The zooming is really annoying. Making a mobile version is so ridiculously easy. There's no reason NOT to do it.

The zoom should no longer occur when browsing the forums in mobile (we patched that out just now). The emphasis in your post seems to apply to information provided for phase 2 and the answer in here. It didn't happen all at once, but we're working our way there.


Unfortunately the zoom is still happening for me. I'm on my Galaxy right now and not only is it zooming, it's zoomed in so far i can hardly use this reply box. I'm forced to zoom way out which then renders the box so small i can't read what I'm typing. There is no happy medium here. Very awkward. In order to read what I'm typing in the text box i have to zoom back in and the box does not resize accordingly, it makes me have to scroll the screen sideways as I type. If this is your idea of mobile friendly...

Same for me on Sony Experia...

Quoted from Doc Fury: "Concerned citizens: Doc seldom plays EVE on the weekends during spring and summer, so you will always be on your own for a couple days a week. Doc spends that time collecting kittens for the on-going sacrifices, engaging in reckless outdoor activities, and speaking in the 3rd person."

This is the second time in a couple years that CCP "revamped" their forums. It is also the second time in those same years that the release has been a buggy, untested mess with feature regression. Does CCP even lift?

A couple of things:

* The 'Eve Universe' drop down doesn't scroll with the page, so I can't see the bottom of it without manually zooming out.

* Zooming in Firefox is broken. The text doesn't wrap at all.
