Forum Runner instead of Tapatalk

RealGM should use Forum Runner instead of tapatalk because it always has issues. A site that I go on has the same amount of traffic realgm has and it has forum runner which never fails and is more user friendly than tapatalk is.

And its free for the users.

I really enjoy Tapatalk (just wish it had PM support). After a quick google it looks interesting and RealGM could advertise in the app probably. Not that I like ads, but I imagine the forums generate a fair percentage of the overall ad revenue and putting them into the mobile environment now will be easier than introducing them and potentially pissing off users in 5 years.

A site that's RealgM's size that has their own app on forum runner is Grasscity. They released it for free and never have issues with it, no downtime ever as well

Thanks for the suggestion. I've never heard of that before, but it does look intriguing. We will spend some time researching it to determine what will be best for our user base.
