    I have an iPhone 4S. Using the forums on Safari / Chrome / etc apps is an absolute nightmare. o_0 I have to zoom almost all the way in to click any links and read text. By doing that, it becomes impossible to properly read things, tap anything else, use features, etc. It takes much too long to do anything, and considering iPhones below 5 that use iOS7 have tons of bugs and often lag (even with no apps and 6GB+ free space)... :unsure:

    A mobile website is so that everything is fitted to the screen with proper text/font size, clickable buttons, and readability. Tapachat does all of that - except tapachat will not display the customized forum images, colors, or allow the forum features.

    If there is already a mobile option available with Xenforo, I see no reason to keep it disabled. Would make browsing ECC a lot easier for everyone. (Not sure about Xenforo, but generally people can personally choose not to use a host's mobile version.)

    Exactly hence my post I already made. It's not like there is anything wrong it's just what your viewing it on. That's the only why I have to +1 because of that reason X) I already stated that.

    Yes I understand it I already explained so I won't go into a lengthy repost. It seem you just don't like to zoom in and out >.> little things like that is why your suggesting this. As I already said I agree because of other players phone and only because it can easily be implemented X)

    (On the other hand) if it wasn't already offered as an easy fix I would say stop complaining and look it up on your phone if u can farm u can zoom in lol

    Yes, please! I refuse to use tapa talk because of the things I can't do, and I can't open my alerts on my phone, which is what I mainly use to access the forums.

    I agree, Tapatalk is very limited in the things you can do, I hate the app. I prefer viewing it in a browser.

    If this was not an easy fix (because it already exists) I would deem this too trivial to be changed. It is not a serious issue just a preference.

    This is easy to activate, you literally check a box in the Admin CP.

    No, the metal -_-. I coat my phone in it so it looks futuristic. I can't see the screen but it still looks fancy.

    I appreciate your sarcasm, and ability to try to be funny, but I was asking a question. No need for a smart arse comment.

    I support this immensely, it may have some conflicts, but it should help overall.

    I use my iPhone and iPad and I don't have an issue with the normal version of the forums. Maybe for the iPhone, it would be okay, because it is a little difficult to read the forums, but as for the iPad, I don't have an issue. So long as I can toggle in and out of this feature, +1.
