SuncrestReef Posted August 12, 2019 Share Posted August 12, 2019 I know a lot of you use Tapatalk here and probably for other forums too. R2R just announced removing Tapatalk support. See this post for details: https://www.reef2reef.com/threads/the-reef2reef-tapatalk-app-is-going-to-be-disabled-soon.639203/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
albertareef Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Interesting. Wonder if there any of the tweaks R2R is adopting for their mobile experience would work on our platform @TheClark @Chief Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Theirs is built on https://xenforo.com, so a completely different platform than PNWMAS. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Higher Thinking Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 Well that's lame. Why people think they can escape targeted ads is beyond me. Maybe there's a benefit to trying, not sure. At any rate, I paid $15 bucks a couple years ago and haven't seen a Tapatalk ad since. I imagine they'll see a decent drop off in user activity, but it'll slowly rebound as people transition over. Thanks for the heads up!Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bicyclebill Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I’ve been using their standalone app for close to a year or more I’d say. It works better than their Tapatalk version. But they’re also like 1000X bigger than us too. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually, I was surprised to see R2R is only 29x larger than us based on registered members: R2R = 109,929 members PNWMAS = 3,735 members No idea what percentage of those are dormant accounts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Deuce00 Posted August 13, 2019 Share Posted August 13, 2019 I haven’t been on R2R nearly as much since they redid the forum. The way it looks on my phone stinks, I need upgrade lol. Dustin Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my SM-G975U using Tapatalk I’ve dropped reef2reef myself due to a different reason: censorship and control surrounding gold sponsors. I had an issue with a gold sponsor and needless to say that is not a fun position to be in. They really do have a pay to win platform going on.
