    Where is the both option? I'm mobile most of the time, but some things are just too big of a headache w/o a computer.

I'm just curious as to the split between computers (Windows/Mac/Linux) and mobiles/tablets for playing Torn. I know we're living in a RESPO world, but I find myself wondering if it was actually worth the hassle for Ched & co, or whether they should have just stuck to regular browsers on computers with mobile being a bit of an afterthought. For me, mobile is mostly just logins to train and do crimes, with most of everything else being based on an actual computer.

Curious as to what it is amongst you lot.

I'm not one for using a phone but I did for a short time to help test the new Android app. It was a better experience than I had predicted. My previous phone was a Windows phone and was rubbish for browsing.

Both, depends on the situation.

Mobile is for on-the-go stuff for me, while I'm travelling somewhere, or while I'm at college, a couple of taps and clicks and Im done..

To get a whole day wasted, computer's the way to go.

Tell us more, if you're able...very interested.

The hardest part on mobile is remembering which window is which. Did you do any chaining? You're at war with us, but don't think you've attacked me yet (wink, wink)

Edit: forum formatting suxxxxx! Chopped off my wink

When you guys say RESPO I dunno what you mean, if you mean layout responsiveness then of course it is something that should have been done, wouldn't call this a good website if it wasn't responsive, we live in a world where mobile phones and tablets are a big deal but due to their smaller screen sizes you really can't expect to display content the same way you would on a desktop or laptop. It makes things very difficult for the user, especially for people with bad eyesight.

So yes it was worth the hassle and I really don't see this as something worth discussing about, seems like something you talk about on a rainy day when you have no where to go and nothing to do
