these are not workable issues unfortunately, as Ryan pointed out the forum software is the priority, we don't want to add any add-ons that could hold us back, it wouldn't be in the best interest of the community.
+1 for LFS, I agree with his analysis. I think 2+2 would be willing to give it a shot though, if its not a conflict with our forum software development and future upgrades, because I hope there would be a residual side effect of driving more traffic to 2+2 via browsers. I am using the Facebook app as the model, Facebook's app is helpful but if I only used the App to access Facebook I would pull my hair out, in reality it encourages me to visit Facebook more often due to the slowness of the iPhone.
If and when we do implement a tool like Tapatalk we would of course have to notify our advertisers, we cannot afford to piss them off, and Tapatalk's lack of banner ad implimentation does mean there is at least some risk that an advertiser might be turned off by this idea, I assume that most if not all advertisers wont mind but you never know.
