I can not get the site to work on my phone with any regularity. I have cleared my cookie, cache, and histories. It has been this way for months and since I mostly read the forums on my phone it has been like torture. Any fixes?

I use Tapatalk for forum usage via phone.
I recommend it over using a browser. It’s a lot faster, and more phone friendly.
+1 for tapatalk
Absolutely love Tapatalk. It is the best way to view forums on iPhone.
i have also been having intermittent problems with my iPad, guessing it is an os issue. tapatalk on my iPhone seems to work fine.
I have had an odd problem where the forum locks up on my phone when using my home wi-fi. When I switch to 3G it works fine. My wi-fi works fine 95% of the time on my phone so I don’t know what causes that occasional glitch.
I had issues as well on my iPhone 4 as well, including the WiFi issue above. I updated the OS to iOs5 and I haven’t had any issues since then.
I use my iPhone 4 browser all day at work and home on 3G or wifi I have no problems. My IPad 2 however will not load anything but the main page. With my laptop on its last leg I do all my M4’ing and posting on my iPhone. Can be very tedious. I think I will look for the tapatalk app for the iPad soon to increase usability.
We will be updating the Tapatalk plug-in to the latest version in the next day or two, but as a rule, it seems to have worked quite well here – even during those periods when almost nothing else would. I highly recommend it for those viewing the forum on mobile devices.

I downloaded tapatalk and I am still have issues. It says the server stops responding.

Looks like you made the change to the taptalk plugin.
The site is really hard to use on an iphone now without taptalk though, since every time you click a link you get the “hey, how 'bout not being a cheapskate? Buy TapTalk!” alert.
Is there any way to configure it to be less noisy? While I appreciate getting the info, I don’t have alzheimers and could stand to see the alert maybe once a day or less.
Thx!

This was the fix for me too on an iPhone 4.
Understand the frustration, but the plug-in is not configurable from our end, so there is really nothing that we can do about this.

How about spending less than $5 to support the software developers who built the application you use daily? How much is your time worth? How long did it take you to complain about a problem that could be solved in 30 seconds with $2.99?
Complaining about free stuff…sheesh.
I only get the tap talk thing after clearing my cache and history, and only when first loading.
You don’t have to use it, just upgrade to iOS 5 if you haven’t and use the site like normal.
I have tap talk. Dont like it yet. A lot is missing from posts. I’m trying it again now on my droid.
Where on the site do you go to do that ?
Nowhere. You buy the $2.99 Tapatalk app. No more advertisements.
Oh, I thought you meant m4c.
I’m using a 3GS with the latest software and don’t have any issues with the site
