Thumbs down please get rid of the mobile NLOC website

since I got my Iphone and Ipod touch I visit this web site (and others) 90% of the time on it, this is the only website that sents me to a mobile version of the site and that mobile version just plainly SUCKS, lately it won't let me reply to threads, some stuff it's on spanish (I speak spanish it's just anoying to see that on website), can't go to the local sections, won't let you see if someone or who reply to a thread so if I am keeping track of a thread I need to go thru the whole thread to see if there is new posts, I can go on and on about all the stuff wrong with it but I don't have the time, I am to the point that it's not worth it to even come here, so please get rid of it or at least put a link to go to the full version, the iphone and the ipod touch can handle the full version of NLOC just fine.

It's possible you may have to change a setting on your devices.

The mobile versions are used quite a bit.

The iphone template used is VERY popular and well received as the best iphone style.

None of the mobile styles are supposed to have all the features of the full version

If you are having trouble with a section of the site, details of what EXACTLY you are having problems with will be easier to address rather than stomping your feet and declaring that it sucks

the style has been tested using Iphone test websites, which is the best that can be done since I dont own an iphone

I can no longer do a Quick Reply on my classifieds, etc... That's one of the issues I have with the mobile version.... which is a BIG issue.

I keep up with subscriptions, so when I need to reply to a Classified, etc, it does not work. I get an error "Page does not exist" when clicking Submit.

well I am not stomping my feet, there is no skin of my nose if you guys want to fix it fine if you don't want to fix it that is fine with me too, I just won't come here anymore or renew my memership since I can't access the site on my devices of choice, this is not the only lightning website.

I think as a paid member I am allowed to complain when something sucks.

That "el forro" mobile version suck, I have been complaining for a while but my threads keep getting deleted so I am not sure what it's going on there or what kind of deal you guys have with "el forro" that doesn't allowed for members to say it sucks

Saying that it sucks doesnt help anything
Saying exactly why or how it sucks helps

THis is the first Ive seen of this that I can recall.

If your threads are being deleted perhaps its your approach that is responsible.

As I stated I dont have an iphone to do any testing. Ive used the tools I have to provide an extra service to the folks using mobile devices. Cant fix it if I dont know its broken and dont know what specifically is broken.

PS I turned off the feature that detected iphone and forced it to the iphone specific style - Cant test it but your issue should have disappeared
