Summers22 Posted Tuesday at 12:04 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:04 PM (edited) Joined this forum a couple months ago and generally use it on mobile. Why isnthe screen covered 3/4 with adds and pop-ups all the time? Then every search shows a pop up box on the bottom of the screen that I have to click and X to go away. What am I doing wrong? I am logged in. Is there some sort of paid version to make all this junk go away? Overall, the general layout of the forum is the worst I have ever used. Add after add after add, wtf....

1004ron Posted Tuesday at 12:47 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 12:47 PM I feel your pain. It's understandable that a forum like this with free membership is reliant on income from ads, but there should be a balance. It is totally impossible to use this forum on a mobile device and expect that there's many like me that have given up trying. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Otherwise I'll stick with the Facebook groups as this is like no other free forum I have ever been a part of...... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai Edge Posted Tuesday at 04:50 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 04:50 PM Facebook will not be the same as this forum. Thankfully, I hate social media and won't go there AND I work from a desktop 🙂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Samurai Edge Posted Wednesday at 03:07 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 03:07 PM I do not use this forum on a mobile. My mobile, a phone, is a phone. Phone screen is too small for such things as this forum. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
STBEAST Posted Thursday at 05:07 AM Report Share Posted Thursday at 05:07 AM Use it on a laptop or desktop and things are just fine. Phone screens are way too small for anything other than texting. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was several years back, but when the forum moved to a new server and with the new layout we lost the paid quirks. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

STBEAST Posted yesterday at 02:36 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 02:36 AM (edited) My Dad is 84 years old, and he is a phone zombie. He constantly complains about how his phone screen is too small to see everything. I told him that's because the screen is so small you are limited to what you can see and explained to him the whole reason apps were developed; so people could replace their lives for their phones. He agreed and we had a good laugh. I showed him how much more screen you get by using a laptop for internet browsing etc. He could not believe the difference. Apps were designed for phones; Nothing better than getting the full benefits by using what works best. Other than this forum, I am not a social media zombie. But I am glad to have this forum to get valuable information, All the pop ups suck, but I got used to them.
