    the upper part of the site is white and looks empty, change the color.

    It's a nice forum, but generally forums perform very poorly on CPC programs.

    Also, I have found that it is not the best idea to put ads on a site made for friends.

    They could
    1. Misunderstand, clicking the ads thinking it's your content.
    2. Feel disrespected seeing that you put ads on a site for "friends".
    3. Those who have little internet knowledge can click your ads for fun.

    :)

    Too many affiliate ads on the left, I would keep it to just one and maybe a text ad below it.

    it's so adsense heavy!!
    look, just my opinion, if the visitors don't want to click your ad, they won't even if you have 20 ads in one page. if your visitors are interested in ads, 1 at a noticeable place is enough
