I spend a lot of time surfing the forums from work on my iPad and iPhone.

Using this device when I click into the forum I'm able to get into a thread is just fine but to go back is a real pain. I have to use the back button on the browser which means surfing through threads or pages of a thread I have to use it a lot and when I do the sub forum obviously won't be refreshed. The other way is to click the main forum button at the top of the page and click through the sub forums again to get where I want.

The reason for this is that the "download now" button sits over top of the 'forum location line?' Notnsurenwhat els to call it. Makes the location line un clickable. This is only a problem when signed in to the website. Try it and u will know exactly what I mean.

I realize this site doesn't have a version for mobiles so the button will be somewhere but can this be fixed? Either that or I need an upgraded ipad so I can dl and run mwo on here.

I browse this forum on my iphone a lot and I don't have that issue at all.

I would suggest that navigation is a bit simpler when you open a topic in a new tab, so then when you'r done you can close the tab as opposed to going through topic navigation again.

Adding to Redshift's, I do not know exactly how this is showing on a i-Device but if you are using the Back button in a browser, depending on browser, you can either Right Click the Back button or an arrow next to the Back/Forward buttons to skip pages and go straight to the one you want.

Maybe you should give up your over priced Steve Jobs cult devices...

Oh no he did'n!

Oh snap!

I only have the issue when I'm logged in. If I choose just to browse without logging in there is no download now button in the way. And it's the same issue on both devices. Something to do with how safari is displaying the page info I imagine. Perhaps I'll try a different browser as a workaround.

Hi there!

Thanks for bringing this to our attention.
It seems I don't have an iPod or iPad...Do you have any screenshots of this issue taking place? It would be greatly appreciated.

(edit: this is a screenshot from my iPad in the Opera Coast browser, but I had to go on my laptop to actually post the image, since you have no WYSIWYG options on the iPad)
