Mobile - more moderator control

Kinetic^

Just wondering if it's possible to get more mod options via the mobile ui. Like moving threads etc. They could be there already,I just can't find then.

I think the [X] button is too easy to click by mistake on the mobile theme.

more options is always good but don't overclutter the screen.

What does the [X] do, out of curiosity. Never clicked it

I personally would like to see http://pda.boards.ie to cater for those of us using large-screen devices which can handle more screen clutter and links.

Step 1-install opera. Step 2-click menu,click enter address,click options.click current address. Type www. Let your mod powers shine.
*may not work for all mods. Some ninja skills needed. T&c apply.

I'm assuming [X] is the soft delete button, but I've always paniced after hittig it and just closed the browser lol.

I'd love a PDA version too but I think we should work on one version at a time. Mobile version be nice to improve a couple of things on first before moving onto a PDA one though.

I'd love to know where this is in the list or prioirtys in general for Ross. I know he's a busy guy trying to keep everything running all the time before he even gets a chance to get into improvements and modifications though.

Step 3 - have your service provider screw you in the bum sans lube.

Just a thought is all.

[X] is soft delete. Handy for deleting spam threads quickly I guess.

It'd be nice to develop out the mobile stuff more, but I don't think there's any plans for it yet. Just a bandaid on the mobile wound.

Edit: 1.2 million page impressions last month according to google adsense though, not to be sniffed at

Page impressions, but how many posted long threads from their mobile.

I dunno about anyone else, but I find that my read/post ratio is far different when using my phone. I still consider www.boards.ie to be the full experience. m.boards.ie is merely a handy addition to the suite. I don't need any more fancy buttons or options spoiling it.

If I need to moderate something that bad, I'll find a pc, and if it needs to be done asap, soft-delete (and maybe a PM to the user) does the trick temporarily and then deal with it later.

That'd be my personal take on it too.

There seems to be a feeling in "the industry" that the web is moving entirely mobile, though I don't see it replacing the longtext format of the personal computer, simply augmenting it.

I really think the basic options such as locking a thread should be available. Sometimes deleting might not be a relevant option.
