  3. Well, yeah, that's the problem, you can't xD
  4. Yeah, would be good to just add the button to get back to the web version and then focus on land protection :p

  5. Awesome! Thanks! :D
  6. Great job. I won't be using it, but I hope it will help players.

    Also, wouldn't it be easier to update the website THEN make it mobile friendly rather THAN making it mobile friendly THEN update the site THEN make it mobile friendly.

  7. Neet! Now time to get a phone :p
  8. It's really glitchy for me with words over other words and it looks pretty crazy, personally I prefer the desktop views of websites on my phone, so is there a way to make this an option?
  9. While it's great we have some support for phones, a lot still needs to be done.

    1. The dropdown menus in the menu bar should pop up and stay there instead of quickly going to another page and dissapearing

    2. The menu items WITHOUT a dropdown menu aren't clickable at all :p
  10. YES! I love this! I can check my alerts and not tap the screen 10 times and it still not do anything!
  11. I never had this issue before.
  12. Does it to me all the time, when you click the alert box it doesn't do anything. Sometimes after a few clicks it will just bring you to the latest alerts page instead of opening the box.
  13. I click once and the drop down comes up. I have never had your issue. It might be a lagging device or a lagging internet connection.

  14. Depends on phone/browser.

  15. This happens on my mom's Samsung phone, but works fine on my iPhone.
  16. Revert option will be added, and will try to fix the menu situation asap.
    Website upgrade could be another 6m+ down the road... I really have no clue where it will it fall.
    Then, the website upgrade process will likely take a week.

    We needed these changes ASAP. So I justify spending a day making baseline improvements to make Google and Bing happy. It's all part of of maintaining the website.

    I did tons of other invisible work last night too.

    Look how much feedback I received in a mere 6 hours to help improve things. The only way to know what needs to be fixed when your in the case of multiple people using different devices is to let your users at it and report things.

    I did my best attempt to make it work out of the box and be "usable" and found it to be that case. Sure some bugs, but rather us get the initial gains and work to improve rather than have nothing.

    Compared to before this is a 100% improvement to Google
    Proof: https://www.google.com/webmasters/t...inecraft.com/threads/forum-mobile-view.61392/



    This hurts our sites view to Google drastically by NOT having these new improvements in...

    So it will be opt out.

    Also messy, blue balls in text, also the adchoices add is weird

    Should be more than obvious

    Should also be more than obvious

    EDIT: and the missing recent threads button, and that posts look like one big blurb of text, the division isn't clear at all.

    EDIT2: okay scratch that most last thing, they're clear (now). :)
