I found the dropdown accidentally with an errant thumb placement, but I think the quick quote will easily make this my favorite part of the mobile environment.

Just trying it out this is awesome!




Just wow!

That. Is. awesome.

It is. It is my favorite part if the update.

Would it be overkill to include the OPs handle too, next to "quote"?


Can't get enough of it!
reb,

its funny now but abusing the quote function is going to get that feature yanked.

i hate being a wet blanket, but just look at whats happened on the football board. granted that most of those mouthbreathers dont know their wife from their 1st cousin, but im afraid these idiots would unleash be more problematic than they are worth.

new theory: make quote, bold, italics, etc priledged like the extra emoticons are. Some good ol fashioned economic discrimination would be good.

what about a restricition where you can't quote something already quoted or perhaps something already quoted two or three levels deep. i know there would are often cases you'd like to do that, so it'd be a trade-off.

The quick-quote thing is brand new. Just give people time to get used to it. A little moderation here and there may be necessary for edge cases where people are intentionally abusing it, but I bet it will sort itself out before too long.

Yeah didn't mean to quote all that to be a jerk. It's a great feature and glad its here to stay.

Can we please fix the PM notification?
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
i didn't mean to come off so whiny, sorry guys.

i agree tman that people will get used to it and it for the most part won't be an issue.

but ooshwa makes a good suggestion...i think stopping it at 3 quotes deep would be good. Ive spent some time thinking about it and can't see a situation where the need to do so would come up.

Well, maybe those bickering bickerers over on the R&P board would as they wage holy war against each other. But 3 tiers i think would be good.

Most of us are using the watch list function more often, can we get the sections "topics I started" and "topics I responded to" switched to where "topics I responded to" is at the top of the page? I think most of us respond to threads more often than we start them. Just a convenience thing.

yes, its only on the mobile site (its always been there), but I've put it in the main site revisions I'm currently working on.
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
looking forward to it.

i know you have your plate full, hope those desktop revisions include fixing the PM notification...I've resorted to having to keep a tab open with my inbox and just refreshing randomly.

BTW, know what would be awesome for your Varsity fans? on-demand access to website stats (desktop vs mobile, windows vs mac vs linux, android vs ios vs wm7 breakdowns). Thats just if you ever are, ya know, bored

Love what you're doing. I can't stress enough how clutch it is that the mobile site became legitimately awesome in time for conference realignment and coaching search. On my phone and tablet, 5 of the 6 bookmarks i keep there are links to texags forums

Agreed, but I think that should be so far down the feature list it could safely be forgotten about unless it becomes an issue. I think ooshwa's time is much better spent elsewhere.

(not trying to be argumentative - I definitely get what you're saying)

i dunno if its my phone or what, but recently when i click on a link to a thread it is taking me to another thread in that forum. its almost like the links are shifted down a few lines on the screen.

Josh will need to know what phone and browser you're using in order to help you.

droid charge, using opera mini
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
try the stock browser or dolphin?
ooshwa
How long do you want to ignore this user?
sorry sts7049, but rebelionel is correct. we do not support Opera Mini (or any other browser that uses intermediate rendering/compression services)
sts7049
How long do you want to ignore this user?
ah ok. i never really noticed this before and I've used mini for awhile.
ooshwa
How long do you want to ignore this user?
roger. if it helps, i haven't changed anything on those pages in a good while (many months).

If using opera mini, just refresh more frequently when on texags.

I use Opera Mini exclusively, it's a great little browser and very efficient.

I've noticed something with users who have long usernames causing a black bar under the bar that shows who the poster is.



ooshwa
How long do you want to ignore this user?
Thanks La Fours, I got that fixed.

I've also fixed the styling on the blockquotes in the stories.

Is there any way to get something like grease monkey to work on the iPhone or iPad?

So in mobel I can vote to object but not to approve? Sorry if this has been covered, but the total number of posts scared me away from reading on phone.

iOS apps (by the book) require a $99/yr developer fee and the SDK is only available for the Mac.

Android apps can be written in Java.

either way, much more of a rewrite than retrofitting existing ASP within a new HTML framework, I'd guess.

I also want a texags app for the iPhone and the Amazon Fire.
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
there's not going to be a native app. the mobile web app we are both using is the solution.

The mobile site is great, and I use it all the time. However, I like having apps on my iPhone and Fire - especially when others are scrolling through, or when they might be looking over my shoulder, ect. It's good to hear comments like "oh that's cool, what's it all about?" I've spent quite a lot to have the most cutting edge mobile software, and texags could be a part of that. I was also an early adopter of the iPhone (although a lot of people unfortunately got smartphones shortly thereafter).
reb,
How long do you want to ignore this user?
web apps ARE cutting edge. the mobile texags site IS an app.
