Site Forum needs to be updated
Is it more is this site so Mobile Unfriendly? It shows up all out of whack on my IPAD. Even on a desktop it looks messed up like if it needs to be updated to support modern browsers or something.

My only complaint I have is the large amount of advertising, and sometimes the banners partially block comments.

Ya thats a little excessive. Advertisements in most forums get turned off when you at least your logged in.

Works great on my iPad.
I am using CHROME.
I get a little jumping as the ads load, but it's not that big a deal.
Then it levels out and flies straight!

I'm getting a little tired of the background music, too. I can only take so much "Liberace's Hip-Hop Favorites".

I run IE, no problems at all.

I have problems also on my iPad. The format and font size change on their own. Getting alot of forbidden messages. It has gotten to the point of me not being able read it at times.
This is the only site I have issues with.

Here are the specifics.

It also has random sizes between pages. It's just a poorly designed site especially with the ads. If your gonna have ads fine, but make them function well with the layout.

You mean editing forum skin from fixed width to variable? I think that fixed my issue lol. It's still off centered which annoys me big time. It's like the ads are priority and not forum content.

You need to turn off your control panel.
I just turned mine off by hitting new Posts up on the top toolbar.

8 cents per day. Even the cheapest "made at home" coffee costs more than 8 cents per cup. For the cost of 6 cups of Starbucks, you are covered for a year. You are right - priorities. Ads go away? So does the forum.
As far as "just poorly designed", I'll take that jab personally.

It's easy to eliminate your concerns about the presence and nature of the ads. It's easy to support what is frequently noted as the best moderated, friendliest, and most informational gun forum, in the world. Yes, the world. Pay Thirty dollars with a few clicks of a mouse. While your at it join the NRA from the link on this website. It won't make you smarter. It won't make you better looking. But, it will make you above average. Even if you don't support this forum financially, you have a right to your opinion. But, I'm not sure it is proper etiquette to be critical of the OWNERS of the forum. Thanks for reading. Absolutely no criticism of any posters or posts intended.
