Sorry, but Tapatalk will no longer be available here. Just got tired of dealing with them. I know alot of you really liked using them, but they have been a hassle for me over the years and ever since the conversion over to Xenforo(from vBulletin), TT hasn't been needed. The reason I installed it in the first place was that vBulletin was horrible at being mobile friendly. Now that XF has a responsive look that will fit in all screen sizes, TT wasn't needed anymore.
What is Xenforo? I really liked Tapatalk and spent days trying to figure out why it’s not working anymore.

Is Xenforo an app like Tapatalk? I find it difficult to read ASFN via a browser

***** (b a l l s) is also a bad word.

When checking/removing words, you might want to try checking the plural version. I know ball was fixed but since b a l l s isn't, that could be issue elsewhere.

Xenforo is the software platform that the site runs on.

OK, I randomly get the posted sceenshot. I don't know what causes it. But, I generally have to back all the way out of the forum and go back into it. This happens on my android phone (don't use the computer).

@Shaggy - please just dump the entire word filter and add manually the dozen or so words that need filtering.
It's now easier to just remove the ones that come up. Not that big of a deal. Just will take a week or so to get it correct.

I've noticed that to, but just hit refresh and the site loads. Looking into that.

Is viewing ASFN on an iPhone only available through a browser?

Will there be an app to replace Tapatalk?
There are other apps like Tapatalk out there but I found most of them really crappy. Sounds like only through a browser. Which means you will have to rely on email notifications on iPhone. Unless, someone knows of a good Tapatalk replacement that actually works. I have not run across one.

Happens on the computer, too. A refresh fixes it, but it's a bit odd.

Why not just take George Carlin's list and use those as the banned words? You have good moderators, the language filter can be adjusted as you go. Seems like this was done a bit backward.

@Shaggy this is something that needs tweaking. P+R Posts are not showing up in the New Post listings.

Why do threads in P&R not show up when you hit the New Posts button?
I think I found the correct node and added P+R in for New Posts. I think it will have to populate after adding the node, meaning it isn't retroactive.

The word K I L L shouldn't be censored, IMO.

**** the clock, **** a possession.

Few variations are allowed like kills, killer, and killed but k I l l isn't allowed.
