When you get there, the top is pretty blank. Maybe put the logo on the left and a banner ad or something on the right. It kinda looks unfinished in that regard.

After that, I have to scroll WAY down to get to any real content, ie the forums.

There are notices, then a chat box, then the welcome message. If you have to scroll that far down every time, it becomes a lot of work to navigate and browse the forum.

Decreasing vertical space is always something I find personally important, however many people might disagree with that.

We have decided to remove the notices due to the fact we had no real use for them...

Thanks for bringing this up
