While I appreciate what you're doing with giving supporters a perk here, you have to consider what you are doing in keeping a fix to a text entry from mobile users, especially given the bizarre text entry bug with auto correct that a number of users are talking about. I'm not sure if this update would fix that in any way but right now when that bug kicks in on this sites mobile version it makes it pretty much impossible to post, one of my recent posts mostly survived but did get some crazy accent in over an A that made me chuckle since I've no idea where it could come from being that my language doesn't use those accents, so bad prediction there lol.
I'm just saying, text entry being up to date (not using 2008) isn't a great idea imo on a forum based mostly.... on text entry! Perhaps at least consider a faster rollout of the mobile version of this if any of the supporters / beta testers had previously encountered the android text entry bug but have seen its hampering nature reduced using this new software. |
Well, I also said that this was going to be for Supporters Only "for a period of time" - meaning, it won't be like this forever and it will most assuredly be opened to everyone, eventually. But doing it this way by limiting the audience, not only gives Supporters a nice new perk to play with - but it also gives me a chance to stay on top of any problems that crop up, rather than having hundreds of users pinging me at the same time because the forums are crashing...

That is awesome man don't get me wrong I completely see why you're doing it like this to make sure the rollout is as painless as possible but just where some users have been kept from using the mobile version of the site without sounding crazy.
