Nice photo with the little one MP.

@Qinhan:

A rather odd announcement considering my profile pic but everyone that has the opportunity should go and see The Interview.  We were all born with certain inalienable rights, like the freedom to laugh at stoner comedies and mock overweight dictators with stupid haircuts.

like this asswipe?

It's official.  I'm feckin mad.

Just come back from a 1.2Km swim (30 mins).  Sea temperature was 8.8C.

I stood under hot shower for 20 mins, lit coal fire and am still bloody cold…..

Holy crap Giles. Have some soup and tea!

[georgeel]

Looks like one of those Nazi scientists experiments…

Don't say that Georgio - ze loony German(s) might be watching!..

[501IH]

The loony Germans are nearly always watching. Some of us even have mastered the "th", although a certain esteemed member surely will refuse to believe that.
How about making that "some mad scientist"?

[Seul]

^See!..

Do not update Tapatalk! It's fucking terrible now. I'm not sure what they were thinking.

Timeline now opens with this. Who's couch is this?

And now with this huge confusing blue menu for each post. It takes up twice as much space as before.

How do you guys view the forum? I am mostly on Tapatalk on iOS within Timeline. When I'm on the computer I read the recent posts thread.

@JCMx800:

I updated. IT IS TERRIBLE!!!

First time I ever wrote an app review. Pretty bad when you have 172+ one star reviews the first day you release an update.  I'm assuming there are more because mine hasn't shown up yet.

[sabergirl]

Yikes. Thanks for the warning. Good thing in really lazy about updates.

Mine auto updated as well. WTF?! I can't navigate for shit! Where is everything? ugh.

[grandmasterben]

The craziest thing to me is that it was someone's fucking job to update this and they thought this was a great idea.

This is the stupidest shit I've ever seen. I'm more annoyed by the atrocious design than the fact that it makes reading anything a bitch.

Tapatalk seems to pull this kind of stunt pretty regularly.  I turned off the auto update function over a year ago when I did this:
@Chris:

Uninstall the craptacular new version, then go here to download the classic version.  You'll have to change your default Android settings to allow non-Play Store programs to install, but the whole process only took about 5 minutes for me.  Totally worth it.

Unfortunately, it seems they took down the file for the old version and a few minutes of Google-fu haven't turned up another source.  It amazes me that they continue to make it worse and still remain in business.

EDIT: Looks like you can uninstall and go back a couple of versions if you go here:

Caution- I haven't done it, so I don't know how well it will work.

[grandmasterben]

They've been begging for me to write a review for the app. They got one!

[louisbosco]
