Joe, free version or paid version?
Free app version. Shouldn't matter however. Imagine if browsers like Firefox Internet Explorer or Chrome started randomly injecting ads into your online content. Then trying to back Forum owners up against the wall demanding money to remove them. They really try to put the screws to us Forum owners by getting our members accustomed to using it and then doing stupid shit and demanding a monthly fee to stop it.

Once the Forum software update is complete I will be disabling the pop-up Banner on the site as well as delisting TOO with Tapatalk. For the individuals that already have tapatalk it will continue to work. It will not be supported for new members going forward. The new native mobile format of the site will be much more user-friendly.

I attended my first senior staff meeting on Monday and had to deal with someone that speaks to everyone, our CEO included, like we've never given any thought to the ideas and topics we are presenting. I eventually went hard in the paint and shut her up. I don't tolerate people who speak to others like their idiots, especially in a room full of fully capable and proven professionals.

Same here, just noticed it[emoji35]
I paid the hijacking bastards. They changed something today. The admin dashboard for TOO on their site ads disabled like I set it to before. I tried to change it to show ads then change it back to disabled and it wouldn't let me change it back without paying them. 20170607_212025.jpg

They also added some shit around your screen name.

And it won't let me share the photo that shows it...

How's that other update coming? So we don't need these bastards.

It'll let you share the picture. It'll just gives you a pop-up that the forum has disable images uploads to tapatalk and it's being uploaded as an attachment to the forum.

A while back Forum owners could choose to allow uploads to tapatalk image servers or require images to be uploaded to the forum. The problem with allowing it to their image servers is they eventually delete them. What we end up with is a forum full of threads with all the attachments deleted. To preserve content we could require them to be uploaded to the forum. They then changed it where they wanted us to pay them to prevent images being uploaded to their server and watermarked. Since I paid them I required them to be uploaded to the forum. Now acting like the true little bitches they are tapatalk displays a pop-up that I've disabled uploads to their image hosting.


Just click OK and it'll let you attach it.

I sent them an email about it. I clicked ok and it said there was a problem. I just tried again and it said the same thing.
Doesn't matter which option I choose to upload either.

People turning left who pull out in the middle of an intersection then get pissed that I didn't stop to let them turn when the light turned yellow. Just had an incident where I went through a yellow at about 45 miles an hour and a pickup truck thought I should stop so he could turn left. Realizing he wasn't going to make it before I T-boned his ass he stopped but decided to lay on the horn. I was already on the brakes and came to a stop in front of his truck in the middle of the intersection. After a heated exchange of words back and forth out the window I was going to be damned if I reversed to let him make a left turn. I shut the car off and gave him the finger until he backed up.

We have all been there trying to turn left on green knowing when the light turns red we can go. But we also know we have absolutely no reason to expect that last oncoming car is not going to stop and let us go. Probably one of the same assholes that punches it to turn left when the light turns green instead of waiting until after oncoming traffic passes.

Or if your behind a car that's turning left, your turning right, and the guy on the other side is turning left. Pisses me off when the guy on the other side turns knowing damn well I might be going straight or turning right. When he turns left and I go right I get right up on his fuggin bumper.

What about the dickwad that pulls out in front of you to go half the speed limit? Those were the times I loved my straight pipe rolling clouds...
