@LegendBegins In my case, literally anyone I know with iOS whose browser has been mentioned or I've seen has switched. Then again, I'd also say there are notably more Androids than iOSes...

Most people I know have switched to Chrome on iOS.

ALSO: The post writing form needs to be able to scroll. It can be scrolled, but it is clunky and not easy to do. Could a scrollbar be added when necessary on small devices? I'm not sure it'll fix the issue but it wouldn't hurt.

The post scrolls fine for me when swiped (desktop version) - in my experience, catching a scrollbar is a lot trickier...

<Snipped quote by Ellri> Until I came to RPG, I never called the character's description a sheet, and I've been in the RP world for 12+ years now. CHAR is an abbreviation for something that all roleplayers know, a character. The character description has many names. Character sheet, bio(graphy), app(lication), design, blueprint, etc. A newbie to RPG may never have heard the term CS before, so it would be completely un-intuitive what that tab was for. Keep it as CHAR.

@Captain Jordan

The exact opposite for me - been RPing well over a decade and hardly ever even seen those referred as *other* than CS's and the half-word abbrievation just looks odd to me. Char is a data type; it has nothing to do with RP'ing. It isn't hard to learn one potentially new term when half the site uses it. When in doubt, tooltips. I see text on tags is now black. I approve. (Now to do the same with other buttons of similar color... If there was a criticism in regards to the black text, then I think the shadow effect remnant of the white text (?) needs to be removed - it simply makes the text appear a bit fuzzy.) Preferred the old look of the pagination buttons. Also, those currently highlight to a rather unpleasant white. I also agree on the "Go -->" buttons - these look a bit ... unrefined?

@Mahz: Mobile version only. Desktop looks OK. I could zoom mobile version in, but I could not zoom out any farther than it started me out with. If I remember to, I'll check whether the anomaly is still there tomorrow and see whether I can screenshot it.

The Prophecy

Copper coins exist as currency on Melenian Isles, but not Rodoria ... I am sort of inclined to think a random inn in Rodoria would simply not accept those (or any other coins but rodlin)... (In any case, it is still preferable that you left handling the NPC's Jack created to Jack.)

The Prophecy

I'm pretty confident that he'd get a better place than a floorspot under the stairs for two rodlin ... unless the barkeep can tell he's foreigner and decides to rob him blind. Or perhaps the bar is full already and the barkeep would scoff something along those lines? Or he'd offer to throw out someone who only paid one rodlin? How'd I know? I'd figure the most reasonable thing to do would be to simply cut the post short where he drops the coins on the table and let Jack handle the rest, as he said he would. His NPC's and all.

The Prophecy

One rodlin (rodlin are both silver and the local currency) is for what you can get a place that can serve as a room to sleep in with probably no(t much) more than a cheap wooden chair, just as cheap small table and a something that can function as a bed (bugs may or may not be included in the price) in a place like this, I'd figure (which is to say, I derived that much from what Jack said earlier). Not sure how quickly morning would arrive, though... Zerul-part is waiting on Merc for the time being, Borderhouse is wrapping up (Nessa's turn now, I believe), but there'd still be the reception in Zerul and probably some other stuff before they can turn in for the night (I also predict it is a different inn they are staying at, perhaps the one I'on wanted to put Ixion and Morgan into - even if their acquaintance hadn't organized anything, this time Aemoten would probably send sparing money for long just so that he and his group can get some decent well-deserved rest). Reading post now...

Edit: Wait, what text are you talking about? I was assuming post text, but are you talking about headers/subtitles because yeah, I need to add code that scales them down on smaller devices.

I was talking post text, yes.

I could build a convenient zoom feature for the guild, but I was under the impression that browsers solved this issue with their built-in zoom function. Though it's possible that the default is too small for most people. I'll have to look into that.

@Mahz

I think you misunderstood my issue... With "three-four times bigger than I'd normally have it" I was saying that the text was too big. It was huge! Enormous! Gigantic! It barely fitted three words on a line, especially with the wide margins on either side. Heck, the font was bigger than the one on my PC screen (and PC screen is 1.2 meters away from me, much farther than my arm with my cell phone can even reach)... I was trying to zoom out, but it wouldn't let me. Edit: Tag ate space.
