1) Your forum design is nothing to be proud of.
But in the same turn, it's nothing to be ashamed of. Simplicity rules in my book.


2) Here's a tip from the owner of vBulletin:

What are the most common mistakes you see new admins making?

The biggest mistake made by new administrators and long-time administrators alike is trying to create too many forums on a board. Unless a board has an extremely active membership of several thousand people there is almost no point in having the board subdivided into lots and lots of forums. All too often I see boards that give the impression of being totally dead because there are a hundred forums, each receiving only a handful of posts per day. It is far better to have everyone post to just a small number of forums so that everyone can see what everyone else is doing. This mixing of topics and people is the fundamental essence of community. Once you have a million posts and a few thousand unique posting visitors every day, then you can think about adding more forums so that topics don't get lost.

Site is slow. Server sucks.

For these reasons I will be unable to complete this review.
