Is there a mobile friendly version of this forum? It's quite hard to read on a smartphone.

Thanks

Not at present. Of course, sometimes it's not very friendly on a computer either so, there you are.

Will I get banned for boxing!?!?!

Yes, but you have to view it on a 10" tablet or a laptop.

There's a million angry citizens looking down their tubes..at me.

The only time I'm ever reading/posting on forums is when I'm at work, and I do so using a Samsung Galaxy S3 with no problems.

I recommend reading glasses if you can't see the screen.

If you are asking after a mobile friendly forum, then there isn't anyone at the moment. It might work better with tablets though.

To CCP. At least give the EVE forum 'Tapatalk' support. That will help alot on the mobile browsing Blink.

Here is a list of my current EVE / PVP videos:

1: Asteroid Madness

2: Clash of the Empires

3: Suddenly Spaceships fighting in Tama

You're lookin at it.

You will use the hostile stationary version of this forum, and you will LIKE IT.





Since the cessation of their usefulness is imminent, may I appropriate your belongings?

I just zoom in on my pod touch 5.

Apple needs to stop messing around and tell us if there will be an ipod touch 6 or not. I could care less about a bigger screen, just so long as it's faster.

Oh, I perfectly understand, Hal Morsh — a mission like this requires courage, skill, and heroism… qualities you are clearly lacking. Have you forgotten you're one of the bloody immortals!?

I love how the bar just follows you around on the screen now.


Sometimes it'll be right in the middle of the text window while I'm typing a post. Sometimes it will think I actually clicked on it and will choose a random link like Logout or Edit forum profile.


The mobile version of this forum has been a major downgrade with the recent changes. Previously, I could at least click on the notifications dropdown. Now, it is completely unusable. These changes were made with no regard for mobile browsers and has made the experience on a mobile phone significantly worse.

If you go via eve gate drop down is same as it was before you can click any info marked yellow still.

New ones are kinda bad.

Mobile. Yuck. Time and place for things.

Not even once

EVE is becoming shallow and puerile; it will satisfy neither the veteran nor the "WoW" type crowd in the transition.
