    I also don't post much if at all as of late and it isn't because of forum politics or any of that jazz. One factor is maybe I feel I might of said the same thing over and over to the point of beating the dead horse. The biggest reason I feel less connected with the going ons of this forum is mainly the dreaded Tapatalk support removal. Due to my typical style of interacting with forums in general which is 90 percent in a mobile capacity. And no the mobile version of this forum isn't cutting it in my opinion. Maybe one day this may change and I bet there are a lot of folks like myself out there with a similar mind set.

    I too don't care for the mobile version, that's why I use the full site, in my phone. I will say this much, Tapatalk was great for us phone guys. It was much faster, could post pictures with ease, as well in PM's. And used less power to do so. But I'm comfortable with the full site, now

    Yep, What Mike Said. Sure it would be nice, but the full site version is also what I use on my phone. Its easier to deal with than the mobile version.

    I don't know if you guys have tried the 'responsive' style. It's supposed to be more mobile friendly and adjust between desktop and mobile device. You switch it at the bottom left of the page:

    We'll have to update our software sometime in the near future and it may be better for mobile devices, but I am thinking it'll be after the new year.
    We can think again about tapatalk too, but as I've posted before their terrible record with security made it a lot of maintenance and I could no longer afford to do it nor do I know anyone else who would do it for free. But things change so nothing is permanent.

    In that mode if you click on Quick Links it takes you to paid subscriptions because tbe buttons are on top of each other. This was the first issue i found with it and gave it up.

    I'm cool with the way things are, now. But it sucjs that I can't send pics in a PM, Like I could with Tapatalk. I guess there are ways, just over my mental capacity.

    Ah, right. I think I can trim that navigation to fewer items, but I am not sure if I can look into in the next two weeks. But if you remind me in say mid December I may be able to improve it.

    The mobile version is almost OK, but there are 3 things it lacks that prevent me from using it: "Thanks" and "Like" buttons at the bottom of each post, and "Mark Forums Read" Button in the header of the page. Besides the "New Posts" button in the header sometimes there, and sometimes not (beats me how and why).
    So IMHO these very small additions can make the mobile version actually pretty usable.

    I've always used the full site on my phone. Only rarely use a computer.
    In the mobile site, I have never really tried it. Can't get passed the look. It's like coming home to find all the furniture and pictures gone, the "feel" is all wrong.
    Don't like it at all.
    Perfectly fine with how it is but would like to PM pics.
