Would help a lot. Iwanna make threads when I'm at school and the full site takes soooooo long on the droid/iphone...


Anyone agree with me?

First can the reply box be made a reasonable size? One line of text is a pain in the ass to type into

To start off with:

The mobile site is great. I love the home page layout, I love the forum/thread layout, searchbar is great, everything works well.

Things that I think need some improvement, and would love to see done for NS mobile 2.0:

The "delete all threads" option seriously needs to be moved, if not removed completely. I have never had or wanted to use it, and the only time I have has been by accident on mobile, and it really fucks up my threads for about 2 weeks.

I would love to see a create thread button. Many a time I have had an awesome idea for a thread on mobile, and cannot remember it when I get to a computer.

Quoting reliability needs to be looked at. I'm not sure if it is just me, but a lot of the time when I try to quote and post, my browser will not post the comment or go to the next page (on my iPod touch, also happens on iPad). Usually happens in bursts, like I can't quote people for a day or so, but then I will be good for a while.

But really, I love mobile NS, use it a lot, and just want to see it improve.





Also, having media accessible from mobile NS would be great. Pictures have always been something I wish I could access, and with the revamping of the video system, perhaps mobile videos? Just a thought, that might be a lot of work.

Sorry everyone, I promise this is on our TODO list, we've just got a few big items to tackle first.

It will get done some time this summer.

You can't quote posts with spaces (when the hit enter and skip a line) and it is quite a nuisance. Also create thread button would be awesome

something else i've noticed, could we get an enter (return) button on mobile? for example i had a big sale thread and i wanted to make a list of things that had been sold and things that hadn't been sold, but theres no enter button so it just turned out to be a huge mass of text that I'm sure no one read.
