Please give option to opt-out of mobile site

Daemon · Oct 21, 2010, 04:32 AM

I didn't buy a smart phone with a *full* featured web browser
so I would be forced to load the dumbed down version of web sites.

Yes the new mobile site loads fast, but I can no longer
1. collapse the endless list of irrelevant forums on the main forum list which means it actually takes longer to get where I want
2. Jump more than one page at a time within big threads.
3. Edit a post
4. Subscribe to a thread
5. Search within a large thread
... and so on. Those are only the things I found in the first 5 minutes.

Please give the option to opt in our out of the mobile version of the site.

Ian,
Thank you for the constructive feedback. I'm working on the option to opt-out of the new mobile version.

I also added page navigation to the thread page and fixed the search links in the upper right corner for the forums and threads so they are leading to the correct "search forum" and "search thread" pages.
I'll see about adding the edit link to the posts and an ability to subscribe to a thread.
