Fonts gone weird on mobile site

181 replies

PseudoBadger · 29/11/2013 16:23

In the last few minutes, the first post on a thread (which I have highlighted) has a strange font. It makes my eyes go funny. Same thing has happened to the buttons up there at the top (Log Out; Inbox; Desktop Site). Anyone else?

I'm on a iPhone 5 using safari.

Me too. Galaxy note tab, think its on ice cream sandwich!

KerwhizzedMyself · 29/11/2013 22:26

Well that was my phone going mad.

I'm having the same problems. Also when I click on threads in on and click a reply to jump to, it goes to it but then jumps right back to the top when the thread is fully loaded.

Glad it's not just me. Chrome on Samsung S2.

MurderOfGoths · 29/11/2013 22:31

Just to add, Chrome 31 on Nexus 7 (Android 4.4) is showing the same. Font is same colour as always but has a white dropshadow effect.

Top, Reply and Bookmark aren't responsive. And if I open up a thread I've previously read and bookmarked it will only go to the first post.

Everything else seems to work the same.

Runlikeagirl · 29/11/2013 22:38

Me too. Nexus 4, android KitKat.

YoniMatopoeia · 29/11/2013 22:51

HTC1 here.

Weird white shaddow making highlighted op text unreadable.

Style sheet gone wrong?

SauceForTheGander · 29/11/2013 22:56

Me too on iphone5 - strike through looks strange and when I press "active" or threads I'm on the button doesn't blue and the screen hangs for a bit. Also of I press a post from "threads I'm on" it still jumps to the top of the page rather than going to that particular post.

AndHarry · 29/11/2013 23:06

Weird shadows for me too (iPhone 4S, safari, IOS something very old...). The 'top' and 'reply' buttons also aren't working for me.

StrattersCat · 30/11/2013 00:23

And me :(

I'm on an iPhone 5. I'm stuck on the mobile site, which I detest. Half the buttons aren't working, I can't get 'Reply' to work, and it won't change to the Desktop site.

Can't. Cope.

GoshAnneGorilla · 30/11/2013 04:23

Me too. I'm using an Android tablet and the problem is the same in Opera and Chrome.

Glad it's not just me having this issue!

TobyLerone · 30/11/2013 04:33

I thought it was just me, too.

White shadowing on all highlighted posts, making them impossible to read. Scrolling issues, including the screen jumping to the top when I click on someone's name in TIO, instead of to their post (and at other times). Buttons don't always work until I touch them 4 or 5 times, and even then they have no highlighting to say it's worked...

Android (idk which version!) on S3.

HarrietJonesPM · 30/11/2013 06:23

There's a little shadowy dot appearing over the talk button as it loads.

Can't load most of my usual threads

BuzzardBird · 30/11/2013 06:43

HTC 1 user, it is unreadable...well obviously its not or I wouldn't have been able to find this thread, but ynwim?

Me too. On samsung phone. It is the jumping to the top of the page if you have started scrolling as the page is still loading that is annoying.

BuzzardBird · 30/11/2013 07:50

And now the jumping to the top of the page has started to me too...and the shaking page :( mn is broken :(

TheBitchesOfWeestick · 30/11/2013 08:07

Me too. Weird washed out/shadow effect.

Chrome and a Samsung here.

Gileswithachainsaw · 30/11/2013 08:54

Same here can barely read it. And everyone I click on a post it goes straight back to too of thread.

TobyLerone · 30/11/2013 09:11

Argh! It's so annoying!

THIS IS RUINING MY MN EXPERIENCE, DAMMIT!

TheOneWithTheHair · 30/11/2013 09:14

Me too. Everything is a bit blurry and bookmarks don't work. If I click on a thread I then have to refresh it to see more than just the title.
