I was on this site a long time ago probably about 8 - 10 years ago and I may even have been banned for those playing at home I can't remember but back then apps weren't a thing nor was accessing forums on your phone so when I signed back up to CSC which I did because I liked that there wasn't as much traffic as other forums (although it defiantly has died down since then which is disappointing) I didn't think it would be a desktop only site.
I dont think the site is not usable because it is it is more that it's just a hindrance and not very user friendly and i know personally I will probably lose interest after a while.
Fair enough. Do you ever access the site from a computer ?
It would take a lot more than the lack of a mobile app for me to lose interest in the site, but that's just me.

Drop Spanner a PM outlining your suggestion. He's a busy man but he'll be able to determine whether what your suggesting is viable.

While we are talking spanner..
Can we get him to change the default code for Video?
Each time you click on the video icon, it defaults to 200x200, can we have that changed to standard 560x315.

Just ask him about your suggestion for starters.
I'll direct him to this thread next time I see him online as there may be others.
A lot will depend on the time involved to set these things up and whether he can spare it.

Keyboard warrior you... ????
I have a laptop, but it only gets fired up to do my accounts for my business and to do my BAS, everything else I do on my iPad or Mobi.
In fact on the odd occasion that I do post from my laptop it’s a pain in the arse because my iPad throws commas and stuff in, generally in the right places ???? whereas on the laptop I’m always going back to insert them manually... first world problems ????????
Edit: Have you actually looked at your wife’s banking app ?
Watch her make a payment or even just check the account balance and then try do the same on the full www site on your Mobi, it’s chalk and cheese.

Yes, the auto suggest spelling and grammar that you get on mobile devices is pretty handy, but it softens you up and makes you lazy.
I do all the banking for the family (from my desktop), so my wife has never used her apps, or maybe she's used them once a few years back.

Yes! That is something that is annoying my browser doesnt autocorrect nor does it put punctuation in where it needs to be. I never put punctuation in my messages because im so used to my phone doing it for me and im not particularly interested in doing it now
Ive also sent a msg to Spanner, hopefully he can do something about atleast giving us the option.

Unfortunately, those stream-of-consciousness posts can be hard to read, and one is sometimes dissuaded from doing so. In order to optimize communication with the other humans, a little extra effort is occasionally required.
Or as I like to say, "Camarades, encore un effort !"
