So new user new post, I'm not sure if there's already a topic on this if so feel free to move...
So this is kinda related to the other post about mobile vs. Desktop browsing. (Fwiw I HATE mobile anything except phone calls) so I feel like (because I actually did) I literally had to find back door access to register. I kept trying and entered all info to EVERY field in the registration screen I would hit "submit" button and it would say something to the effect of the location entered is not valid...ok that makes sense because NOWHERE on the screen Did it ask for a location!
I tried this several times.
I then hit the link on this forum for the "full" website interface. Still nothing.
I think what worked was to activate a setting IN MY MOBILE BROWSER (FIREFOX) that is called "REQUEST DESKTOP SITE" and I think this is what magically allowed the location field in the registration page to appear!
I'm with the other guy...mobile web serves NO purpose but to limit the functionality of good old fashioned full featured webs. Most people don't know what they are missing unless the had a Android g1 or maybe first gen I phone that when smartphones first came out...there WAS NO MOBILE INTERNET YET! AND IT WAS PEFFECTLY FINE! YOU USE YOUR DESKTOP, THE. GO TO WORK AND BROWSE IT ON THE PHONE ITS EXACTLY THE SAME. THE WAY IT SHOULD BE!
side rant home is sweet home BECUASE OF FAMILIARITY, people want to know and feel comfortable around familiar surroundings *if they are already used to it..
IN THIS CASE IT IS BROKE, SO PLEASE FIX IT. AND ID BE PERFECTLY HAPPY WITHOUT MOBILE INTERNET ALTOGETHER. WE DONT NEED ANYMORE COMPLICATION THESE DAYS. NEWER DOESN'T EQUAL BETTER!
Everyone seems to want to effect change just make SURE it's change for the BETTER.
Sorry that took so long. Thanks for reading! Please vote. So I know wether to quit my bitch'n'...
