review my site please?
Hey all,
I just done a Gaming forum especialy for gamers and would like to what ya all think of it? www.thegamerzzone.net.tc Its not quite finished yet as it hasnt got a banner (In progress of been made) and yes it only has 3 members as i only made it 2 days ago. It will also have a domain name soon. GLC said it was ok to post it here. Thanks to everyone who replies. Last edited by AMD; 03-19-2006 at 06:10 PM. |

That's not how you spell support.
 EDIT: wait, is that how you spell it in the UK?

http://www.wordreference.com/definition/support ...."sopport" is spelled support. The Brits tend to put an extra "e" at the end of some words or transpose the second to last letter with an e...as compared to US spelling. I am not saying either is wrong though. Support has no "e" though.
I was looking through the posts and I don't quite know how to say this without being offensive, so please take this as constructive criticism, but the Grammar and spelling has to get cleaned up. It may be hip to a small segment of your readers to intentionally misspell words, but for most people it is very irritating to try to understand the meaning of something and then to keep comming across intentionally misspelled words which actually slow down how fast you can read a body of text. The word "I" in sentences is always capitalized for example. It is also hard to take seriously sentences with intentionally misspelled words. The attempt at looking cool is very transparent. Excellent content, not intentional typos, is what will make someone look really cool and appear intelligent. If your trying to appeal to a small group of people who intentionally misspell words then you have hit your market, but in the process of doing this you will alienate people who find this irritating. Personally, I would try to appeal to the broadest market of readers. Otherwise, your website looks fine and I wish you the best with it! (Yeah, I already know my Grammar is horrible)

Aah,
Thanks David, Yes im am a Brit so yes there probably is some things that the Grammar and spelling need to get cleaned up. As i said the forum isnt finished so i will re-arrange and look into some of the issues you pointed out. Thanks for your replies. Edit:Just got the banner on. And now it has a domain name.

You are also limiting your market by using a black background. I avoid sites that have black backgrounds (and I know a lot of other people who feel this way too). It is too hard on older eyes.

The new domain DNS probably hasn't hit your ISP yet, Ryan.
