I'm posting on my Nokia Lumia 521 on Mobile Interface right now, and let me tell you, its very unsatisfying.
sigs are half shown, sometimes the page is stretched, and spoilers NEVER work, I can't rep, and I have to use the basic text. Not very great.

I vbelieve this happened with a recent update, that disabled mobile viewers to post from mobile unless using that interface. Will this be fixed soon, so that mobile users can post on the desktop version?

the issue is that when i tap on the text box, the keyboard comes up then slides down before I can type.

The website is ran off software called vBulletin which doesn't convert nicely for mobile viewing. There is a vBulletin Mobile Suite for forum owners to add to their site but it costs money and maybe even a monthly subscription. Most users on NB use a laptop or desktop so I doubt mobile compatibility is a priority for V.

Was just browsing a bit on my phone with the Mobile version.
Spoilers never worked when I´m browsing NB from my phone :p

As mentioned, only half the signature appear (To be more precise, only the left half of each signature appears xD)
There doesn´t seem to have the star icon where you can rep people. I could report tho.

Are you sure you´re clicking on the image that links you to the certain action you want to do and not actually zooming in or misclicking it?

bout the Text box thingy: Your phone might have a little bit of latency. Meaning that, you have to tap on the text box and wait for the keyboard to load. If you constantly tap on the textbox, the keyboard will appear and then disappear suddenly.

A lot of times it has happened that the "touch" are not precise. Meaning that, for example, if I tapped on the letter "A" on the phone keyboard it ends up typing the letter "S". Same happens with the links: Sometimes I choose to go to UserCP, and when I tap on "UserCP", my phone takes me to "Forums" and sometimes it just zooms in (This is when I´m on the Desktop version in my phone)

Use NB vB4, don't use the default mobile style. If you are im default mobile style scroll to the bottom and click "Full site" or somethin.

Are you using the default mobile style skin?Cant you change to the other skins?
some forums here may override your skin choice temporarily.

Imo Its better if you change the mobile style especially If you don't have slow internet connection.

How to change the mobile style if you dont know:
go to
Control panel>general setting> scroll down to
Forum Skin
There is more than one skin in which you can view the forums. If you would like to switch to a different skin, select it from this list.

Try another browser. And yeah we are aware of that the site is not perfectly optimized for all devices and browsers as that is nearby impossible to achieve, but it does however work better in some than others.

Get an Android, download opera mini, browse like a boss... thats what i am doing, i can rep, insert smiley,font,size etc.

Mobile version is worth shit. You wont be able to use many options and the interface sucks too.

Better get on desktop version. And if ya think an NB app is gonna show up. You better start digging your grave, might be useful while waiting for it :|
