A title in the top left corner of the webpage would be the first advancement, it makes the webpage look much more aesthetic, and also allows people to return to homepages without having to find buttons or click back a load of times, whilst also indicating where the user actually is. This site looks rookie level at the moment, and a title or company logo can fix that.
Too much blank space, incorporating a currently online section here showing all the users currently online would be optimal, rather than having it in the members section. Also incorporating a Trending Threads subsection within this list allows for even further filtering. Obviously for basic user privacy the currently online won't be seen for people that don't have accounts.
It would also be of benefit to change the reactions, as of now the 100 emoji as a like makes 0 sense, adding an actual thumbs up is ideal, as well as adding a shocked emoji as I believe in some cases that is needed, like with this post. The emojis are also a little cartoonish, making it quite unprofessional, this isn’t a forum for kids, so detailing the emojis or using a different pack would be a nice upgrade.
Examples:
The chat has a good layout but yet again the design doesn’t really make sense, giving the actual chat background a dark colour which matches the forum makes the most sense, also the page should be split between the chat list and actual chat, the majority being the actual chat, the online section should be removed and available to access when you hover over the chat title above; maybe as a view members button.
Filtering is good, however in the sort by section adding a reactions received filtration mechanism would be a good addition. There are also way too many questions in the Looksmaxxing thread rather than the Looksmaxxing Questions thread, this needs to be sorted, as it is a clutter farm right now.
I don't use forums on mobile, so maybe the people who use mobile can speak on the interface and suggest any improvements needed, I will also tag
St.Greypiller as he can maybe provide further insight into improvements needed.
