youre welcome to your opinion... all day long regardless if youre a Premium Member or not.. tapatalk may provide all that YOU require but it doesnt provide all that PIXTUS requires... that is the reason there is an app in development as I have mentioned earlier.

there have been changes that have been made to the site over the past several days that many may not approve of and/or like... i cant please everyone but I and only I know what I am envisioning for PIXTUS and I know what pieces need to be in place in order to make that vision a reality....

I dont wish that you'd just sit there and 'shut up' but i do ask that you trust me and give me the benefit of the doubt that I may know what I am doing....

and if for some reason you decide not having tapatalk is a major deal killer for you and you no longer want to be apart of Pixtus then thats your decision... if that is your decision then ill respect it and I'll gladly refund you your premium member monies so that there is no loss on your end...

I think that an explanation of what benefits will come as a result of a custom app would have gone a long way....maybe not. Not that you owe me or anyone else anything. I don't like the changes at all. I think TPF runs the big risk of losing the intimacy it had as a regional bulletin board. Only time will tell if the influx of a national audience will over run the board and create a positive or negative change. I am not requesting a refund as that was a donation I made to you and it came with no strings attached. I will however probably hold off making another donation until such a time as I can see if this is still something I want to watch and/or participate in. I hope that the end result is all that you hope it will be.

Yes... explanation of features would be good but I can't show all of my cards... =)

Soon.... soon...

failure is not an option for me... there is no back up plan.. the site will succeed. just stick around and see what becomes of it!

those that have jumped ship early because of the name/region change will be missing out but oh well..

thanks

Can't jump ship now... I just re-upped! :) I look forward to what you have planned for us!

It's about advertising.

No jumping ship for me, just in need of something native for my mobile pleasure.

I sure hope there is an option for no ads...

Tapatalk is now activated for Pixtus.

It seems the one hangup on me using Tapatalk was that I did not like is the fact that uploaded mobile images were hosted on THEIR server which then means some of our content would be dependent on someone else's existence. Not good.

I rechecked recent Tapatalk app and tested it and now I see it allows us to uploads images directly to the Pixtus server.

That's great news for both you tapatalk users and myself as an admin.

Thanks. I rely on Tapatalk while traveling. I travel every week for my job.
