luca72 Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 I suggest to introduce the possibility of replay, start a topic in Lo-Fi version Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dlf Posted July 27, 2005 Share Posted July 27, 2005 reply I think. But if your using a Cell Phone to visit the internet it would most likely be near impossible to post something in the lo-fi version of a topic/create a topic. Becuase (CIW) but the letters are 3 to a key, right? The Cell Phone probley wouldn't know weather you wanted an A,B,C. Also I think we need to consider the minutes someone has, someone may want to type like a 10 or so min reply/topic but they only have like 3 mins left till their mins are up. Just a guess (I don't personally use a cell phone) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 The way it works is that if you press "22" you get the letter "B". I forget how upper/lower case was changed though. As for minutes, prepaid I'm sure would cut you off, but otherwise it would just start charging an arm and a leg and possibly the first born child. :devil: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Falling Down Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 I agree... would be a good addition... - especially for users which are still using 56k... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted July 28, 2005 Share Posted July 28, 2005 That's what the gzip compression is for. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Why Two Kay Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Definitly make it a text link, but I think it could benefit those on 56K or even those on AOL who only get 48.8 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FancyDining Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Yes. Please add this. It would also benefit those browsing from PDAs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Yes. Please add this. It would also benefit those browsing from PDAs. Users with PDAs is the main point of LoFi. Infact, I don't think it would be easy to read a forum from a phone screen. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted July 29, 2005 Share Posted July 29, 2005 Definitly make it a text link, but I think it could benefit those on 56K or even those on AOL who only get 48.8 Those on dialup can go either way really. Speed -vs- a rich view. With the gzip compression, the true benefit would be from large amounts of large graphics (or tons of graphics of any size). If it's only pure talking with smilies, it wouldn't take too much more time to load a page. :) I like the lo-fi version because it offers simplicity, which is nice on rare occassions.

krocheck Posted August 4, 2005 Share Posted August 4, 2005 Definitely adding this for the PDA users would be helpful ... would let me post during classes :D Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Antony Posted August 5, 2005 Share Posted August 5, 2005 Yep, this would be nice for 3.0. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTPN Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 How about adding a simple link to the hi-fi version of the same page? Search engines search the lofi version, and as such when we search we end up in the lofi version, but there seems to be no easy way of getting to the hifi version of the same page to reply etc without manually removing /lofiverision from the address bar.

Wolfie Posted August 6, 2005 Share Posted August 6, 2005 Yes there is. Look at the top of the page, you'll see "Full version:" and the topic title as a link to the full version. Also, at the bottomThis is a "lo-fi" version of our main content. To view the full version with more information, formatting and images, please click here.

markquerty Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 Hi All, Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wolfie Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 A bug, well two bugs, I found in 2.0.4... 1. First any member, lets say joe foo, can be logged on and post from different IP's at the same time. 2. When logged on from two different IP's the Board Statistics:active users only show one joe foo active. Mark #1 With v2.1, it's possible to prevent someone from being logged into more than one computer/location at a time, even preventing someone on the same computer from signing in with 2 different browsers. #2 That's not really a bug. The last action taken is the last action used/shown for that member. How is it supposed to know that it's really two different people, instead of 1 person, possibly sitting next to two computers, switching back and forth? Or to know that the old IP is still active instead of only the new IP? That's where it gets complex. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolfie Posted August 11, 2005 Share Posted August 11, 2005 The point is, it reduces the amount of data necessary to send by compressing it, and therefore speeds up the transfer. :lol: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brunoXP Posted August 14, 2005 Share Posted August 14, 2005 I suggest to introduce the possibility of replay, start a topic in Lo-Fi version Very good point, it would be much better for those who don't use broadband Internet and prefer to view the board on Lo-Fi mode. Here in Brazil there are still many people that use dial-up Internet connection. :) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
krocheck Posted April 5, 2007 Share Posted April 5, 2007 Not that I was digging, but one on my members brought up how much of a pain it is to browse and post on a cell phone.Can we get some new features to the LO-FI version to enable simple browsing and posting on portable devices?Keith Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
