This is new, and could be change.

I don't trust new, and don't like change.

It wanted me to pay $2.99, so I told it to fuck right off.

I don't understand it, why would I need this when I see the forum on my phone the same as I see it on the laptop. Plus I'm with The Cosh $2:99  :o

It's for those of you who like to pay money for shiny things on your shiny gear. It was easy to set up so I don't mind - it was suggested, so why not eh?

Got any more? No? Quit yer yapping and get moppin' the decks lubbers!

Thanks W3bz. I was asked to set it up for a forum I run which is why I use it. Now I have it I'm a convert. Obviously you can browse the forum anyway on a smart phone but tapatalk makes it so much easier. No need to zoom and resize, everything formatted nicely for the mobile. You can get a lite version for free which suffixes your post with a little bit of text saying you are using tapatalk but is otherwise fully functional.

I bet you'd buy it if there was a picture of Dredd on it..!

For some reason my phone always takes me to the WAP version of this site (no pictures!) so it does hold a certain appeal to me.  But is it worth 2.99 just to see the underware (sic) thread?
If in doubt, go for the knob gag.

No, Donny, these men are nihilists, there's nothing to be afraid of.

Marvellous - I tried the TAPATALK read only version last night and it seems to work fine and dandy; a slight delay uploading some of the images but I can see Churchill saying "Oh Yes" on this thread.

Thanks. Off to "underware" thread now.
