Yes, will do.

Yep, I'll put that mod back in.

ETA on these is EOD tomorrow ("end of day", which means somewhere between 9pm and 3am the next day :-)).

Justin and I are having this problem, but I don't know how to solve it. Here's what I wrote to him:
The server regards you as either at Max Attempts or not, and right now you're not.

Logging in [via Desktop or mobile web browser] resets Max Attempts to off.
But TapaTalk is caching the Max Attempts state. Looking into this more now.

The login system is at Max Attempts every time (I suspect) anyone tries to log in.

I'm working with my server admin to fix this now.

Ok, we fixed that. MVS login should act normally now.

Mobile: Tapatalk lets me log in, but I don't see posts. Anyone confirm this behavior?

The cookies trick works wonders :-).

Tapatalk works again for me now too. I have no idea how it fixed itself, to be honest. I'm guessing it has some sort of timed cache flush (daily), and after that event it loaded topic information from scratch, and that did it. Pure speculation. I had posted for help in the Tapatalk forum, and shortly after a Tapatalk moderator said he could view MVS topics just fine.

Don't know if you've noticed this but clicking on a post takes you to the 1st page of the post if it's a multi-page post.

Love the new colours for headings

BTW, Matt you need to fix the clock
DST does not seem to be working. It shows me an hour behind (and yes, my board preference set up is correct)
