Future of Tapatalk and COAR-15

[theGinsue]

Correct- I just use the browser, whether on a computer or on my phone. Why do you need something else? What is the advantage?

I'm in the same boat. here. Laptop, desktop, or phone, I just use a standard web browser to access this site.

After trying it a few times when we first implemented it here, I never the attraction.

As I recall, J is the one who originally set the site up to be able to access it through Tapatalk. I keep a fairly close eye on the site email and we haven't received any notifications from Tapatalk (such has an email stating they're changing anything that might require effect us --- or anything else.).

If we hear anything that could effect member experiences, we'll let you know. Until then, I can't say I'd be concerned about it at all.


ETA: After reviewing all of the provided examples, it seems like they're all using a "form letter". I wonder if this is legit or a hack into Tapatalk itself to present a false message.

Thanks. Too bad they are vague in their reasoning.

If you're unarmed, you are a victim.

Does the notice specifically name COAR15?

Are those of you getting the notice using free version or paid?

No it does not mention COAR-15, but with the mass exodus from Tapatalk I decided to reach out to see if our admins had input.

Thanks for weighing in. I frequent many forums on mobile, but COAR-15 the most. I hope it's just BS, but I've been alerted from three different accounts (registered under different emails.)
They are obviously form letters and I just noticed each references the same address in Canada at the bottom. It's interesting they all direct you to try another mobile access point. One with terrible reviews!

The whole experience in general is just quicker and easier to navigate, especially if you?re always busy and on the go. I?m not sure I?ve been on the forums through a browser in years.

I don't even know what Tapatalk is or what it does. When I want to visit a forum, I go to the forum.

For now, it seems most are coming from Verticalscope hosted sites. All the same basic canned letter. My first thought was scam/spam but it's hard to tell with the limited info available right now.

Never used it, on the phone I just open the browser and a saved link.


But also I’m one of those people who doesn’t like having a whole bunch of apps. K.I.S.S.
