One can hardly ignore the Taoist implications of "Fuck it, Dude. Let's go bowling."

I just wanted to say that I'm sure the centered thread titles when you're reading a thread were the tiniest bit of code, but it makes me so happy. Never knew centering could bring me such peace.

This is a fantastic app, and I use it just as much as (if not more than) the Android version on my phone. I did find a small bug, though: selecting "filter by this user" to see just their posts in a given thread only displays one page of results, i.e. up to 20 posts, then shows End of Thread. I'm on an iPad2 running iOS 6.1.3.

I don know if this were an intentional design, but when highlight quoted text is on, it only highlights the first instance, like so:

I can't seem to trigger this. It works fine on my own posts, so it's not a blanket issue with the logged-in user. And it worked fine on your posts in the thread you linked. (Whoever suggested following a copied URL when switching to Awful: I use it constantly in the simulator. Good call.)


In what way? Wrapping pasted imgur links in [img] tags?

I actually encountered the same thing with fatpat286's posts in the Retro Game mega thread in Games. Hes clearly got more than 40 posts in the thread, but it only shows the first set. Maybe that one will help.

Actually negative code; I removed the never-quite-working hack to left-align the title. I agree it looks much better centered!

Is there any chance of the YOSPOS theme selector thing coming back? Or is it in some settings I'm not seeing?

Small bug:

When you delete a thread from your bookmark list by sliding and pressing the red button you can no longer scroll down and load the second page of your bookmarks.

Clearly not a massive problem, nor one that will crop up often but I just thought I'd let you know.

I wouldn't begin to know how any donations should be split up. There's at least a dozen people with legitimate claim to a share.

My personally preferred charity is your personally preferred charity, with the stipulation that you make very clear they can use your donation for whatever they need, including administrative costs.

New minor nitpick that only applies to beta testers: If I click on a link to a forums thread in Awful Beta, it'll open in Awful :v:

Sounds like you're still using the outdated app, not the new Awful that's on the store.

I'm not sure whether you have any control over auto-correct, but it behaves very poorly with bbcode.

Pretty insignificant issue, but I changed my password using my desktop. I knew I would have to change it on my iPad/iPhone, and when I launched the app, it seemed to hang on both. I closed it on both, and upon reopening I was prompted to login. Not really the biggest thing in the world since I knew it was likely related to my password change.

Is there any way a left and right arrow can be added to the keyboard? iOS as a whole is a pain in the rear end to type with for any mistakes or edits you want to change that isn't the last word you typed.

If you have the ability to jailbreak, it is worth it just to get SwipeSelection. It lets you move the cursor around by sliding your finger around on the keyboard.

Just to check - you're aware of the magnifying glass tool for positioning the cursor that pops up if you tap and hold over some editable text, right?

Yea, a few apps with a row of custom keyboard keys also add arrows. It's handy for painstakingly perfecting a wall of text that no one will ever read.

I've tried and, so far, failed to fix this. I'm not out of ideas, just out of easy ideas, so hopefully I can come up with something. I know it's a pain, I run in to it constantly.
