Is there a mobile app...
Dear Spare Editor, It would be lovely to be able to have an edit button so posters can correct spelling mistakes or more pertinently auto-correct mistakes. Many forums work well with edit buttons, and...
In between cooking a full roast (pulled pork, veg crackling and so on) for my mum and family, I've been looking at this advert thing. Following suggestions from Gromit, I did a couple of experiments...
I feel sure it would be a simple matter for Answerbank to inform recipients of 'Best Answer' that they have been awarded such. Today I was awarded a BA but could have been unaware that such was the...
Has anyone used this site and is it safe to use and easy to get their 'Offers'?
Is there an app for my Samsung phone?
As the news section is getting a little bogged down with the subject.
Under the (good) old system, I could click on the header to the categories list and get ALL sub-categories exposed - this was quite useful when unsure of where to post. (It also gave a very fast...
Anyone use mobile version of AB on an android phone? Mine times out on any searches. Desktop version runs ok.
Thanks...

Ed- have you considered a temporary separate Gloating topic for the next few weeks? Subsections could be Rubbing Your Noses In It and Sour Grapes- Get Over It. It might leave the News topic as an area...
Ed, could I please express the view that there are far too many sub topics? This makes it tedious, particularly on the mobile site, when you are perusing the threads. For example does 'Motoring'...
One of the regular spammers, probably a bot, posts links in the title box. As links don't work in the title box I wonder whether it would be easy to program AB to simply reject a post with just a link...
When a well-known person dies this site ends up with similar threads in 2 or 3 different topics. Should there be a separate topic just for deaths?
I have asked this before and you showed interest Ed, but nothing has changed. In multi page threads, when one reads down the various posts and comes to one that requires a response, why after posting...
Or has Christmas started early?
