Yeah, Whenever I'm mobile I always have to type in http://armorgames.com/community/. And I know the mobile one is http://m.armorgames.com/ but even when I go to http://armorgames.com/ it's still mobile mode.

I don't know about mobile forums but I am able to use the forums from my PSP.

The layout is simple enough to not need a mobile version.

Too bad I have the crappiest phone known to man, with no internet, and 250 texts per month.

As Graham said, the programming of these forums are simple enough right now, that there isn't a need to make a mobile version.

What you need is a good mobile broadband plan and a good cellphone.

My phone I have right now has wireless internet connection where I can connect to my wireless modem. I went to just Armorgames.com and it worked. Slow on loading but the forums worked!

Uh, yeah it works.

I once tried to go on AG with internet on an old 2G phone. A page like this would be fragmented into eight to ten parts, each taking 30 seconds or so to load. Headache.

That's why you use sprints 5G unfortunately it's way out of budget TT

Sure, if you have a smartphone like an Android, but not if you have a dumbphone. A plain-text version of the forums would be much better for dumbphones.

You mean 3G/4G? There is no 5G... :/

Could try getting a router and syncing up to a cable connection? That's what I'm doing with my iTouch. Kindof defeats the purpose of being mobile though.

Even if I had a highspeed internet connection, the browser on dumbphones is shit. It almost can't even handle plain text with a few images sometimes :/

Yes, but I don't think implementation of that is worthwhile enough right now.

That's because you have a smartphone, made with high-speed wireless internet in mind.

Try using internet on an old 2G phone. Last time I did, it was a headache.

I understand. Heh, what a headache.

It does.

Well than people who don't have a smart phone shouldn't be complaining. Their phones aren't made for that kind of browsing. Get a smart phone or GET OVER IT!
