

    I'm glad you understand what I was trying to say, and that I don't mean my comments in any negative way just a simple observation. It's a shame that female characterisation in games is still stuck in the 90's. I wish you luck with your site, you have certainly put a lot of thought and effort into it.

    Not a bad site though! Though you can still insert some interesting points like images, videos, etc. which your reader and target market would love to read about it.
