Title: Cell phone posting .
Post by: Pine on July 19, 2016, 02:21:00 PM
Well I might have figured out a trick to keep from double posting .
What I do is to touch the screen outside of the reply box and you will see the tan border disappear .
At that time , touch the post button ( ONLY ONCE )....
Now wait,,,, could take up to a minuit but it will go .
If after a minute it hasn't gone through , touch it again .
I have found that in the second case someone else is posting at the same time .
Hope this helps , so far for me it has worked .

My problem is I can't log in on my cell phone.  It won't accept my name.  I finally have just given up on the cell phone except to go on as a visitor.  I have no problems with the computer.

Dale, just look for a used laptop at any old garage sale. Anything supporting Windows XP or 7 will work fine.
I don't even bother with my phone...too aggravating.

Screens are too small on cell phones for me.

TG is about the only thing I've found that isn't a PIA on my phone    :dunno:

I can't imagine   NOT  using my phone for TG. I've not used a PC for it in a long, long time. The most trouble I have is the auto correct...you definitely want to proofread before you hit enter.

Seriously, everything about it is easier--even posting pics.

Upon further review, maybe you guys that are having trouble should look at your settings. If you have something set up to "block cookies" or "tracking off" or something like that it could be the problem.

There is an "TG and Computers" sub forum you could ask for help in. Rob has always been helpful directly anytime a technical question comes up too. PM the guy who makes the site run; don't give up...

For some reason, I feel that comment was directed at ME.       :biglaugh:  

In all seriousness, all I use anymore is my phone.  If yours is to small, get a bigger one.  It is one of the few things I like about technology.
