I should probably put this in the FAQ.

I have no interest in making this forum easier to use from a mobile device. All of my experience is that content goes way down when users use mobile devices. Spelling gets worse, responses get shorter and less thought out. We already have a difficult enough time communicating considering how many users have English as a 2nd (or 3rd or 4th) language, and I don't want to make it any worse. I don't think mobile computing provides a benefit to the community as far as this board goes, and so I am not interested in making it any easier for those of you who choose a mobile platform.

I agree 100% with PB here. It would make the already usual misunderstandings virtually intolerable based on the 'auto correct' and short, incomplete replies etc.

Just my $.02 worth :dry:

I didn't say I wanted to ban mobile users, just that I wasn't interested in making it any easier for you :)

100% of my participation has been done from my cell phone. Using the full site is not a problem for me. My iphone has spell check :)

I don't think further discussion of this will be productive. There is little chance of changing my mind. Sorry folks.
