God forbid the post I want to quote already has a quote in the post. It makes my entire browser flip out trying to select what I want.

ETA: I use safari btw. Had the same problem with Google chrome app on my iPhone though.

Do you read at a first grade level or something?

It used to work decently. I'd have problems here and there trying to select exactly what I wanted. Idk if it's the new website format or iPhone update (I don't have the most recent. 8.1.3 I think is what I have. I'll check in a few).

Ever since then if it doesn't have a quote, it works. If there is a quote in the post, it'll highlight the entire post, including the quote and time stamp. If I try and shorten it using the circles, it flashes back and forth from the entire post to just what I want, really quickly. Sometimes my browser will scroll down and i can't scroll back up. It's weird.

I'm not going to switch phones because of one website.

My iPhone works in every other regard, as intended. Chicken does seem to hate apple though. Every time an iPhone user has a problem he chalks it up to "it seems to be an apple issue, not us"

Cool. That's convenient.

my only issue with apple is how they suck you into their ecosystem

there's a reason they don't make an iMessage app for other phones.

IDGAF what kind of phone you have, honestly I IDGAF about any brand of anything you have just saying that my Android works so you can GFY



I was going to tell you what's wrong but since you resorted to name calling I'll let you figure it out.

Because it is Mobile Impossible the mobile form of Mission Impossible

As always, should you or any of your I.M. Force be caught or killed, Dhillip will disavow any knowledge of your actions. This tape/disc will self-destruct in five seconds. Good luck, CNB.

I've been having the same problem with posting images. I click on the images icon and it goes back to the main screen.

Because you're too lazy to input the UBB code properly?

I honestly don't know why y'all use the mobile version at all. I keep my phone in desktop.
