Critique Please - swtorjunkies.com

Ok, I know there is alot of work to do. Mostly of a tweaking nature.

The main site is here - swtorjunkies.com

A direct link to the forum is here - swtorjunkies.com/forums

Most, if not all of the vBseo functions have been implemented.

Please note that I have also filed for an LLC and that site TOS and other legal matters will be directly linked to that site from this site (I'm just trying to do one thing at a time - ugh.) Also note that the right advert banner is just a place holder. I'll probably put self-advertising banners in there or member links, or adsense. 1 thing at a time though (again ).

I hope you enjoy what I've done with the site so far and I hope if you are a Star Wars fan you join!

Now lay it on me!

Question: I'm using wordpress as the front page right now. Should I change that to something like vBadvanced?

No, Wordpress have a very nice SEO I would you to keep it and don't convert to vBA

Ok, thanks for the tip.

The problem is, I haven't found a suitable way to bridge the two. I want to make the forums active and serperating comments seems like a bad way to go about doing this.

Maybe I see in vB.org Mod to integrate Wordpress with vB

I'm still working on integrating the suggestions and I'll update when complete. I've been super busy. :(

Not a problem Ryan you can reply in your own thread in any time

Hey folks, I was wondering if I could get a new critique. I made some recent updates and did a huge revamp of the front end. I was frustrated with how little of the wordpress viewers were taking advantage of the forums, so I removed it (not deleted) and am using vB advanced as my front end now.

That's will not make any different with our critique
