although i do often browse boyah via shitph*ne when out of the house, i'm much less likely to actively participate unless i'm in front of a keyboard
typing and especially formatting text via touchscreen is just so awful lol
also plz vote akudood;
pc. The only way to do it.

Almost always phone
Almost exclusively phone these days
pc. when i'm on my phone i'm not actually on chrome that often to begin with anyway and i just don't really like using boyah on my phone.
pc master race
PC. I browse a lot of stuff with my phone lately, but boyah often loads so slow that I can only tolerate it by opening links in new tabs, doing something else for a few minutes, and switching back to a loaded page. Mobile browsers don't exactly have the luxury of being able to control background loading very well.
pc, this site is ass to use on a phone

agreed
Nonetheless, do our phoneposters think there'd be any benefit in implementing a more mobile-friendly skin? befuddlement
of course, the most mobile
and pc-friendly thing we could do for this site is fix our server issues, but lol (SNORKEL argh;)

I dunno works pretty perfectly on phone to me
There's so much empty space on the sides in the pc version it looks worse to me there

I feel like a lot of our server performance pains (and lack of mobile skin) can probably be attributed to SMF 1.1, which by the way isn't even receiving security updates anymore
as if boyah 2.0 is ever going to happen lol

Please elaborate. befuddlement
MAY DAY MAY DAY CRITICAL FORUM FAILURE.
Get to work Thyme.
idk man i'm not there yet
by critical i mean Internal Server Error for a month straight or smth
i already have a shitty dreamhost shared hosting account, but i have no idea how much ram and space a small forum used by 10 people concurrently at most would necessitate, and like blu said, most of our problems probably stem from how outdated the platform is
and idk which version of php the server is on but that could be a factor too
and of course, the sheer number of posts

how much ram and space a small forum used by 10 people concurrently at most would necessitate
and based on that post, which is approaching six years old and may not even reflect the current state of boyah's servers, it's about 8gb of ram and 600gb of storage
and honestly i'd be surprised to hear that that server is exclusively boyah's and isn't being shared
the equipment cost for a modernized equivalent would be like $750 (we wouldn't need the raid card if we opted for a single large ssd instead), not that i would expect anyone on boyah to cover that themselves lol
and yes, it's true that we won't really have any idea to what extent the server is to blame (although i'm confident it's at least partly to blame) unless and until we finally upgrade to 2.0 (JMV AND SNORKEL argh;)
boyah's an absolute nightmare on mobile which is largely the reason for my absence
