Hmm fair enough still abit of a controversial grey area still it would make life easier as the plus side is push notifications so I know when people have posted after me and such forth

Maybe we will get one maybe not I know where my vote sits

most phones have the internet wich alows you to veiw the webpage as you would on the computer, the only part that is different is pictures dont change size, and you also have the "new" button next to threads when someone has posted...

I see people aren't getting what I see.

If your bothered about notifications going off then silence them but at least when you glance at your phone you will know there's one there

set up another hotmail email purely for this website, and change your email on your profile to the email youve just made then you will get the notification but because you dnt use that email it doesent matter that you have a million emails notifying you there has been a thread.

end of the day JV has no intention of making an app (unless his opinion has changed since the last time this thread poped up which i highly doubt) so its never going to happen. unless someone else is an app builder and jv gives them permision to build an app for this site.

In real English?

An app is totally unnecessary.  Phones have browsers, browsers give you access to the interweb, this forum is on the interweb.

Or you could get out more and stop fretting.

From what I see the majority was a yes but it don't really matter I was only asking people's opinion but I guess there's certain guys in here that should really be on an english dipolma forum they seam more interested in my broken silly iPhone mistaked typing than what the forum is actually there fore

Bit silly getting all fired up over a poll on a forum anyway I said my bit. I ain't interested in hearing nonsense about how I might of over stepped the mark could get "reported" this that and the

What over someone who is correcting your spelling mistakes?
If you run a forum before, how frustrating is to read in vicky pollard language?.
Stick around get to know other people on here first, we all can't get on from the start mate  :smiley: 
You didn't rise to it in the beginning so why start now!

that was the whole reason for asking about the application for the forum, i don't get on well using my iphone to type at the best of times and all of sudden i become a target of poor grammar,

im not really rising it to it pal, just not really into the whole singling people out thing, no i'm not tarring everyone with the same brush as im sure there's plenty of decent people around but certain people ruin it for me.

anyway im done with this topic overall the votes show people would like one so that answer my question, il carry on using the site an forum and see who i get on.

Thanks
