I personally hate mobile versions on 99.8% of sites. Including Amazon!
 Takes away all the functionality of a site.

For those not on Tapatalk, only 5 of the 40+ posts to date DON'T have the Tapatalk symbol by their names.

It's an incorrect statistic as mentioned in another thread. Anyone who tries out Tapatalk (even once) will have it by their name..

Consider joining the 75% by switching over to the regular site.

Advantages include:
  • Get the real experience, vote in polls and read up the wikis!
  • No more annoying (inaccurate) notifications, experience the tranquility without the annoying buzzes!
Been on TT for ages but never set any notifications.
My emails dont either vibrate as I will see it a few minutes later either way.
Small steps to not letting a phone control you.

I use Tapatalk for this and several other forums.
No alerts and no emails and no ads (I think I paid for pro a few years ago).
Main reason I do it is because it remembers where I'm up to in each thread. Often I'll want to catch up but do it in short spurts, s la uncle john

Hit the new button next to any thread, it will take you straight to where you left off.

I could be wrong, but that may only take you to new posts since you opened the thread last, not where you decided to stop reading.

Care to be a bit more specific?

if I'm understanding correctly, TT will allow you to stop reading a thread in the middle, then allow you to pick up at that spot later.

If I open a thread and read half way through the newest posts and then close it, are the rest of the posts that I didn't finish reading considered "read" on the site? The next time I click the "new" button doesn't it take me to the newest posts after all the posts I opened, even if I didn't read them all?

Exactly.

Especially useful for new members who find thousand page threads and want to read through it all in multiple sittings

As long as your reading starting from page 1 and going up the site will keep track.
