I guess you didn't read the post where I stated I dislike tapatalk and will likely move away from supporting it if I can find a suitable alternative.

Please move the column back to the left.
Scrolling down on an iphone (or ipad or any other touchscreen) is difficult if you use your right thumb because it catches the Recent Topics feature...and just scrolls down that section instead of scrolling down the whole page.

You know what they say about guys with short right thumbs ...

At first I didn't like the column on the left, but since I'm still a slide bar user, now that I'm a bit used to it, and since my most common actions are clicking "show unread", then scrolling down I like the left placement since it places the column and the slide bar close together

Umm.  What are you calling column and where is your scroll bar.  To me the vertical part of the site that has the User Area on top is the "column".  It moved to the right after the latest update.  The scrollbar is on the right, right?

BTW, I'll be moving the column back to the left tomorrow, just so people can contrast and compare.  Voting will be open another couple days before finalizing.

At first I didn't like the new placement of the column on the right, but since I'm still a slide bar user, and now that I'm a bit used to it, and since my most common actions are clicking "show unread", then scrolling down, I like the right placement (of the column) since it places the top of the column and the slider in the slide bar close together.  More comfortable for my mousing.

Glad you asked, brain fart on my part, above is what I meant,. The slide bar I'm refering to is basically in the far right border. and slides the whole screen up and down.

Dos it make sense now

And just like that, we're back on the left.  Does this look better or does the right side?

They're right.  It does "feel" better this way!

Ya, left does seem to be better. Not sure if it is a comfort thing or just the way it was thing. I lean left.
my new name should be Ostridge. Got my head in the sand. Going fishing and letting go of the other stuff I can't control anyway!

I voted don't care but now having seen both, I'm kind of partial to yesterday's right side.
