Can I get some suggestions?

Hi all

I've been using VBSeo for a few months now and I "think" It's helping as far as search engine rankings go and whatnot

The forum I run is at - Ultimate Online Forums

If any of you have any suggestions, I'd appreciate it very much

Basically the forum is dedicated to multiplayer online games (mmorpg's/mmo's), like Ultima online, lord of the rings, world of warcraft and the like.

Also, I have concerns regarding some text ad's we run to help finance the server, which can be seen at the bottom of the page
Do they impact SEO in a negative way? I remember reading something about that, but I'm not sure.
(The ads have links for cheap flights, loans etc)

Start here:
Your Site Review - Stuff to Do First

Also: You definitely want to get rid of those text ads. Anything not relevant to your site's theme/topic should not be there.

Thanks Joe!
I'll be removing the text ads at the end of the contract.
If anyone's got any other suggestions, let me know
