Will we ever see a JBO mobile site?

I spend 90 percent of my internet time on my phone and frankly this site is a pain in the ass to navigate. Between the menu sizes and having to load 50 sigs a page I waste a lot of time just trying to surf the forums. Im not a web developer by any means so idk how much work is involved. Tapatalk makes nice forum aps. It just seems like most forums on the Internet these days have a mobile site or a Tapatalk app.

I cant be the only one who feels this way...

Forget about it. I asked almost 2 years ago and got the generic 'it's not feasible' answer.

the internet was designed for a computer, not a phone.

The Internet was designed to share information between universities. Ill never understand the people who watch porn on it. Different strokes for different folks.
Id rather carry around my phone which is always on me rather than my 15 lb laptop and charger.

Give it a few years, and people will laugh at that statement.

I rarely use my desktop or laptops anymore. Phones can do anything I would need to do on a computer.

It is possible that we may have a mobile site at some time. Right now though there are higher priority updates that still need to get done. So I can't make any promises, except to say it is on my list (my very very long list) of things to do. Its down near the bottom right now though. Demand could bump it up a little, but there are still more urgent things that need my attention.

even accesing the site on mobile safari via an ipod touch is annoying. thus wifi, thus FASTER than 4g.

idk, i dont have a problem navigating it on my phone. I do it all the time. I just zoom in to select the forum part I want with no issues. When I open a post, it automatically resizes it to fit my phone. Zero issues here...

You're @!#$ retarded. Convenience is king, and browsing on the phone is what people are doing now. Website designers/developers need to realize that and adapt accordingly. Apps like Tapatalk that adapt forums to a convenient mobile interface are the future.

im retarded because i have an opinion? lol gee thanks you dont see me calling you names for ur's do you?

it may be the wave of the future, doesnt make it any more desirable for me. id rather sit in the comfort of my computer chair, full keyboard, large screen, table i can sit drinks on if i want to and enjoy myself without cramped hands and strained eyes.

i could see using a phone for simple things like looking up a song you like or quick information you need, sure.... but sitting on it browsing the internet for hours? not for me.

I mainly agree as well. Only issue I have is the jumbo box to type a reply. I often cannot see what I am typing on my phone because the box is so big, it doesn't fit on the screen when I am using the keyboard.
