Security issues on iOS it seems (and on the iOS support forum, there's a bunch of people with different permissions issues). Turfed it until they get their shit together.

This is intolerable.
And in banks across the world
Christians, Moslems, Hindus, Jews
And every other race, creed, colour, tint or hue
Get down on their knees and pray
The raccoon and the groundhog neatly
Make up bags of change
But the monkey in the corner
Well he's slowly drifting out of range

I think since it's en/disabled on the forum software, there wouldn't be a way to do so for select mobile devices only.
wot?

To be fair, adolescent power fantasy tripe is way easier to write than absurd existential horror, and every community has got to start somewhere... right?

Rip, my Google-fu seems to indicate that these mayy be error messages and not necessarily security threats. So you have a link?

Thanks!

Well, there is also the issue of it showing regular users the mod only forum.

Yup, Isgrimnur could see the mod forum on his iDevice, even though it doesn't do that on Droids.

Wow, I apparently have come to rely so heavily on my Android phone to keep up with OO that I just thought the site was down for the last couple of days. I wondered why there was no message at GT about OO being offline.

After I did all that configuration to remove my signature and change my settings to not annoy the Tapatalk signature haters.

Is it possible to just back that forum up and remove it until the problem is fixed, or does the issue also allow access to passwords/accounts, etc.?

People are pissed on the support forums. There's some patches that work but they are from others not the company which I'm hesitant to install. I'd rather wait for an official fix, if you want to add pressure as paying customers let them know they suck. Not impressed with their qa to let something like this through.

Looks good to me, no access to forums I shouldn't. Seems to behave normally, as well. Thanks!

That's still very much appreciated, by the way.
