If you'll download the Tapatalk app on your phone, you shouldn't have that issue on mobile anymore.

thanks, Bortaz. Glad to be here and I think this will be a good place to talk Astros baseball. I am ready for a World Series repeat.

Coach, I did get to congratulate his 500th post of nothingness. Only a flub fan could pull something off like that. He may totaled all of 10 words if you added all 500 of them together.

People like Skippy are the reason I can't keep moderator powers. Ha.

Glad to see that a lot of the regulars seem to have found their way here. Is this going to be a temporary refuge or a permanent home though? I like the message board format for baseball much more than reddit but it might be a bit hard to attract new posters and maintain an active forum with a standalone board like this.
In any event, I'll continue to post here for now.

Great to reconnect with everyone here. What turds at mlb.com... and with Manfred's stinking signature there on the page that told us all to get off his lawn.

Apparently a new law got passed Friday stating that a website would be responsible for any illegal activity that transpires on their message boards. I've heard that ESPN forums, Craigslist forums, as well as some subreddits were all shut down yesterday. It wasn't just us. I'll mostly be on reddit with a possible check in here from time to time. In my experiences, I've found that these smaller boards like this don't generate the traffic flow to keep it active enough. I always liked visiting the message board because there was always a new user poking his/her head in and stirring the pot. I came for the shenanigans and comments. I guess we'll see how it goes. Edit: Test to see if can be edited any time.

I much prefer this format to Reddit and Astros Baseball Talk/Astros Daily discussion forum. Much simpler. Less clutter. More user friendly. I posted the link to this site to the Astros Baseball Talk/Astros Daily board. Hoping the folks from our old board who show up there will see the link and head over here.

I like this forum as well, just need to figure how it works....I may be as bad as Sherwin, on being tech savvy.

Nice site, it will take me awhile to figure it out..but I like what I see. It's especially good on the computer. There are a small number of adjustments we can make (including color), plus there are add-ons that you can get to add stuff. We need to decide what everyone wants to do about cussing. We can limit it systemically, or just allow everyone to police themselves.

If you'll hit the orange circle at the bottom of tapatalk (mine has a white arrow) you won't keep quoting everything.

And if you're on a computer, just use the Quick Reply thing down at the bottom right under the last post.

Cussing should be allowed...Along as it used in good taste....meaning not cruel...slapstick ok, fun little jabs, sure...but not to the point you are being Andrew Dice Clay....

I got that part....if want to directly post to what some said, you create a post...and then very cool thing on that feature, it copies the original posts you are referencing...if you want just say something in general, like you said, just scroll down to quick post....cool feature.
but still Hatch can't get lazy on the prediction thread and create a post and then put his prediction as comment to it...has to be a copy the whole thing, paste and insert his prediction in the appropriate area, ; just like everyone else...

If you quote a long post, but are only replying to a part of it, you can also erase the portion you're not replying to. For Astrodoug's 9000 word essays, for instance.
