Martin and Andrew, is there any way we can get a mobile formatted version of this site? There are only 2 browsers that render this site correctly the stock android browser and Dolphin, which apparently after the update doesn't work. I used dolphin specifically for this site now the text renders to small, or you have to scroll side to side to read posts, text on website is nuts. Like post size font is 33, names and headers and stuff are size 4. This is a a problem with multiple browsers I have tried. Please look into this guys.

Also: I have an iPhone so with Safari every second or third time I'm browsing ultimateknicks something hijacks the page and I get diverted to another spammy website for candy crush like games. Then the App Store pops up a couple seconds later. It's literally impossible to browse when this is happening (every couple days).

ha I thought I was the only one! Its the ads I think.

I figured out how to get around it. You click on a post and immediately click 'reply to topic' and you won't get the pop up spam so you can read the posts.

It gets frustrating. Then all of a sudden everything is fine. Weird

Martin and Andrew have pretty much dis associated themselves from their own site, they hardly ever post, unless it's policing someone, and upgrades come once in a great blue moon.

I have been longing for a mobile mode of this site long time ago.

By the way, should there be avatar of every user?

yea i don't care for the mobile site. Would be cool but not a necessity. The pop up spam with Safari is annoying. Maybe it can be fixed. If not and it helps pay the bills then we can work around it by doing what I said

That's sad.

But what if after mobile version is launched, more people will come?

I have been using a browsers specific to loading this site correctly for years, going so far as to pay for them for the sole purpose of using this site correctly. Sinking money? I know it costs money to keep this site up. Which is why before the ads came it was thrown around that the people who posted here could donate. I don't think it is too much to ask for a mobile site. If it is a dead board and they have lost the drive to keep it up, maybe they can sell it so people who care about it can keep it going.

And I'll be honest and just throw this out there, maybe the reason only 10-20 people post here is due to the quality, or lack thereof, of a majority of posters on this site. Sometimes people want to actually talk basketball and not get flamed, trolled, or otherwise have to argue their points as opposed to discussing them.

Absolutely, no doubt. The endless going around in circles can drain some instead of just stating your case and respecting others opinions. Especially when most of it is personal and not basketball related. Example: The need for some to constantly rub it in your face in a 'I Told you so" manner when they know you were a big fan of Shumpert even though he is only 25 and his career is far from over. People who contribute nothing to the forum and only log on just to get under the skin of certain posters etc. It gets old.

As for the Mobile version I think it would be great if they find the time for it one day. They have busy lives I'm sure. Wouldn't want to see this site sold ever. Careful what you wish for kinda thing.

and I'm coming for you in Eny's league Joe!

Lol! I thought I may be the only one too cause nobody else ever mentioned it!

I also know the "reply to" trick but I'm not fast enough a lot of the time. Maybe I have stubby fingers who the heck knows. It's weird though it will happen incessantly then just stop for a couple days. Anyway good to know its not just me. My kids are always downloading games and **** onto my phone I thought I may have some sort of iphone related malware or something.
