Agreed. Implementing a plugin isn't always an easy task, and the bb system used here may not even be supported by tapatalk. What's wrong with the ol' zoom on your phone?

Many sites seem to be able to offer mobile versions of their web site. This would be the ideal option, rather than wasting time money and effort to support the revenue of Tapatalk.
Second post I know but this app is really intrusive the way the notification system works on the iphone, stopping the page opening until you tell Tapatalk that yet again you don't wan't to buy their product.

Good point, I actually hate the few forums that I visit on my Droid that support Tapatalk (mostly Droid forums) because of the intrusive notification system and having the decline to purchase Tapatalk every time I'm trying to figure out how to solve some Droid bug. Thankfully, I haven't noticed any other coffee forums going to Tapatalk.

I am an active member on two miata forums and adding tapatalk would be an invaluable resource as most persons now carry a smartphone. Posting is done on the fly as well as messages and things are done in real time. The days of being tethered to a desktop and or laptop are gone. Get with the 21st century. You cannot lose on this, its the proverbial next step . Not doing so would be a general regressive move as change is occurring around us as we speak and the direction is going to smartphones. JMO.

+1 I found navigating this forum on the iPhone to be a little inconvenient, lots of zooming, and adding the tapatalk plugin would be very nice for me (as I follow several other forums in tapatalk). There's some coffee forums on Tapatalk, but CoffeeGeek's my favorite! :)
I thought adding the plugin should be very easy and not invasive or cause of instability (that's what the tapatalk guys claims) ... :) I guess it must be possible to turn off the popup suggestion to use the tapatalk app to read the forum? I understand how that can be annoying ...

Tapatalk is awesome, but I don't see it happening here for the reason mentioned. This site uses custom software instead of off-the-shelf forum software like Vbulletin or others.
The forum needs a big update to better support media. The photo size limits, inability to embed video, etc are all very dated and not conducive to sharing in the modern web 2.0 broadband environment.
IMO, best bet would be to find a way to migrate the entire forum to something like Vbulletin.
