Once again my apologies if this is already mentioned but, more mobile based site. Mobile is the future and right now i'm on a driod and have a difficult time reading stories. I have to scroll around all the stuff to the left and right and all the drop downs in the main navigation are a mobile no-no.
Once again, all with respect to the fantastic job you are doing.

Hey Mr. Gav...I don't know if this has been suggested before, but how about some sort of delay feature when somebody tries to delete their account...
I was thinking perhaps when someone hits the "delete your account" button, it prompts them 48-hours later with "Are you sure?"
I'm sure you've noticed, but there seems to be quite a few cases where someone deletes their account taking all their stories, comments, whatever with them...only to show up back within a day or two...
Sometimes I think someone deleted me from their friends list, only to find out they deleted themselves...
Btw, I did a little experimenting earlier...that new "grey line" feature seems to only indicate that you viewed a story, not that you actually read it...
Do you think you can work on that???
And how would you differentiate between a view and a read? By duration?
I think most people do actually mean to delete their account (after prompted, are you sure). If it was me, and I wanted to remove myself from the site, I would want to make sure it was done there and then, and not have to wait for a delay.
Stop the idiot Moderator from approving stories I posted 2 years and stop said same idiot from moving
said story to a separate place from chapter one ... my hackles are raised
Seems like that could have been handled privately. Bundle of joy you are, LOL.
Which do you think is easier, to donate time and effort to make the site as good as it can be? Or take personal shots publicly at those that do?
I haven't read the whole thread so forgive me if I repeat.... on my profile page when i'm notified that someone posted in a forum thread. When I click on it, can it go directly to the last page or post instead of page one of the thread?
When the debate is lost, slander becomes the tool of the loser. Socrates But on topic. Would it be possible to have a better search function for stories?
Be able to search on title or tags or just everything and then maybe be able to order them on views, rating or something more. I think it would be pretty helpful with the amount of new stories added every day.
I've been thinking that I would like to be able to click on a member's name (in the sender box) when they sent requests and be taken straight to their profile page where I can choose to accept their invite or not (check a box that says 'accept' or 'delete' and which one you choose takes you back to inbox after.
I like to take a stroll through a member's profile and found myself having to do four things just to accept or not (opening up mail, checking out profile, going back to messages to accept/delete, back to messages and doing it all over again).
If that is possible Gav, that would be great & save a lot time to do other stuff!
Image gallery: public and private,
In your private gallery: do you have the option to choose which friends get to view your personal photos? If not, could you make it a function?
Say for example when I add a friend I would like to get to know them a bit better/feel comfortable before I let them see my personal pics.
Can we get a "like" button? I want to be able to "like" things like the post above me. I like that!
