You're using vBNominate. I give you a 5/5.

No, for realz. I think you have too many forums. For example: there's two forums just from the homepage that have not been posted in over a month. I'm a hypocrite, but you should avoid having forums that do not get at least one post a week UNLESS they're some sort of archive forum and are closed for posting.

Combining forums and using prefixes can help keep your forum activity centralized and when you're ready to expand, assuming you used prefixes, a quick code will do that for you!

Another issue, why is your title "forums"? Not very informative! Your title is arguably the most important SEO factor any web page can have! Make sure it contains keywords relevant to your site and describes what your site is relevantly!

The search box on the right overlaps one of your links making it unclickable and unattractive. I suggest you fix that. Another mod by DBTech, vBNavTabs, allows you to have dual layers of navigation tabs so you can avoid that problem without sacrificing links to content.

Edit your guest message! It shouldn't be default, it should sell your site!

I also suggest having another skin, one that is lighter. It's proven light themes do better than dark themes and users always love having options. If you get a nice looking white theme be sure to make that the default one.

There's a link on the sidebar asking me to apply but when I click it says I'm not logged in. WTF link?!

The white on the forum statistics clashes with your dark theme.

No Google plus or FB like button? It's 2012, you gotta get you one of thems.
