It would be great if the site were mobile friendly so that it was easy to post and peruse posts from a mobile device.
Forums like this are usually blocked by proxies on my work computer so I often use my phone to read and post to them. [wink]

Foreall. It's 2015.
Link to a second CSS called mobile.
@media only screen and (max-device-width: 480px) {
}
#wrapper {
width: auto;
}
#header {
width: auto;
}
#page {
width: auto;
}
#content {
width: auto;
float: left;
}
* {
-moz-user-select: none; /* Firefox */
-ms-user-select: none; /* Internet Explorer */
-khtml-user-select: none; /* KHTML browsers (e.g. Konqueror) */
-webkit-user-select: none; /* Chrome, Safari, and Opera */
-webkit-touch-callout: none; /* Disable Android and iOS callouts*/
}

I'm afraid that it needs a bit more work there in addition to this responsive css.

It's a fair enough start though. Other than the divs and dynamic content, this is all you need.

I almost never use my laptop in forums unless I have to type a huge response. I use the Chrome app on my HTC ONE M9 and the forum works just fine. I actually have the option for the app on another forum and don't use it, the apps always ruin everything somehow.

Not an app, a mobile site. They are indeed different things. We don't need an app for this place when you can more easily create an alternate site that's a lot more useful, and works across all devices, not just one OS.

Programming and design structure are a bit chaotic. Though they follow some logic I found that it is relatively hard and time consuming to create a theme for phpbb, let alone make it responsive. It can be done but it would need a bit of reinventing which means we can almost publish it as a fanmade update.

upgrade your mobile.
I browse this forum almost exclusively on my phone, no issues here.
The trend in web development is leaning away from mobile sites anyways. Most webapps use device detection to simply adjust the theme.
Considering the response of the administration to the broken theme, its a lost cause.
